How can I prove negligence?

Negligence is the basis of most personal injury lawsuits. In order to win your lawsuit you must prove that the defending party acted in a negligent manner which subsequently resulted in injury. To prove negligence, you must prove four things: that the defendant owed the injured party duty of care; that the defendant breached the duty; that the breach of duty caused injury; and that the injured party suffered damages as a result. Damages can be physical, mental, emotional or monetary due to job loss.

An experienced personal injury lawyer can help you better understand the process of proving negligence and filing a personal injury lawsuit. For more information, contact the Iowa personal injury lawyers of LaMarca & Landry, P.C. by calling 877-327-2600 today.
