Understanding Negligence in Personal Injury Claims

While some accidents are truly blameless, many incidents occur as a result of careless, reckless, or even intentional wrongful actions. In order to pursue a personal injury claim, you must be able to show that another party acted negligently and that this negligence led to your injuries. The other party can be another person, a company, a product manufacturer, a property owner, or any other entity that has a duty of reasonable care.

There are nearly endless ways in which an accident can be caused by negligence. Some examples include:

• A distracted driver runs a red light, hitting another motorist waiting on the opposite side of the intersection.
• A defectively manufactured airbag does not inflate upon impact, resulting in the death of the automobile driver.
• The owner of a grocery store fails to put up a wet floor sign after mopping and a shopper slips, falls, and breaks her leg.
• An anesthesiologist administers anesthesia to a patient despite a note in the patient’s chart that states he is unable to receive anesthesia.
• A commercial shipping company imposes unrealistic quotas, resulting in overloaded trucks which, in turn, lead to an increase in truck accidents.
• A construction site worker falls from unsafe scaffolding on a job site and suffers permanent disabilities that prevent him from returning to work.

These are just some examples of how negligence leads to accidents.
