As outlined by AllLaw in the article “Car Accident Injury Claim Basics”, determining who is at fault in a car accident is central to understanding your legal and financial options. While liability laws vary by state, the general principle holds that the at-fault party—or more accurately, their insurance provider—is responsible for covering damages such as medical bills, vehicle repairs, and lost wages.
In most states, car accident liability hinges on negligence. To win a personal injury claim, the injured party must show that the other driver breached a legal duty of care, and that breach directly caused measurable harm. Simple as it sounds, proving this often requires detailed evidence such as police reports, traffic citations, and witness statements.
