Description:
Boca Raton, Florida personal injury lawyers Paul M. Silva and Peter Joseph Somera, Jr. represented the Plaintiff who sued on an auto negligence theory.

Florida operates under a legal doctrine of “pure comparative negligence.” Under this doctrine, a driver's percentage of fault will determine the amount of compensation they are entitled to. Fortunately, even if you played a role in your accident, you could still recover damages.
The following five elements may typically be required to prove negligence: The existence of a legal duty that theendant owed the plaintiff, Defendant’s breach of that duty, Harm to the plaintiff, Defendant’s actions are the proximate cause of harm to the plaintiff, and Defendant’s actions are the cause-in-fact of harm to the plaintiff.
