Your Rights after a Lawrenceville, Georgia Auto Accident
Because Lawrenceville is located in Georgia, Georgia's fault laws apply in the event of an auto accident. Under these laws, a driver at fault for causing a car crash is responsible for the injuries that result. It is, however, the burden of the injured victim to show that the driver was responsible for the crash.
The victim of a Lawrenceville, Georgia auto accident must show:
- That the other driver owed a duty of care. All drivers have a duty to obey driving rules and to behave in a reasonably prudent manner.
- That the duty was breached. This involves showing that the other driver broke a driver safety rule or was otherwise unreasonably careless.
- That the breach was a direct cause of the resulting accident. When a driver breaches a duty, he is said to be negligent. He is legally liable for damages if his negligence causes a crash.
- That damages occurred from the accident. With the help of a Lawrenceville, Georgia auto accident attorney, you can prove that you suffered injury and deserve compensation.
Many different types of evidence can be used to prove your claim. The sooner you contact a Lawrenceville, Georgia Car Accident Attorney, the sooner you can work on gathering the proof you need to hold the other driver accountable for your crash.
