Connecticut Car Accident Case: Proximate Cause
Understanding Proximate Cause in Connecticut Car Accident Cases A car accident can take a serious toll on your physical health, emotional well-being, and finances. If you’ve been injured, it’s essential to understand your legal rights—starting with the concept of proximate cause. Under Connecticut law, proximate cause means that another party’s negligence was a substantial factor in bringing about your injury. According to state jury instructions, if the at-fault driver’s actions played a significant role in the accident, they can be held legally responsible for the resulting harm.
