Matheny Motorcycle Accident Lawyers

1. Duty of Care

The defendant owed a duty to the plaintiff to exercise reasonable care.

This might involve:

– 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 behaving (or neglecting necessary actions) in a way that any reasonable individual would not under similar circumstances.

Common breaches involve:

– Running a red light or speeding.

– Failing to repair unsafe conditions.

3. Causation

The plaintiff must prove that the defendant’s breach of duty was the reason for their injury. This involves two types of causation:

Actual Cause: The defendant’s actions were the immediate 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 incurred actual harm or losses due to the defendant’s actions.

This can include:

– Physical injuries.

– Emotional distress.

– Financial losses such as medical bills or lost wages.

Proving all four elements is critical to winning a case. Don’t navigate this process alone. Our Matheny Motorcycle Accident Lawyers are here to advocate for you. Call us at 866-846-5955 for a no-obligation consultation.
