How Fault Is Determined for Hawthorne Accidents
California negligence laws will determine whether another party’s legal wrongdoing caused your injuries. Typically, it is the case that a victim’s injuries were caused by a responsible party. Stanford Law research has shown it is reasonable to estimate more than 90% of accidents are partially caused by human error, if not entirely.
In addition to individual drivers who were negligent or reckless, auto manufacturers and parts manufacturers could also be liable if a defective vehicle or vehicle part caused your accident and injuries. Similarly, city governments or organizations may be liable if broken streets or traffic signs somehow contributed to the accident in a negligent way.
The complex nature of investigating liability highlights why you need to discuss your case with a Ledger Law attorney before signing a settlement offer. We will make sure the true value of your claim is discovered after a full and thorough investigation of the accident.
