Do I have a Negligence case?
A person is negligent under the law if they have breached the duty of care owed to the injured person. There are various degrees of negligence given the specific facts and duties owed. For instance, a person who causes a car wreck while under the influence may be considered grossly negligent which could result in punitive damages. Contrary to what some insurance companies would like people to believe, accidents don't just happen without someone neglecting to do what a reasonable person under the same circumstances would do. Whether you have this type of case depends on many individual factors particular to your situation and requires a legal opinion. Don't substitute guessing for a qualified legal opinion. Call Julie A.
