Negligence Claims

Negligence is the failure to exercise care toward others that a reasonable or prudent person would under the circumstance, or taking action that a reasonable person would not. It could be said that if not for the negligence, the loss or damage would not have occurred. Negligence can lead to an accident, crime (such as reckless driving), or business errors or miscalculations and can result in many types of accidents causing physical, property, or monetary damages.

Examples of Negligence

Negligence can occur in many ways. For example, a pharmacist may accidentally prescribe the wrong medication. A business owner’s failure to warn customers about wet, recently mopped floors which causes someone to slip and fall would be considered negligence. The fall could have been easily prevented if notification signs had been posted. Another example is the failure of an employer to protect its employees from on the job harm by not providing required training, safety equipment, or information about hazardous materials. It is considered negligence when a person drives a car in the wrong lane of the freeway, injuring another person. A distributor who delivers a product he knows contains a manufacturing defect which could cause harm even if used as directed may be guilty of negligence.
