Whether you were injured at work or on the roadways, if you have suffered injuries or damages due to negligence, you may be entitled to seek compensation through a personal injury lawsuit. Negligence is the failure of an individual to use reasonable care in order to avoid causing harm or injury to another person or to another person’s property. It can be the cause of dangerous situations that lead to catastrophic and even deadly injuries.
I may be able to assist you, if you would like to file a personal injury lawsuit related to any of the following:
- Car accidents
- Accidents with tractor trailers or any other commercial vehicles
- Construction site injuries
- Medical malpractice and misconduct
- Recreational vehicle accidents (ATV’s, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, etc.)
- Dangerous Premises
- Reckless behaviors
- Dog bites
- Fires and burns
Negligence is a legal concept that must be proven in a personal injury lawsuit, and it is defined as:
“The failure to use reasonable care to avoid harm to another person or [the failure] to do that which a reasonable person might do in similar circumstances.”
If the injuries that you’ve sustained were due to the intentional actions of another to deliberately inflict or cause harm, you would have a personal injury lawsuit based upon
gross negligence, which is:
“The intentional failure to perform a manifest duty in reckless disregard of the consequences as affecting the life or property of another.”
The determination of negligence, whether it was unintentional or deliberate, is made by considering the following four factors:
- A duty of care was owed to you by the negligent party in question
- The negligent party in question abandoned, overlooked or deliberately breached the duty of care
- You sustained injuries
- The injuries that you sustained were a direct result of the abandonment, overlooking or deliberate breach of the duty of care by the negligent party in question
Unlike general – or unintentional – negligence, gross negligence is committed with some level of intent on the part of the negligent party. When establishing intent, the courts consider: 1.) the state of mind of the negligent party at the time the negligent act was performed; 2.) the intention(s) of the defendant when the negligence was enacted; and 3.) the consequences or substantially
certain consequences that resulted from the actions/non-actions or behavior(s) of the defendant.
