The defendant’s role is to respond to the claim and protect their own legal interests. For example, the other driver — or their insurance company — may deny responsibility or challenge the amount of damages. Their attorney presents evidence to defend against the claim.
The Defendant’s Role
The plaintiff’s goal is to prove that the defendant’s negligence caused their injury. For example, in a car accident case, the injured driver becomes the plaintiff. They work with our law firm to collect evidence, follow medical treatment, and build their case for compensation.
