Liability in Driveway and Parking Lot Accident Claims

Driveway and parking lot accidents frequently involve questions of right of way, reversing vehicles, poor visibility, distracted driving, and unsafe property conditions. Liability may rest with a driver, a property owner, a commercial business, or multiple parties depending on the circumstances.
