Proving Liability in a Car Accident Claim
Determining what caused a car accident is an important part of proving the liability, legal responsibility, of the other party in a claim or lawsuit. This can be a complex process in some cases. Car accidents may have various different causes, and in some cases a single accident may have been caused by a number of contributing factors. This is one of the reasons it is important to consider retaining legal counsel if you are involved in a serious collision. Although you may know that you were not responsible for the accident, you may have trouble proving that the other driver caused the collision. An attorney will have the resources to properly investigate the matter and build a compelling case on your behalf.
At the Law Office of Jason T. Corsover, we represent clients throughout Broward County who have been injured in car accidents. We have the financial resources and connections to professionals in accident reconstruction, medicine, private investigation and various other fields to help us investigate your accident and build evidence that proves how the other driver caused the accident.
Most traffic collisions are caused by some form of driver negligence. Speeding, drunk driving and driving while distracted are the leading types of negligence related to auto accidents. To prove liability when another driver is responsible, we may reconstruct the scene of the accident, look at physical evidence, and utilize the testimony of any witnesses who saw the collision. The approach will vary depending on the particular accident. For example, a less common cause of traffic accidents is auto product liability. A defective auto part may cause a driver to lose control and cause a collision. With a thorough investigation, less common causes of car accidents will become apparent and the proper party can be held accountable.
