What is Negligence?

Defining Negligent Behavior

There are many accidents that could befall you in life. Sometimes events beyond anyone’s control like an earthquake or flood can cause you harm. However, there are instances where you experience personal injuries due to another person or company’s negligent behavior. Negligent behavior occurs when a person or company engages in careless activities, or fails to properly follow standard safety protocol, resulting in injuries to another person. If you have been harmed by another’s negligent behavior, contact a Houston personal injury attorney at The Doan Law Firm, P.C. to learn how to proceed with legal action against them. We are passionate about helping those who have been harmed by the careless actions of others and will work tirelessly on your behalf.

Negligent Actions Leading to Injuries

There are multiple instances when a person or a company can exhibit negligent behavior. A drunk driver can crash into you, a construction worker can drop a heavy object on you, a company can put the wrong dosage into medicine, a doctor can mess up during surgery and other such acts. Getting injured due to negligent behavior is extremely serious. You can face thousands of dollars in medical bills and have to undergo extensive physical therapy, as well as pay for medication and in some cases, even take a leave of absence from work.

Don’t stand by and do nothing while you suffer because of a company’s failure to follow safety procedures, or a person acting recklessly. Lawyers from The Doan Law Firm, P.C. are available to work directly with you in order to help you bring legal action against those who harmed you.
