It sounds like that if you can prove it, he is very much at fault in this instance. I would contact the store/mall security to see if there is surveillance or utilize any witnesses or else this may be deemed 50/50 fault if there is no stead-fast proof. Regardless of the illegal parking, the driver of the vehicle in motion is responsible for any damages that occur. The law will presume he or she did not use reasonable caution in the operation of the vehicle.

You if you were backing up. If you were waiting at a stop sign or stoplight or even an entrance and someone else hit you, it would be the person behind's fault.
If you are backing up in a parking lot and you strike a car that is parked where there is not even a spot are you liable or is he?
Think about this your are backing up, and your neighbors little boy is playing in your yard, and he isn't supposed to be in your yard and you hit him, (a) did you see him? can you hit him because he is not supposed to be there? We are responsible to know what is behind us and be aware of where our car is going. Two wrongs do not make it right. I think you are responsible for hitting a car that is behind you when your are backing up.
You were at a complete stop in a parking lot when the car ahead of you began backing up and then hit you you feel as though she is completely liable as your vehicle was not even moving are you correct?
yes you are correct. the person backing up is responsible for making sure the area behind their vehicle is clear.

Any driver that is the backing vehicle has a greater and duty and care to maintain proper lookout at all times. The driver that was traveling on the throughfare has control of the lane of travel and the backing vehicle must yield to them. Infortunately, you would the proximate cause of the accident for improper backing.
