Your Justice Is Our Priority
To get compensation for a car accident or other injury case you typically (with some exceptions) need to show that the other person or company was negligent.
In law, negligence consists of four elements: 1) the defendant owed a duty, 2) the defendant breached his duty, 3) causation, and 4) damages. While this may sound easy enough, there are endless laws, nuances, and cases governing the law relating to negligence.
