How to Prove Negligence in a Lodi Car Accident Claim?

In order to prove negligence in a car accident, you must first demonstrate that the liable driver had an obligation to exercise a legal duty of care while driving to avoid harming others on the road. A highly qualified Lodi car accident lawyer can help you with the following to prove negligence in a car accident claim:

  • Gather evidence: Evidence such as pictures of vehicle damage, skid marks or debris on the road, eyewitness statements, and police reports can strengthen your claim.
  • Determine the cause of the accident: Analyze the evidence to determine the cause of the vehicle accident and all liable parties. For example, texting while driving, driving while intoxicated, or speeding may all demonstrate the cause of the accident.
  • Establish a legal duty of care: Show that the liable party owed a legal duty of care while driving. Reasonable care is required by law, so drivers must follow all traffic laws and avoid behavior that may cause accidents.
  • Prove the liable party breached a legal duty of care: Demonstrate that the liable party breached their legal duty of care by acting negligently. Proof may include showing they were distracted while driving, failed a field sobriety test, or violated a traffic law.
  • Demonstrate that the breach of legal duty caused the accident: You may prove that the liable driver’s breach directly caused the accident and injuries by demonstrating that the accident may not have occurred if a reasonable driver would have acted differently in a similar situation.
  • Demonstrate accident damages: Finally, you must show that you suffered damages from the accident.

If you sustained injuries due to someone else’s negligence, you have a legal right to pursue compensation for your losses.
