What Is Negligence?
The legal definition of negligence is the failure to exercise a reasonable standard of care toward another individual, or acting in a way that would be inconsistent with the actions of a reasonable person. Assault, sexual abuse, trespassing, and vandalism are not examples of negligence. These actions constitute “intentional torts” or crimes. In some cases, negligent actions can also constitute criminal behavior; for example, driving recklessly.
Do I Have A Case?
In order to prove that you are entitled to damages based on another individual’s negligent behavior, you must be able to demonstrate that:
➢ The allegedly negligent party had a duty of care toward the injured party
➢ The defendant acted or failed to act in a way that was negligent
➢ The damages sustained by the plaintiff were directly caused by the negligence
