tucson motor vehicle accident Attorney Vehicle Litigation

When liability is contested then it is necessary to file a lawsuit. The defendant will then be given the chance to respond to the complaint.

New York follows pure comparative fault rules which means that when a jury finds you to be at fault for causing a crash the damages awarded to you will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. This rule is not applicable to owners of vehicles that are rented or leased out to minors.

Duty of Care

In a case of negligence the plaintiff must show that the defendant had the duty of care toward them. This duty is due to all people, however those who operate a vehicle owe an even greater duty to other drivers in their field. This includes ensuring that they do not cause accidents in kennett square motor vehicle accident attorney vehicles.

In courtrooms, the quality of care is determined by comparing an individual's conduct against what a normal individual would do in similar situations. Expert witnesses are often required in cases of medical malpractice. People who have superior knowledge in a particular field can be held to an even higher standard of care than others in similar situations.

When a person breaches their duty of care, it could cause harm to the victim and/or their property. The victim must prove that the defendant breached their duty of care and caused the injury or damages they suffered. Causation is a key element of any negligence claim. It involves proving both the actual and proximate causes of the injuries and damages.

For instance, if a driver has a red light and is stopped, they will be hit by a car. If their car is damaged they will be responsible for the repairs. The reason for an accident could be a fracture in the brick that leads to an infection.

Breach of Duty

A defendant's breach of duty is the second element of negligence that needs to be proved in order to receive compensation in a personal injury case. A breach of duty occurs when the actions of the at-fault party are insufficient to what an ordinary person would do under similar circumstances.

For instance, a physician has a variety of professional obligations to his patients that are governed by laws of the state and licensing boards. Motorists have a duty of care to other motorists and pedestrians to be safe and follow traffic laws. If a motorist violates this duty of care and results in an accident, he is liable for the injury suffered by the victim.

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

The plaintiff must also prove that the defendant's negligence was the primary cause of the plaintiff's injuries. It can be more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. For instance, a defendant may have run a red light however, the act was not the sole cause of your bicycle crash. Causation is often contested in cases of crash by defendants.

Causation

In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal connection between the defendant's breach of duty and their injuries. If a plaintiff suffers a neck injury in an accident with rear-end damage then his or her attorney would argue that the accident was the reason for the injury. Other elements that are required in causing the collision such as being in a stationary vehicle 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 act, and the plaintiff's psychological problems. It may be that the plaintiff has a rocky background, a strained relationship with their parents, or has used alcohol or drugs.

It is crucial to consult an experienced attorney if you have been involved in a serious motor vehicle accident. The lawyers at Arnold & Clifford, LLP have years of experience representing clients in personal injury as well as commercial and business litigation and motor vehicle accident cases. Our lawyers have formed working relationships with independent doctors in various specialties as well as experts in computer simulations and reconstruction of accidents.

Damages

In motor vehicle litigation, a person can get both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages encompasses all costs that can easily be added up and calculated as the total amount, which includes medical treatments, lost wages, repairs to property, or even a future financial loss, for instance the loss of earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages such as suffering and pain, and loss of enjoyment of living are not able to be reduced to money. The damages must be proven through extensive evidence such as depositions of family members or friends of the plaintiff, medical records, or other expert witness testimony.

In cases where there are multiple defendants, Courts will often use rules of comparative negligence to determine how much of the damages award should be allocated between them. The jury must decide the amount of fault each defendant is accountable for the accident and then divide the total damages awarded by the same percentage. New York law however, does not permit this. 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule in relation to injuries suffered by driver of those cars and trucks. The resulting analysis of whether the presumption that permissive use applies is complicated and typically only a clear proof that the owner specifically did not have permission to operate his vehicle will overcome it.
