Begam & Marks: Legal Representation for Negligence and Malpractice Claims: Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa

The reckless and careless actions of one person can significantly injure and harm innocent victims. Though their actions may not be premeditated, people who cause auto accidents or commit medical negligence or malpractice should be held responsible for their offenses when they inflict harm on another. If the judge or jury rules in favor of the plaintiff, they can recover damages to pay for their medical bills and lost wages. Victims with potential negligence or malpractice claims should contact Begam and Marks’ Phoenix attorneys, serving Scottsdale, Mesa, Gilbert, Glendale, Peoria, Tempe, Chandler, Buckeye, Surprise, Sun City, and all other Arizona cities, for more information on the legal process.

General Negligence Claims

Personal injury law deals with a specific wrong which is based on someone’s negligence. If injury or loss of life is caused by someone else’s negligence, the law says that the injured person or the survivors of the deceased person can receive compensation. Negligence does not mean that someone intended to cause harm.  They may have simply been thoughtless or failed to act with reasonable care.  This is negligence.  Clients’ injuries can shatter their lives.  Seeing that clients receive just compensation for their injuries so they can pick up the pieces and move on is one of the most challenging tasks that every personal injury lawyer faces.  An example of simple negligence in an auto accident case would be the failure to stop at a stop sign or red light.  Any reasonable person could see that running a stop sign or red light may cause harm to other people.  However, all negligence claims are not so easy to identify and prove.  Attorneys who specialize in personal injury law are experienced in identifying negligence and proving how the negligence caused the harm. For information on negligence claims, please contact the Phoenix firm of Begam & Marks.

Liability for Criminal Acts

The person who commits a criminal act such as an assault, murder or rape, clearly would be legally responsible, but people who commit these acts seldom have insurance or assets.  Sometimes, though, there may be more than one person who contributed to causing the crime. A property owner, for example, may be liable for a person who commits criminal acts on their property because there is inadequate security. Examples of that type of case include a shopping center being found legally responsible for injuries to customers from assaults in the parking area. In another type of case involving liability for the criminal act of drunk driving, a bar owner may be liable because of serving too many drinks to a customer who becomes drunk and injures or kills someone else in a car crash.  In other situations, homeowners’ insurance may apply. For instance, if a person acting in self defense uses too much force, and seriously injures someone, that person would be covered for their negligence under their homeowner’s policy.
