How Your Injury Team Can Prove Negligence
To recover damages, either through a claim or lawsuit, we must prove how another party’s negligence led to your injuries. This requires investigating your case and analyzing the evidence we find. Then, we must assert these factors:
- Duty of care. Everyone has a duty of care to act reasonably. For instance, bus drivers have a duty of care to operate their vehicles with caution.
- Breach of duty. Next, we must show how the bus driver failed to uphold their duty of care. Speeding, disregarding traffic signals, and tailgating all constitute a breach of duty.
- Causation. Your lawyer will demonstrate that because the bus driver failed to drive safely, they caused your accident and injuries.
- Damages. Finally, we must show that you have damages arising from the bus accident. These can include medical bills, lost income, and other injury-related expenses.
What Else Can a Savannah Bus Accident Lawyer Do for Me?
Aside from asserting the other party’s negligence, your lawyer can:
- File your insurance claim. Your lawyer may attempt negotiations with the liable insurance company. If the insurer makes a settlement offer that seems fair, you and your lawyer can discuss whether to accept it.
- Initiate a lawsuit. If the insurer doesn’t make a fair final offer, your lawyer can sue the at-fault party directly. To do this, your lawyer will prepare a lawsuit, file it through the proper channels, take it to court, and assert your right to damages.
Successful claims and lawsuits have one thing in common: evidence. Your lawyer needs supporting information to recover the damages you need. Evidence in your case may include the bus’s black box data, eyewitness testimony, and traffic camera footage.
