Q: What is “duty” and how does it apply to my Missouri personal injury case?

A: “Duty” refers to another person’s legal responsibility to act with reasonable care toward you.
Examples include:

  • Another driver sharing the road with you
  • A business maintaining its walkways safely
  • A manufacturer designing a safe product
  • A doctor performing surgery

We all owe certain duties of care in everyday life. When someone fails to uphold that duty, issues can arise.
