Madera Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

1. Duty of Care

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

Examples include:

– Drivers following traffic laws and driving responsibly.

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

2. Breach of Duty

The defendant breached their duty of care by acting negligently (or omitting action) in a way that any reasonable individual would never under similar circumstances.

This can look like:

– Running a red light or speeding.

– Ignoring a hazardous condition on a property.

3. Causation

The plaintiff must show that the defendant’s breach of duty led to their harm. This involves 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 real harm or losses due to the defendant’s actions.

This can include:

– Pain and suffering.

– Emotional distress.

– Monetary damages such as medical bills or lost wages.

Establishing all four elements is essential to achieving success in an injury claim. Don’t try to go it alone. Our Madera Motorcycle Accident Lawyers are ready to stand by your side. Call us at 866-846-5955 for a no-obligation consultation.
