June 17, 2025 By Bar Exam Toolbox Leave a Comment

Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, we’re discussing the different methods a plaintiff may use to establish the second element of a negligence claim — breach. We also talk about the “res ipsa loquitur” doctrine, and we will walk through several hypotheticals involving breach of the standard of care.

In this episode we discuss:

  • An overview of negligence claims
  • The reasonable person standard
  • The “res ipsa loquitur” doctrine
  • Hypothetical scenarios involving breach of the standard of care
