Personal injury

If you were injured because of another person’s negligence, you may have a personal injury claim against that party. Negligence is a legal standard that means the party responsible for your injury failed to behave as a reasonably prudent person would under the same circumstances. There are four specific elements that the plaintiff must establish to show that the defendant was negligent:

The defendant owed the plaintiff a reasonable duty of care. This means the defendant owed an obligation to the plaintiff recognized by law. For example, a doctor owes a duty of care to treat his or her patient according to the standards of the medical profession. This duty is often defined by the relationship that exists between the plaintiff and defendant.

The defendant breached the duty of care. A breach refers to a failure to uphold the duty of care by some act or omission. That failure is typically the result of negligence, but it could also be because of recklessness or intentional wrongdoing. The question of breach is almost always the most contested element of a personal injury lawsuit.

The breach caused injury to the plaintiff. This element requires the plaintiff to show that the breach actually caused injury to the plaintiff. If the defendant was negligent but did not cause harm to the plaintiff, this element fails.

Because of the breach and injury, the plaintiff suffered damages. These include costs such as medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. The damages are part of the compensation that you will demand the defendant pay in a lawsuit.

Auto Accident

Auto accident law is a subset of personal injury law that deals with legal claims that arise when personal injuries or property damages arise from a traffic collision. Establishing negligence is vital in a car accident lawsuit since it usually determines who is at fault. Once it is established who is responsible for the damages, the injured party may seek compensation for medical expenses, property damage, pain and suffering, lost wages, or even earning capacity. The Law Offices of Demeksa Oli can help you to get the compensation you deserve. You don’t pay unless we win your case.

It is also important to remember that, while your own insurance company may claim to be on your side, their primary goal is to pay as little as possible. Thus, their interests may not be the same as yours, particularly if you are making an uninsured motorist or property damage claim. It never hurts to have a lawyer to look out for your interests.
