Your Montgomery County, IL, Injury Claims Lawyers

There are countless ways you can be injured. commuting to work, riding a rollercoaster, being prescribed the wrong medication, falling down the steps of a bus, and any number of other situations that may cause you harm. The key to winning a personal injury case is proving negligence. There’s a few ways to go about this. Below, we list the basic elements of proving negligence:

  1. Reasonable Duty of Care: We as a society have a moral “duty of care” in everyday interactions. Proving that there is a duty of care is the first step in proving negligence after an accident. For example, it’s a business owner’s “duty” to protect his or her customers from harm, like fixing faulty wiring or a loose handrail.
  2. Breach: Another step for proving negligence is showing how a person or entity “breached” their duty of care. A good example is a driver speeds through a stop sign and hits another car. The driver knew they were supposed to stop, but breached their duty of care by not stopping.
  3. Causation: Put simply, causation is what caused the breach, like a driver knowing they’re going too fast. This is the negligent act that breaches the duty of care.
  4. Damages: Lastly, there must be financial damages. Financial harm might include lost wages, medical bills, and other expenses we will discuss later.
