How can you prove my case if I’ve been injured?
If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may be wondering how your case will be proven in court. At Bache & Lynch, we focus on three main elements to establish a strong personal injury case: liability, damages, and causation. Understanding these elements is key to ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve.
Proving Liability: Who Is at Fault?
The first step in any personal injury case is determining who is at fault, or who bears liability for the accident. In some cases, liability is clear-cut. For example, if you were rear-ended in a car accident, it’s typically straightforward to establish that the other driver was at fault. However, not all cases are this simple. When liability is in question, we invest significant time and resources into a thorough investigation to uncover the facts. This may include gathering evidence from the scene, interviewing witnesses, and consulting with experts.
Proving Damages: What Are Your Losses?
Once liability is established, the next step is proving damages. Damages include both economic and non-economic losses you’ve suffered due to the injury. Economic damages are tangible and quantifiable, such as medical bills and lost wages. Non-economic damages, like pain and suffering, are more subjective but equally important. At Bache & Lynch, we meticulously document all aspects of your damages to present a compelling case for compensation.
Linking Liability and Damages: Proving Causation
Finally, we must prove causation, which is the link between the defendant’s actions and the damages you’ve suffered. In other words, we need to show that the accident caused your injuries and the resulting financial and emotional losses. This can be a complex process, requiring medical records, expert testimony, and other evidence to demonstrate that your injuries were directly caused by the incident in question.
