How Does a Decatur Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer Prove Liability?
The liable party, their insurer, and/or their attorneys may give you a lot of trouble if you handle your case yourself. Insurance companies are often concerned with saving their company money and may try to undervalue your case. You don’t need to accept lowball settlement offers when you have Bader Scott Injury Lawyers on your team.
We can prove liability by establishing negligence. We must satisfy the following four elements to prove negligence:
- Duty of care: The liable party had a duty to keep you safe.
- Breach of duty: The liable party did not maintain their duty of care. They acted with negligence.
- Causation: The liable party’s negligence was the cause of the accident that led to your TBI.
- Damages: You suffered damages because of the liable party’s negligence.
