Car Accident: When someone is injured in a car accident due to another driver's negligence, they may be entitled to compensation for their injuries and damages. California follows a fault-based system, which means the at-fault driver's insurance is typically responsible for covering the injured party's medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, pain, and suffering. California law also follows the "comparative negligence" principle. If the injured party is found partially at fault for the accident, their compensation may be reduced proportionally to their percentage of fault. For example, if the injured person is found to be 20% at fault and the total damages are $100,000, their compensation would be reduced to $80,000.
To pursue a car accident claim in California, it is essential to establish the other driver's negligence, which includes proving that the at-fault driver owed a duty of care to others on the road, breached that duty through negligent actions (such as texting while driving, driving recklessly, running a red light, etc.), and that the breach directly caused the injuries and damages suffered by the victim.
After getting into a car accident, it is crucial for car accident victims to properly document the facts of the accident and all resulting injuries. Immediately after an accident, you must gather evidence by taking photos of both cars, the other party’s insurance information, obtain witness statements and police reports. It is essential to document all injuries by consulting with a medical professional about all of your injuries and promptly getting the necessary treatment for the injuries.
Consulting with an experienced personal injury attorney will maximize your chances of receiving fair compensation for your injuries.
