Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

Re: Accident Injury

Yes, you can. Even people without any prior injury will have varying degrees of agility, health and fitness. We have a saying "you take your victims as you find them." What this means is that disabled and weak people have every right to use sidewalks, etc.

As long as the person in the new accident was negligent and his negligence was a cause of the accident, it is irrelevant that you already had an injury. He is responsible for any losses for the WORSENING of your condition. You do not charge the first negligent person for the new injuries though.

Re: Accident Injury

Probably, if you have not waived your rights , and you need to prove it is a result of the first injury.
