Willows Rideshare Sexual Assault Lawyers

In an injury claim, the concept of negligence forms the basis. To succeed in a negligence claim, the injured party (plaintiff) must prove the following four elements:

1. Duty of Care

The defendant owed a legal responsibility to the plaintiff to exercise reasonable care.

For instance:

– Drivers following traffic laws and driving responsibly.

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

2. Breach of Duty

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

Examples include:

– Running a red light or speeding.

– Failing to repair unsafe conditions.

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 (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 real harm or losses due to the defendant’s actions.

This can include:

– Pain and suffering.

– Psychological trauma.

– Monetary damages such as medical bills or lost wages.
