Negligence: Understanding Your Legal Rights

Negligence occurs when someone fails to act with reasonable care, resulting in harm to another individual. Common examples of negligence include:

  • Motor Vehicle Accidents 
  • Slip and Fall Incidents 
  • Hazardous Property Conditions 
  • Dangerous or Defective Products 
  • Medical Malpractice

To prove negligence, the injured person must show:

  • The Other Party Owed a Duty of Reasonable Care 
  • That Duty Was Breached 
  • The Breach Caused Injury or Damage

If all these elements are present, the negligent party can be held legally responsible and made to compensate you for your losses.

Intentional Torts: When Someone Intentionally Causes Harm

Personal injury law doesn’t just address negligence—it also protects individuals from intentional actions that cause harm.

Intentional torts occur when someone deliberately commits an act leading to injury. Common examples include:

  • Assault 
  • Domestic Violence 
  • Kidnapping 
  • Other Criminal Misconduct Resulting in Injury

It’s important to know that the person doesn’t have to intend the injury—only the act itself that caused harm. Many intentional tort claims arise alongside criminal charges, providing the injured party with an opportunity to recover damages even if the criminal case is ongoing.
