Dillon Beach Personal Injury Lawyers

1. Duty of Care

The defendant owed a obligation to the plaintiff to act reasonably.

For instance:

– A driver’s duty to obey traffic laws and operate their vehicle safely.

– Keeping properties safe for guests.

2. Breach of Duty

The defendant failed to uphold their duty of care by acting negligently (or neglecting necessary actions) in a way that a reasonable person would not under similar circumstances.

Common breaches involve:

– Running a red light or speeding.

– Ignoring a hazardous condition on a property.

3. Causation

The plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant’s breach of duty directly caused their injury. This involves two types of causation:

Actual Cause: The defendant’s actions were the clear cause of the injury (e.g., running a red light caused a car crash).

Proximate Cause: The injury was a foreseeable result of the defendant’s actions.

4. Damages

The plaintiff must have experienced real harm or losses due to the defendant’s actions.

This can include:

– Bodily harm.

– Emotional distress.

– Monetary damages such as medical bills or lost wages.

Demonstrating all four elements is critical to winning a case. Don’t navigate this process alone. Our Dillon Beach Personal Injury Lawyers are here to fight for your rights. Call us at 866-846-5955 for a complimentary case review.
