Personal Injury and Negligence

By Allen Flatt Ballidis & Leslie on October 10, 2023

The word “negligence” comes up a lot in personal injury situations, and our experts Allen Flatt Ballidis & Leslie are here to shed some light about what this really means. Negligence is, in essence, the failure to exercise reasonable care toward others. This can include reckless driving, texting while driving, unsafe property conditions, and even inadequately tested products.

Sometimes, both parties involved in an accident may share some of the fault. California practices “comparative negligence,” which allows the injured person to still seek compensation for losses, even if partly responsible.

If you or someone you love has been injured due to negligence of others, let our personal injury experts guide you through what can often be a complicated process. Contact us today at www.allenflatt.com/contact.html or call (949) 752-7474.
