Proving Liability/Negligence

To prove negligence in your car accident case, we must establish four key elements:

  1. Show a duty of care. This duty means that someone has a duty to act in a safe and responsible manner to avoid causing harm. 
  2. Demonstrate a breach of duty. While every car driver owes other drivers and road users a basic duty of care, the plaintiff must typically prove that the other driver was negligent in a personal injury claim or lawsuit. This could mean driving drunk, speeding, or other negligent behaviors.
  3. Show that the breach caused your accident. The other party may try to say that your injuries and losses are unrelated to their actions, or that you would have gotten hurt anyway. It’s our team’s job to prove this wrong.
  4. Prove that you suffered injuries as a result of the other party’s actions. Our team will provide proof of all of your economic and noneconomic damages.

By proving all four of these elements—duty, breach, causation, and damages—we can build a strong case for negligence and fight for the compensation you deserve.
