Under certain circumstances, the time period for you to bring an automobile injury claim may be tolled or delayed. This could occur if the person injured in the automobile crash was a minor at the time of the crash. The Statute of Limitations will not begin to run until the child turns 18 years old in most circumstances. Temporary insanity can be used to toll the Statute of Limitations in very rare circumstances. That being said, the bottom line is that in 99% of car crash cases that occur in South Carolina the Statute of Limitations will begin to run from the day of the car wreck. You should always seek the advice of an experienced personal injury attorney immediately after a car crash.
