Leg Injury Value in South Carolina Workers’ Compensation
A leg injury can make standing, walking, or even sitting at a desk painful and difficult. In South Carolina, the loss of a leg is valued at 195 weeks of benefits.
For partial impairment, benefits are awarded based on the percentage of loss. For example, if your leg is determined to be 50% impaired, you may receive 97.5 weeks of compensation. That’s nearly two years of wage-replacement benefits.
But leg injuries often come with secondary effects—pain in your back from limping, difficulty driving, or the need for long-term physical therapy. Insurance adjusters may not automatically consider these consequences. That’s where an attorney can push back.
Smith & Beckey’s team helps workers show the true scope of leg injuries, from fractures and surgeries to knee replacements and chronic pain. With us on your side, you’ll have someone making sure your settlement matches the reality of your recovery.
