Negligence
In legal terms, negligence is a tort. They are civil wrongs that are in a different category than criminal crimes. Negligence cases involve the defendant's inability to exercise a reasonable level of care and caution in their actions or inactions. Such a failure leads to injuries or harm that is not intended to another person. Negligence is a leading cause of injuries and accidents. This includes car accidents as well as slip and fall accidents at restaurants, in businesses or private homes, as well as medical malpractice (when doctors fail to adhere to the guidelines of care).
A lawsuit for negligence involves four essential elements that include breach of duty, causation, and damages. The defendant must first be liable to the plaintiff for a duty of care. It could be a responsibilities to perform a task or to refrain from doing something under certain conditions. In the case of a car wreck for instance all drivers are required to drive safely and follow traffic laws. The defendant must then breach this duty by committing a negligent or reckless act in some way. This could be the result of texting while driving, speeding, or not wearing the seatbelt. It is important to note that this act will directly cause the victim's injuries. A defendant is not accountable for a recurrence that was caused by another cause, such as the victim's stress or anxiety, or even a natural disaster beyond their control.
Once the court has decided that the defendant was bound by a duty to the plaintiff then the next step would be to prove that he failed to fulfill the duty by failing to act or acted in a manner that was contrary to the obligation. It could be an act or omission. The court must determine that the breach directly contributed to the victim's loss or injury. This can be proven through a clear causal connection or a direct connection between the breach of duty and a direct, proximate cause of the injury or loss like the above examples.
In the past, American courts used to adhere to a doctrine known as contributory negligence. This meant that a person could not be compensated if they were even partially responsible for their own injuries. However, the majority of states use a model known as pure comparative fault, or comparative negligence, which allows victims to obtain reduced amounts of compensation depending on their degree of responsibility for the accident.
Damages
