How is Liability Determined?

Determining liability in catastrophic injury cases involves examining critical elements:

  • Duty of Care: The foundation of establishing liability lies in demonstrating that the responsible party owed a duty of care to the victim. This duty is a fundamental element in negligence claims.
  • Breach of Duty: Meticulous examination and presentation of evidence to show that the duty of care was breached due to negligent actions or inactions. This breach becomes a critical factor contributing to the catastrophic injury.
  • Causation: Proving causation is essential—establishing a direct link between the negligent actions of the responsible party and the catastrophic injuries suffered by the victim. This is a cornerstone in building a robust legal case.

What to Do After a Catastrophic Injury

Dealing with the aftermath of a catastrophic injury requires immediate and careful actions:

  1. Immediate Medical Attention: Prioritize your health by seeking immediate medical assistance. This is not only crucial for your well-being but also for documenting the extent of your injuries.
  2. Document the Scene: Strengthen your case by taking photographs of the accident scene. Note any hazardous conditions or contributing factors that may have led to the catastrophic injury.
  3. Preserve Evidence: Maintain meticulous records of medical bills, accident reports, and any other relevant documentation. This documentation serves as crucial evidence in building a strong legal case.
