Dealing with the aftermath of a car accident can be extremely tough. Unfortunately, tens of thousands of vehicle collisions causing serious injuries are reported annually across the state. After a car crash, victims have the option to file legal claims against those responsible. Seeking guidance from a car accident lawyer is crucial to improve your chances of proving negligence. To succeed in your negligence lawsuit, you must establish the following five elements:

• Duty of Care: You need to show that the defendant had a legal responsibility to act reasonably and prevent harm to you.
• Breach of Duty: It's essential to prove that the defendant failed to fulfill their duty of care by acting negligently or recklessly, endangering your safety.
• Causation in Fact: You must demonstrate that the defendant's negligence directly caused your injury.
• Proximate Cause: Showing that the defendant's actions were a foreseeable result of their negligence is necessary.
• Damages: You need to demonstrate that you suffered actual harm and losses due to the defendant's negligence, including medical bills, lost wages, or other damages.

To increase your chances of obtaining justice after an accident, it's vital to seek representation from a Burton car accident lawyer.
