The Negligence Element of a Tort
While the expression, “accidents happen”, may be widely known and accepted as a truism, the reality is that in most instances the negligent or reckless actions of an individual or entity are to blame. If an injury occurs due to this negligence, the party at fault may be held financially responsible for their carelessness through a civil lawsuit. A successful legal action might obtain compensation for medical bills, lost wages, property damage, or other relevant concerns as appropriate.
If you or your loved one has experienced an injury due to the negligence of another party, it is recommended that you consult with a skilled and experienced personal injury lawyer so that you can be properly advised of your rights. Contact the Waco personal injury attorneys at the Law Offices of Vic Feazell, P.C., at 877-948-4842 for the passionately committed representation that you need and deserve.
The Four Components of a Tort
The party that is responsible for a tort, or a tortfeasor, will be the defendant in a personal injury lawsuit. In order to hold them financially responsible, the following must be adequately demonstrated:
- Presence of Duty
- Breach of Duty “per se negligence”
- Injury
- Breach of Duty and Injury
Whether the negligence occurs in the workplace, a roadway, place of business, or private residence, there may be legal action available to its victims.
