Proving Who is At Fault in Your Car Accident Lawsuit
Before You Call a Car Accident Lawyer
Proving who is at fault in a car accident is not about finding a convenient person to blame. Insurance companies will look closely at the law enforcement department's record on your accident and the circumstance involved in it. In the state of North Carolina, it is even more imperative to determine the negligent party in an accident because of the reality of contributory negligence.
Contributory Negligence and NC Personal Injury Claims
In North Carolina, responsibility rests with the last negligent act or omission producing the injury, no matter how small a contribution to the total result. This doctrine holds that individuals have an obligation to refrain from acts that can cause injury to others. They must also avoid exposing themselves to harm. North Carolina's contributory negligence laws can bar a victim's recovery for injuries sustained in a car accident. If one of the causes of your car accident or personal injury was your own negligence or inattentiveness, you may not be able to recover damages in North Carolina. A car accident lawyer can help you understand and deal with the at-fault party responsible for your claim. Call us today at 1-800-220-7321 or contact us now.
