    serious accident thats really sad to hear about
    the tough times that you are facing simply
    because of some other persons negligence.
  • After you have been involved in an accident, it
    becomes way too important to know the steps that
    you need to take soon after an accident, usually
    dealing with an injury case isnt that easy, you
    have to go through a lot of documentation,
    paperwork, procedures.

    consideration to your topic because if you fail
    to focus on legal boundaries, you wont have any
    point in fighting for your case on irrelevant
    leads.

    treated on time, as, even a simple case can turn
    out to be troublesome with a silly mistake so

How to Prove Negligence?
  • The defendant owned a duty and this duty was
    towards the people on road, other drivers as well
    as the general public
  • Later it was realized that the defendant did not
    accomplish the duty assigned, as in simply
    violated the duty
  • And it was also noticed that the violation of the
    duty caused severe problems like the plaintiff
    was injured and also had some additional damages.
  • This is basically an example of the negligence
    shown by the defendant towards the plaintiff, so
    if in any way you believe that you can relate
    these points with your case, you can simply have
    the ability to file a lawsuit that states the
    accident was due to the negligence and of course
    you will be compensated for the same.

What Are The Type Of Negligence That You Can
File A Lawsuit For?
6
Contributory Negligence
  • Here it means that the law is equal to all,
    justice is given to all and no one is left
    without it. In this type of negligence, if the
    plaintiff is found to be a reason for the
    injuries or accident, then they should be
    compensated by deducting the amount of negligence
    shown by them. You will be compensated for the
    money, but definitely, the percentage of
    negligence you have shown will be eliminated.
  • For example, if the defendant is 95 responsible
    for the accident and you are 5 , still you will
    be answerable you have to lose the 5 amount
    here no matter what. But definitely, you have to
    check if this law is eligible in your area
    because different states have different rules and
    regulations

7
Comparative Negligence
  • The title itself states that comparative
    negligence is when the party, the defendant, as
    well as the plaintiff, are 50 responsible for
    the accident the injuries as well. Here the
    plaintiff, as well as the defendant, shares
    liability for the case. So depending upon this,
    the compensation amount is calculated. Well, this
    is a really great law as it does not give any
    kind of burden completely to a single party.
  • It gives responsibility to both of them. Here
    there are chances where the defendant will try
    ways and means to lower their fault and try to
    blame everything or more than 50 on you, this is
    the reason, this can be tricky as well so you do
    need a Newton personal injury attorney.

8
Vicarious Negligence
  • These are very complicated cases, as in this any
    individual me be vicariously liable for the
    accident. Well, this can happen in most of the
    cases, it becomes quite tough to find out who was
    responsible for the accident indirectly.
  • For example if there is a severe accident and the
    driver was from some company as well as the car
    doesnt belong to the driver its a service
    providing car, the manufacturer or the company
    failed to emphasize in the working condition of
    the car and simply, for this reason, you can
    consider them as vicarious negligence.
  • Also, there are cases of a dog bite where the
    owner or the dog caretaker is liable for the
    injury. Thus, it is up to you or your Newton
    personal injury attorney to identify the fault
    here.

Reckless Negligence
  • This type of negligence is considered to be the
    most problematic one here the defendant did not
    show any kind of safety, care or concern towards
    the other person. Here, you have to find out that
    the defendant did not show any kind of mercy to
    the plaintiff and even knowing what the
    consequences are, they didnt try to safer the
    situation well.
  • So for this kind of negligence, the plaintiff is
    definitely going to gain a good amount of
    compensation, here as the matter is very serious
    as well as reckless behavior was shown, the
    plaintiff can definitely seek the high amount of
    compensation simply because of the severe
    negligence is shown.
