Motor Vehicle Litigation

If the liability is challenged in court, it becomes necessary to file a lawsuit. The defendant has the option to respond to the complaint.

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

Duty of Care

In a case of negligence, the plaintiff has to prove that the defendant owed a duty of care towards them. This duty is due to all people, however those who operate a vehicle owe an even greater obligation to others in their field. This includes not causing accidents in motor vehicles.

In courtrooms, the standard of care is determined by comparing the actions of an individual to what a normal person would do in similar situations. In cases of medical malpractice experts are often required. Experts with a superior understanding of the field could be held to a higher standard of medical care.

A breach of a person's obligation of care can cause harm to the victim or their property. The victim is then required to prove that the defendant's breach of their duty caused the damage and injury they suffered. Causation is an important part of any negligence claim. It involves proving the primary and secondary causes of the damage and injury.

For example, if someone runs a red light, it's likely that they'll be struck by another car. If their vehicle is damaged, they will need to pay for repairs. The real cause of a crash could be caused by a fracture in the brick that leads to an infection.

Breach of Duty

A defendant's breach of duty is the second aspect of negligence that has to be proved in order to receive compensation in a personal injury suit. A breach of duty is when the actions taken by the at-fault person fall short of what a normal person would do in similar circumstances.

A doctor, for example is a professional with a range of professional obligations to his patients, which stem from laws 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. Any driver who fails to adhere to this duty and causes an accident is accountable for the injuries of the victim.

A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of a duty of care and then show that the defendant failed to meet the standard in his actions. The jury will decide if the defendant fulfilled or did not meet the standard.

The plaintiff must also establish that the breach of duty of the defendant was the primary cause of the injuries. This can be more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty and breach. A defendant may have run through a red light however, that's not the reason for the bicycle accident. This is why causation is often challenged by the defendants in case of a crash.

Causation

In motor vehicle accident law firms vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal link between the defendant's breach of duty and their injuries. For example, if the plaintiff suffered neck injuries as a result of an accident that involved rear-ends and his or her lawyer will argue that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that are needed to cause the collision, such as being in a stationary vehicle, are not culpable and will not affect the jury's decision of the liability.

It could be more difficult to establish a causal link between a negligent act, and the psychological symptoms of the plaintiff. The fact that the plaintiff suffered from a a troubled childhood, poor relationship with their parents, abused alcohol and drugs or had prior unemployment could have a bearing on the severity of the psychological issues he or suffers from following an accident, however, the courts typically view these elements as an element of the background conditions that caused the accident in which the plaintiff was triggered, not as a separate reason for the injuries.

If you've been involved in an accident that is serious to your vehicle It is imperative to consult with an experienced attorney. The attorneys at Arnold & Clifford, LLP, have extensive experience in representing clients in personal injury cases, business and commercial litigation, and motor vehicle accident cases. Our lawyers have developed working relationships with independent physicians in many specialties as well as expert witnesses in computer simulations as well as reconstruction of accidents.

Damages

In motor vehicle accident attorneys vehicle litigation, a plaintiff could get both economic and non-economic damages. The first type of damages covers all monetary costs which are easily added together and then calculated into a total, such as medical expenses as well as lost wages, repairs to property, or even a future financial loss, for instance diminished earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, such as suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of living can't be reduced to money. However, these damages must be proved to exist through extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony from plaintiff's close family members and friends, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.

In cases that involve multiple defendants, Courts will often use the concept of comparative negligence to decide how much of the total damages award should be allocated between them. The jury must determine the proportion of fault each defendant has for the accident and then divide the total amount of damages awarded by that percentage. New York law however, doesn't allow this. 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule in relation to injuries sustained by the driver of the vehicles. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissive use applies is complicated, and typically only a clear proof that the owner explicitly refused permission to operate the car will overcome it.
