Elements of a Successful Car Accident Case
Through the many auto accident cases, we have handled over the past 30+ years, we have determined the several main elements that need to be addressed to successfully pursue a car accident lawsuit. These facts both demonstrate how a driver was acting recklessly and determine how much the injured is rightfully owed in order to fully recover from the incident.
- Duty: Duty means showing that the defendant owed you an obligation to take a certain level of care. It is widely accepted that drivers must operate their vehicles with at least as much caution as a reasonable person would use in a similar situation.
- Breach: Examples of breaching this standard include texting or other forms of distracted driving, speeding, drunk driving, or failing to yield the right of way.
- Causation: The plaintiff also must prove that the accident was a reasonably foreseeable result of the defendant’s careless actions. It must not have been something that resulted from the carelessness of another party or something that would have been likely to happen even if the defendant had complied with all applicable traffic laws and otherwise exercised the appropriate care.
- Damages: Damages available in personal injury claims arising from car accidents may span a broad range of items. Some typical examples include lost income, the costs of past and future medical treatment, pain and suffering, and lost enjoyment of life.
An experienced Coral Springs auto accident lawyer can do the necessary legwork to demonstrate these key factors after a car or truck wreck. Your primary focus should be on recovering, resting easy once the case is in capable hands.
