How Our Advocates Can Prove Negligence

When we evaluate your case, we will be looking for evidence that your serious personal injury was caused as a result of another party's unacceptable mistake.

You must prove several factors in a personal injury claim based on negligence:

  • Duty: You must prove that the person who caused your injury owed you a duty of care; the prime examples are car drivers who are responsible for following traffic laws.
  • Breach: You must prove that duty was breached.
  • Proximate Cause: You must demonstrate that the other person's actions caused the incident that injured you.
  • Causation: You must demonstrate that there is a direct link between the incident and your injuries.
  • Harm: You must prove that you suffered damages as a result.

Need a Personal Injury Attorney? We Serve All of Connecticut!

Personal injury law in Connecticut is extremely complicated. Many people who have suffered an injury mistakenly believe that they have no case because the person responsible for their injury did not act maliciously or did not intend to hurt them.

However, under Connecticut law, it is not necessary to demonstrate that the person responsible for the accident that hurt you tried to do so. Instead, you simply need to prove that this person acted (or failed to act) out of negligence.
