In most personal injury cases, including car accidents, the plaintiff must establish that the defendant was negligent. Negligence is the failure to exercise reasonable care, resulting in harm to another person.
To have a successful car accident case, we must prove four elements were at play in your car crash:
Duty: The defendant owed you a duty of care (e.g., to follow traffic laws and drive safely).
Breach: The defendant breached that duty (e.g., by running a red light or driving while intoxicated).
