Who Can Be Held Responsible for Prom Night Car Accidents?
Responsibility for prom night car accidents can fall on various parties, depending on how the accident happened and what caused it in the first place. The driver of the vehicle is often the primary focus when investigating the cause of the accident and trying to establish liability.
This is especially true if negligence, such as drunk driving or distracted driving, is involved.
In cases where alcohol is a factor, adults or establishments that provided alcohol to underage individuals could also be held liable. Additionally, if a vehicle defect played a role, say, a faulty brake, the manufacturer might be responsible.
Lastly, in cases involving chauffeured vehicles, like limousines, the limo company or driver could be held accountable. The bottom line is that liability may fall on different parties depending on the specific circumstances, which is why it's advisable to have your case reviewed by an expert.
What Damages Can I Recover After Such an Accident?
Damages available to prom night accident victims depend on the specifics of the case. These can include medical expenses for any injuries sustained, costs for psychological counseling, compensation for pain and suffering, and lost earning potential, especially if the accident caused catastrophic injuries.
What If Someone Died In the Accident?
In the case of fatal accidents, families may seek damages for wrongful death. This covers funeral expenses, loss of companionship, the deceased's estimated future income, and sometimes punitive damages.
What Other Accidents Can Happen on Prom Night Besides Car Accidents?
Such an eventful night can also present risks beyond car accidents. These include slip and fall incidents due to spills or poor lighting, alcohol-related emergencies such as alcohol poisoning, and the risk of drowning if the event is held near water. There's also the possibility of food poisoning, physical altercations among students, incidents of sexual assault, and property damage. In all these cases, there's always a possibility that someone somewhere was negligent or reckless, something our attorneys can help figure out.
