Elements of a Driver-Negligence Case
Minnesota auto accident cases often involve driver negligence, which is more involved than one would think.  The four elements of driver negligence are as follows:

  • Duty 
  • Breach of Duty
  • Direct or Proximate Cause
  • Injury

Each of the above elements has to be proven by a preponderance of the evidence.  Minnesota auto accident attorney Rich Ruohonen has had years of successful experience with Minnesota auto accident cases.  He and his team know how to gather evidence and use it effectively in court and for successful settlement negotiations.
