Personal injury from an Ohio car crash; Case Standards Part 1 | Bowling Green, Ohio accident attorneys

Not everyone who has been injured can win a personal injury case. The person who causes the injury has to be deemed negligent, or at fault, under the law. Someone is at fault when it is his responsibility to act or behave in a certain way, but fails to and causes some type of damage or injury. There's a lot of complexity built into that seemingly simple concept, but that's the rough idea.

A routine traffic accident is a good example. Motorists have a responsibility to drive in a way that doesn't hurt others.  When a driver speeds, fails to yield, or rear-ends another driver and causes an injury, then that driver is negligent.

Filing a negligence claim doesn't mean that you're accusing the other driver of being a bad person, and it doesn't mean you're being greedy. It's simply a claim that the other person's conduct has caused you some type of harm for which you deserve to be compensated. No one is going to go to jail as a result of your civil lawsuit. The civil system offers a way for you to be made whole for the damages you've suffered as the result of another's wrongful conduct.
