How Compensation Works

To receive compensation for an injury or accident you suffered, another person must be at fault. This is commonly due to negligence by another where they have failed to take proper care in a certain situation.

Sometimes things are more complicated, and the injured person may have also contributed in some way to the accident/injury. In that case, South Dakota applies a “comparative fault” rule where the amount of compensation a person can receive from the partially at-fault party is reduced by the percentage they are determined to have contributed to the accident/injury.

Compensation is available for economic losses (medical expenses, lost wages) and non-economic losses (pain and suffering or trauma) due to the accident. The exact compensation available depends on a number of case-specific factors.

Time Frames to File a Belle Fourche Personal Injury Lawsuit

The statute of limitations requires lawsuits for personal injury to be filed within three years of the date of the accident. If your claim is against the government, the lawsuit must be filed within one year.

In many cases, a trial is not the best course of action, and a settlement process may be more beneficial. Settlements involve the injured person’s attorney filing the appropriate paperwork and negotiating with the other party’s insurance provider to arrive at an appropriate compensation figure for the injured person. If settlement fails, that does not prevent the injured person from going on to trial.
