Greenacres Personal Injury Lawyers

1. Duty of Care

The defendant owed a legal responsibility to the plaintiff to avoid causing harm.

Examples include:

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

– A property owner’s duty to maintain safe premises for visitors.

2. Breach of Duty

The defendant violated their duty of care by acting negligently (or omitting action) in a way that a prudent person would never under similar circumstances.

Common breaches involve:

– Traffic violations such as speeding.

– Ignoring a hazardous condition on a property.

3. Causation

The plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant’s breach of duty led to their harm. This requires two types of causation:

Actual Cause: The defendant’s actions were the direct cause of the injury (for instance, a red light violation directly caused a collision).

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

4. Damages

The plaintiff must have suffered tangible harm or losses caused by the defendant’s actions.

This can include:

– Physical injuries.

– Psychological trauma.

– Financial losses such as medical bills or lost wages.

Establishing all four elements is necessary to achieving success in an injury claim. Don’t navigate this process alone. Our Greenacres Personal Injury Lawyers are ready to advocate for you. Call us at 866-846-5955 for a free consultation.
