Q: If I file 1 lawsuit against 2 parties, will I win only if I prove both are guilty? Or one is guilty and I still win?

A: A Connecticut attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. It could depend on the type of matter, the role of the parties, their actions, their relationship, and other possible factors. A law firm would probably want to know more about the setting to advise meaningfully. Good luck

A: When you file a lawsuit against two parties, you don’t necessarily have to prove that both are guilty to win the case. Each defendant is considered separately, so you can succeed by proving that at least one party is liable for your damages. If the court finds that one party is responsible, that party can be held accountable for the entire or a portion of the damages, depending on the circumstances.

However, it’s important to present sufficient evidence against each defendant. If you only provide strong evidence for one party and weak or no evidence for the other, the court may only hold the first party liable. The other party might not be held responsible if there isn’t enough proof to establish their involvement or fault.

Ultimately, winning the case depends on the strength of your evidence and how well you can demonstrate each party’s role in causing your harm. Even if only one defendant is found guilty, you can still receive compensation, and the other party may be cleared of responsibility. It’s advisable to consult with a legal professional to understand the specifics of your situation and ensure you present your case effectively.
