Carlos Baleba's stunning effort clinched three points for Brighton in an enthralling five-goal game at Amex Stadium.
The midfielder curled the ball into the top corner in added time to decisively swing the pendulum in the direction of Fabian Hurzeler's team and give the Seagulls a first Premier League win in six matches.
Yasin Ayari had given the home side the advantage in the first half with a brilliant strike before a second-half comeback from the Hammers looked to have turned the game on its head.
Mohammed Kudus restored parity soon after half-time with a close-range finish before Tomas Soucek powered home a header.
The home side levelled again through Kaoru Mitoma and then, with almost the final kick of the game, Baleba fired powerfully past West Ham goalkeeper Alphonse Areola from outside the box to snatch all three points for the Seagulls.
