A finding that accepts something as fact within a
civil setting has only to reach the 'balance of probability' level of
proof. That means that if the probability of it being true are 51%,
then it is accepted, on the balance of probability, as true.
For
example, If you claim to be driving down a road, and a car went through
a red light and drove into the side of you, causing you injuries. If
the only two people who can give evidence are you and the other driver
and he maintains his light was green, as well, then you have a balanced
arguement. This is usually as far as a police report goes.
However,
if we dig and find old Mrs Smithers who sits on her from porch up the
road saw what happens and she was certain the light was red against the
other driver when she looked after hearing the crash, then the weight
of evidence in your favour is over 50% and in the civil court that may
be enough to find in your favour, even if the witness wasn't watching
at the instant of the other driver entering the intersection.
This is an indication of the importance of prompt, professional investigation to protect your interests in a civil action. The insurance company may wait years to investigate a matter. These brings many problems.
Solicitors can be just as bad, and try to use the
other sides insurance investigation and find faults with that, without
conducting their own. A solicitor or barrister's focus is usually the
theatre of court (and I do mean theatre), and their knowledge of
precedence, case law, leading cases and the admissibility of evidence.
