There are certain elements that enable an injury victim to pursue financial recovery through the civil court system. These elements must be present in your accident to constitute grounds for a lawsuit. Someone else’s negligence, recklessness, intent to harm, or unlawful act must have caused or contributed to your injuries. The majority of personal injury cases center on the legal doctrine of negligence.
