Legal Liability

Legal liability refers to the responsibility an individual or organization has when they cause harm or injury to someone else, either through action or negligence. If a person is found legally liable, they may be required to compensate the affected party for damages, such as medical expenses or lost wages. Liability can arise in various situations, including accidents, breaches of contract, or violations of laws. Understanding legal liability helps individuals and businesses recognize their responsibilities and the potential legal consequences of their actions.
