motor vehicle accident lawsuit Vehicle Litigation

A lawsuit is required in cases where liability is challenged. The defendant will then have the chance to respond to the complaint.

New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that if a jury finds you to be at fault for an accident the amount of damages you will be reduced based on your percentage of fault. This rule does not apply to the owners of vehicles that are which are rented out or leased to minors.

Duty of Care

In a negligence suit the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant was obligated to exercise reasonable care. This duty is owed to everyone, but people who operate a vehicle owe an even greater duty to others in their field. This includes ensuring that they do not cause accidents in motor vehicles.

In courtrooms the standard of care is determined by comparing an individual's behavior with what a typical person would do in the same circumstances. This is why expert witnesses are often required in cases involving medical malpractice. Experts who have a superior understanding in a particular field can also be held to the highest standards of care than other people in similar situations.

A person's breach of their duty of care can cause harm to a victim or their property. The victim has to show that the defendant violated their duty and caused the injury or damage they sustained. Causation is an important part of any negligence claim. It requires proving both the proximate and actual causes of the damage and injury.

If a person is stopped at a stop sign and fails to obey the stop sign, they could be struck by another vehicle. If their vehicle is damaged, they'll be accountable for repairs. However, the real cause of the accident could be a cut on bricks that later develop into a serious infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty by the defendant. This must be proved in order to be awarded compensation in a personal injury case. A breach of duty occurs when the actions of the party at fault do not match what a reasonable person would do in similar circumstances.

A doctor, for example is a professional with a range of professional duties towards his patients that are derived from the law of the state and licensing bodies. Drivers are bound to protect other motorists and pedestrians, and to follow traffic laws. A driver who breaches this obligation and results in an accident is responsible for the victim's injuries.

A lawyer may use the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of an obligation of care. The lawyer must then prove that the defendant did not meet the standard in his actions. It is a matter of fact that the jury has to decide whether the defendant complied with the standard or not.

The plaintiff must also prove that the breach by the defendant was the primary cause of the plaintiff's injuries. It is more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. A defendant might have walked through a red light however, that's not the reason for the bicycle accident. Causation is often contested in crash cases by defendants.

Causation

In motor vehicle accidents, the plaintiff must establish a causal link between the defendant's breach and their injuries. For instance, if the plaintiff suffered neck injuries as a result of a rear-end collision and their lawyer might argue that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that are necessary for the collision to occur, like being in a stationary car, are not culpable, and do not affect the jury's decision of the liability.

It can be difficult to establish a causal relationship between a negligent action and the plaintiff's psychological symptoms. The reality that the plaintiff experienced a troubles in his or her childhood, had a difficult relationship with his or her parents, abused alcohol and drugs or previous unemployment may have some impact on the severity of the psychological problems he or suffers following an accident, but courts generally view these factors as an element of the background conditions that led to the accident from which the plaintiff's injury resulted rather than an independent cause of the injuries.

It is imperative to consult an experienced lawyer if you have been involved in a serious accident. Arnold & Clifford LLP attorneys have years of experience in representing clients in motor vehicle accidents, commercial and business litigation, as well as personal injury cases. Our lawyers have formed working relationships with independent doctors with a variety of specialties including expert witnesses in accident reconstruction and computer simulations as well as with private investigators.

Damages

The damages plaintiffs can seek in a Motor Vehicle Accident Attorney vehicle lawsuit include both economic and non-economic damages. The first type of damages encompasses all financial costs that can easily be added up and calculated into a total, such as medical expenses, lost wages, repairs to property, and even future financial loss, for instance the loss of earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages like suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of life, cannot be reduced to money. However these damages must be established to exist by a variety of evidence, including deposition testimony from the plaintiff's family members and close friends medical records, other expert witness testimony.

In the event of multiple defendants, courts will typically apply the rules of comparative fault to determine the amount of total damages to be split between them. The jury must decide the percentage of fault each defendant is responsible for the incident, and divide the total amount of damages awarded by the same percentage. However, New York law 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule with respect to injuries sustained by the driver of these vehicles and trucks. The analysis to determine whether the presumption is permissive or not is complex. The majority of the time, only a clear demonstration that the owner refused permission for the driver to operate the vehicle can overcome the presumption.
