After sustaining a severe injury, you may wonder what the future holds. If another party’s negligence caused your injuries, you might be entitled to seek compensation for your losses through a personal injury claim.
At Snyder and Wenner P.C., we have extensive experience handling personal injury claims, including car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, brain injuries, burn injuries, and more. We understand the challenges that you are facing and will work tirelessly to help you secure the total and fair compensation that you deserve. The cases we handle are all due to negligence, and we are committed to protecting our clients with honor, responsibility, and empathy.
Here are the 3 elements of negligence we review when briefing a case involving medical negligence or malpractice.
- Negligence– Did the defendant act inappropriately? If he or she did not act reasonably and prudently, then the defendant was negligent.
- Cause – Is there a link between negligence and the injuries? To file a lawsuit, there must be a causal link. How specific or firm is the link between negligence and injury? Our team takes all angles to investigate the proximate cause of the damage to compensate victims.
- Damages – By reviewing medical records, charts, and expenses, we can prove you suffered injuries, loss, or other expenses because of someone else’s negligence.
What are the types of negligence claims?
Negligence occurs when someone fails to act with a reasonable level of care and someone is injured. There are many types of negligence claims, but they require the plaintiff to prove the same three elements: negligence, causation, and damages. Some of the most common cases of negligence include:
- Truck accidents and commercial vehicles
- Car and SUV accidents
- Medical malpractice
- Defective products
- Construction accidents
- Birth injury
- Negligent Security
- Elder abuse or neglect
Each of these categories can result in brain injury, amputation, other injuries, or even death.
