- Personal Injury
Being involved in a severe accident can be incredibly frustrating. Your injuries may cause you to need to take time off of work or away from your family as you recover. It can be all the more frustrating to learn that your injuries could have been prevented. The team at Crain Brogdon LLP in Dallas, TX, is here today to explain how we can help you receive compensation if you have been harmed due to someone else’s negligence.
Understanding What Negligence Means
Typically, negligence is considered to be the failure to take proper care in doing something. In a legal sense, negligence is a factor in a variety of situations including personal injury, defective products, car accidents, and more. Generally speaking, if you are harmed due to another person’s actions or lack of care, this may be defined as negligence and that person may be held liable for your injuries. As an example, if a distracted driver hits your car, and it is proven to the judge and/or jury that the distraction is what caused the accident, the driver can be held responsible for not paying attention while on the road.
Being Injured On Someone’s Property
If you are a customer or invited guest on someone’s property, the property owner typically has a legal obligation to ensure the property is safe. Ignoring unsafe conditions, such as a wet floor, broken guardrails, or a dangerous dog, could lead the invitee or licensee to be physically or emotionally harmed. Our team of experienced attorneys may be able to help you receive compensation if the property owner failed to maintain a safe space.
If you have been harmed as a guest at a business or someone’s home, it’s important that you know how to handle the situation. First, you should always seek medical attention for your injuries. Your injuries can range from minor to severe, depending on your situation, and it is always important to seek medical care so that the case can be properly documented and you are properly cared for. After seeking medical care, report the incident to the necessary people. For instance, if you slipped and fell on a wet floor at a restaurant, the incident should be reported to the manager. After this, contact our team of attorneys for a free consultation to learn more about your next steps.
The Impact Of Defective Products
When you purchase any type of product, you should have a reasonable expectation that the product is safe and properly advertised. If it does not work as intended or does not have proper label warnings on it, this could put you at risk of harm. For instance, if you were prescribed a new medication and it did not properly warn you against the side effects you experience, this can be emotionally distressing and dangerous to your health. To learn more about your options after using a defective product, call our team for a consultation to learn more about product liability compensation.
