Palm Springs Negligence Attorney
Don’t Pay the Consequences of Someone’s Careless Act
Negligence is the failure to use reasonable care. Injuries are most often caused by someone’s failure to act, or from someone acting carelessly. You should not have to bear the burden of someone else’s negligence, which is why many personal injury lawsuits boil down to the plaintiff trying to prove the negligence of the defendant.
Demonstrating this in a legal setting requires investigation, evidence, and testimony backing up your claim. Trying to do this yourself while also recovering from an injury is a stressful and difficult task. Thankfully, you can reach out to a capable Palm Springs negligence attorney at Barry Regar APLC. We can do the legwork for you and let you focus on healing while we craft a legal strategy.
To discuss your case at no charge, call (760) 440-5643 and schedule a FREE consultation with our Palm Springs negligence lawyer.
Types of Negligence
Gross Negligence
Negligence that is identified by a person's conduct or lack of conduct that presents an extremely high and unreasonable risk of harm to the other people involved is classified as gross negligence.
Generally, this type of negligence is considered to be a failure to execute the required level of care - or any care at all - in the efforts made to protect someone else from being harmed.
Comparative Negligence
More than one person can be legally at fault for causing an accident that resulted from negligent conduct. Comparative negligence is the degree of responsibility for the accident that can be attributed to one party who sues another for a personal injury alleging that the other party was the negligent cause of his or her injury.
Essentially, comparative negligence balances the level of responsibility between two parties who may have both been partially a fault for an accident that caused the injury.
Criminal Negligence
Standards of care have been strictly outlined among professionals in their respective fields. It is when these standards of care are grossly overlooked or deviated from that the other individuals involved are put at high risk of being injured or harmed in some manner. When these acts are considered to be so far out of bounds from the norm from what they should be these actions can be classified as criminal in nature.
Criminal negligence is a crime. To be convicted of this crime the DA must prove that the defendant acted in such a reckless manner that he or she created a high risk of death or great bodily injury to the victim and that the acts showed a disregard for human life or an indifferent attitude toward the consequences and that a reasonable person in similar circumstances would have known that the acts will naturally and or probably cause harm to other persons.

The best call I made after my accident was to Barry Regar. He and his team are responsive and smart and managed the pain of dealing with the insurance company and others as I recovered from a broken arm--the result of a trip and fall. Barry Regar successfully got me a generous settlement that was easily twice what I had hoped for!

Many are quick to denigrate lawyers but not all lawyers deserve the reputation. I called Barry Regar on a Sunday afternoon and, unlike the others I Called, Barry returned my call quickly even though it was Sunday. After I gave Barry the history of my accident he acted quickly and decisively. He laid out how things would proceed, The expected timeline of events, and a clear understanding of his charges. Barry did not hand me off to an associate but rather was hands-on throughout the process. Barry communicated regularly, keeping me informed as to the progress he was making and what to expect. I never felt like he left me hanging. When I called him, he was always quick to answer the phone. Everything happened just as he said. We got the maximum from the other party. I would highly recommend Barry to anyone needing good, strong representation in the courts.- Robert H.

Barry Regar is a Top Personal Injury Lawyer with four decades of experience and fought my case with the Insurance Company and won! I am very pleased! I had a trip and fall accident and I was trying to get over the pain. A friend suggested I call Barry Regar and I'm glad I did! My pain got worse and I had many tests and Doctor appointments. Barry was so knowledgeable with personal insurance companies and Medicare and he solved many billing issues that kept coming up! Barry has impeccable follow-through and would always call me with questions or good news! He handled my claim expertly and made it so easy for me since I know nothing about personal injury law and it would have been a monumental task to do it myself. Barry's assistant was always there for me and as a team, they work wonderfully together and his door is always open! I was very pleased with the final results, it has made my life much easier.
