Charlotte Personal Injury Attorney Matt Arnold answers the question: “How does the law of contributory negligence play a role in my case?“
If you were hurt in an accident, you might be entitled to money for your injuries. In many cases, someone else was negligent and their negligence caused an accident or incident that resulted in serious injuries. There are many types of accidents that may occur in which someone else’s actions or inactions led to you getting hurt. Medical care can be extremely expensive and the responsible party should be held accountable for all costs associated with the accident. If you were hurt in an accident that was not your fault, you have limited time to file a claim.
