Firstly, it's essential to establish that another party's negligence or wrongful actions caused your injuries. This could include scenarios such as car accidents caused by a driver's recklessness or slip and fall incidents due to hazardous conditions on someone else's property. Secondly, you must demonstrate that you have suffered measurable damages as a result of the injury, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
