motor vehicle accidents Vehicle Litigation
In the majority of motor vehicle accident cases, the plaintiff's damages amount is reduced by their percentage of the fault. The jury will decide this in accordance with the evidence presented to them.
To be held accountable for an injury, the defendant must have been negligent at the time of the incident. Liability is based on the degree to which negligence caused the accident.
Liability
The purpose of a accident claim is to seek damages for the damage and losses caused by the negligence of a third party. A lawsuit arising out of an auto or trucking crash will require that the victim of the accident prove that the defendant's negligent actions or failure to act resulted in a collision and the bodily injury that resulted from it.
An experienced attorney can assist you in determining whether the driver who was at fault or another defendant is responsible for your losses. The majority of auto accident cases are based on the plaintiff's ability to demonstrate the liability of their defendant on the traditional tort liability rules, including a defendant's duty to the plaintiff, the defendant's violation of this duty, the actual and proximate cause, and injuries.
A knowledgeable lawyer can help analyze liability in situations where the insured driver or the owner of the vehicle is a party in a lawsuit. Most insurance policies for automobiles provide an affirmative guarantee of insurance to anyone operating the vehicle with owner's permission, subject to certain exclusions. This analysis will include a review of CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit will establish the damages sustained by plaintiff. This is usually accomplished by providing detailed documentation on out-of pocket expenses which are incurred, and also the loss that is expected as a result of the injuries suffered. These are referred to as non-economic and economic damages.
The former covers things like medical expenses and lost income as well as compensation for intangibles such pain and suffering. Sometimes, it is difficult to assign an exact dollar value to damages that are not economic such as mental anxiety and loss of enjoyment of life.
Your attorney will help you calculate your damages through a variety of ways. This includes hiring experts in the field of accident reconstruction who review images of the scene, police reports, witness testimony, and other evidence to reconstruct the circumstances of the crash.
Your attorney will also help to support your claim by providing expert opinions detailing the economic and other consequences of your injuries. This includes estimates of future medical and support costs, wage projections and other financial considerations.

Comparative Fault
In a car accident a system known as comparative blame (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of fault the injured party is accountable for. This is a major issue in many cases and something your lawyer may be required to prove.
Many states have a type of comparative fault rule that allows victims to be compensated even if their share of the blame lies with an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be reduced based on their degree of fault. If, for example a jury awards $100,000 for your injuries but finds that you are at least 40 percent responsible, you will only receive $60,000.
However, the law is much more complicated than that because there are two distinct kinds of modified rules of comparative fault. The first is referred to as the 50 bar rule, which prohibits the victim from claiming damages if they are more than 50 percent at the fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that adhere to this rule. Another variant, referred to as pure comparative negligence, permits victims to seek damages if they're found to be 99 percent at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In the majority of cases, an injured person involved in a car accident may make a claim. However, these lawsuits must, be filed within the prescribed time of limitations or the victim's claim is forever barred.
The statute of limitations has nothing to have anything to do with whether the defendant's insurance company will settle the case, and it is all about the trigger event in the case-the incident or accident that caused the injury. Thus, knowing precisely when the clock begins to tick is essential for ensuring compliance with this important legal requirement.
In New York, those injured in car accidents have up to three years to start a personal injury lawsuit. This time frame can be reduced in some circumstances, however. For example, in cases where a minor is involved the statute of limitations is paused until the child is free by marrying or turning 18 which is typically two years after the accident. There are other exceptions, and a skilled lawyer can advise on the particulars.
