can reduce or eliminate the defendant's liability.

✔✔ The reasonable person standard helps determine whether a defendant's actions were

negligent by comparing them to how a typical person would act in similar circumstances.

✔✔ If a plaintiff voluntarily and knowingly assumes the risks of an activity, it may limit or bar

their ability to recover damages for injuries sustained.

✔✔ Evidence might include testimony about the emotional distress experienced, medical

records, and proof that the distress was caused by the defendant’s negligent actions.

liability for the responsible party.

would in similar circumstances.




What does breach of duty refer to?


✔✔ Breach of duty occurs when an individual fails to meet the standard of care required, leading

to potential liability for any resulting harm.
