When a claim for liability is litigated then it is necessary to start a lawsuit. The Defendant will then have the opportunity to respond to the complaint.

New York follows pure comparative fault rules, which means that if the jury finds that you are responsible for causing an accident the damages awarded to you will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. There is an exception to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes owners of vehicles that are rented or leased to minors.

Duty of Care

In a case of negligence the plaintiff must show that the defendant owed the duty of care towards them. This duty is due to all, but those who operate a vehicle owe an even greater obligation to others in their field. This includes ensuring that they don't cause accidents in motor vehicles.

Courtrooms compare an individual's actions with what a normal person would do in similar circumstances to determine what constitutes a reasonable standard of care. This is why expert witnesses are frequently required in cases of medical malpractice. Experts with more experience in specific fields could be held to a higher standard of treatment.

If someone violates their duty of care, it can cause harm to the victim and/or their property. The victim then has to prove that the defendant breached their duty and caused the harm or damages they sustained. Causation proof is a crucial aspect of any negligence case, and it involves taking into consideration both the real basis of the injury or damages as well as the cause of the injury or damage.

If a person is stopped at an stop sign, they are likely to be struck by another vehicle. If their car is damaged, they will be responsible for the repairs. The real cause of an accident could be a brick cut that causes an infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty committed by an individual defendant. It must be proven for compensation for a personal injury claim. A breach of duty is when the actions taken by the at-fault party fall short of what a normal person would do in similar circumstances.

A doctor, for example has a variety of professional obligations towards his patients. These obligations stem from the law of the state and licensing bodies. Motorists have a duty of care to other motorists and pedestrians on the road to drive safely and obey traffic laws. If a motorist violates this duty of care and results in an accident, he is accountable for the injuries suffered by the victim.

A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of the duty of care, and then demonstrate that the defendant did not comply with the standard in his actions. The jury will determine if the defendant met or did not meet the standards.

The plaintiff must also prove that the breach of duty of the defendant was the primary cause of the injuries. This is sometimes more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty and breach. A defendant could have run through a red light but that's not the cause of the crash on your bicycle. Causation is often contested in cases of crash by defendants.

Causation

In richmond motor vehicle Accident Law Firm vehicle cases, the plaintiff has to establish a causal connection between the defendant's breach of duty and the injuries. For example, if the plaintiff suffered an injury to his neck in a rear-end collision and their lawyer will argue that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that are necessary to cause the collision, like being in a stationary car are not culpable and will not influence the jury’s determination of fault.

It may be harder to establish a causal link between a negligent act, and the plaintiff's psychological symptoms. The fact that the plaintiff had an uneasy childhood, a bad relationship with his or her parents, was a user of drugs and alcohol or experienced prior unemployment could have a bearing on the severity of the psychological issues he or is suffering from following a crash, but the courts typically view these elements as part of the context that caused the accident in which the plaintiff occurred, rather than as an independent cause of the injuries.

It is imperative to consult an experienced attorney when you've been involved in a serious motor accident. Arnold & Clifford LLP attorneys have extensive experience in representing clients in motor vehicle accident cases, business and commercial litigation, as well as personal injury cases.

Damages

In motor vehicle litigation, a plaintiff can recover both economic and noneconomic damages. The first category of damages is any monetary costs that are easily added to calculate an amount, like medical expenses, lost wages, property repair and even future financial losses like a diminished earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, like suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment cannot be reduced to financial value. However, these damages must be proved 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 typically use the comparative fault rule to determine the amount of total damages to be divided between them. This requires the jury to determine how much fault each defendant was at fault for the accident and then divide the total amount of damages by the percentage of the fault. New York law however, does not allow this. 1602 disqualifies vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in cases where injuries are sustained by the drivers of cars or trucks. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissive use applies is complex and usually only a clear evidence that the owner was explicitly denied permission to operate the car will overcome it.
