Proving Fault and Liability for Your Child’s Injury Claim in Boulder, CO
Negligence-based claims are the most common type of child injury cases. Negligence is the failure to use reasonable care given the circumstances. As the victim, your child must prove the elements of negligence to receive compensation for damages.
To prove negligence for a child injury claim, you must show that the party you are suing:
- Owed a legal duty of care to your child
- Breached the duty of care to your child through their actions or failure to act
- Directly and proximately caused your child’s injuries because of their breach of duty
- Caused your child to suffer damages because of their breach of duty
Some child injury cases could be based on other legal claims such as strict liability, intentional torts, negligence per se, and vicarious liability. Our Boulder child injury attorneys thoroughly analyze the evidence and facts in your child’s case to determine the correct cause of action for your child’s personal injury claim.
