Motor Vehicle Litigation

In the majority of motor vehicle collision cases, the plaintiff's amount is reduced by their percentage of the fault. The jury will make this decision in accordance with the evidence they are presented.

To be liable for an injury the defendant must have been negligent at the time of the incident. The amount of liability is determined by the degree of negligence which contributed to the incident.

Liability

The objective of a claim for motor vehicle accidents is to recover damages from the other party in exchange for injuries and losses that were caused due to their negligence. A lawsuit for an auto or trucking crash will require that the victim's claim be proven that the defendant's negligent actions or inaction caused a collision and the bodily injury that resulted from it.

An experienced attorney can help you determine whether the person at fault or a different defendant is accountable for your losses. Most auto accident cases hinge on the plaintiff's ability prove the defendant's guilt based on tort liability principles. This includes a defendant’s obligation to the victim, a defendant's breach of this duty, actual and direct causation and injuries.

A competent lawyer can help analyze liability in situations in which the insured driver or owner of the vehicle is a party in a lawsuit. Most automobile insurance policies contain an affirmative guarantee of coverage to anyone driving the vehicle with owner's permission subject to certain exclusions. This analysis also includes a look at of CPLR SS 1602.

Damages

A successful motor vehicle accident lawsuits vehicle suit must prove the damages suffered by a plaintiff. This is typically done by providing detailed documentation of expenses out of pocket as well as future losses that are likely to result from the injuries suffered. These are known as economic and noneconomic damages.

The former is for things like medical expenses and lost income, while the latter compensates for intangibles, such as suffering and pain. It is difficult to quantify an amount in dollars for non-economic damages like mental suffering and loss of enjoyment in life.

Your lawyer will assist in calculating your damages through the use of a range of techniques. This may include retaining accident reconstruction experts who look over police reports, photos and witnesses' statements, and other evidence to reconstruct the accident.

Your lawyer will also support your claim by providing expert opinions detailing the economic and non-economic effects of your injuries. These will include estimates of costs for future care and support as well as wage projections and other financial factors. This is necessary to ensure you are fully compensated for the losses you've incurred and experience in the future.

Comparative Fault

In the event of a car crash, the system known as comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of blame the injured party is accountable for. This is a major issue in a variety of cases and something your lawyer may have to prove.

The majority of states have some kind of comparative fault rule that allows victims to receive compensation regardless of whether their part of the blame is for an accident. The amount of compensation will be determined by their level of blame. For example when a jury will award you $100,000 for injuries, but concludes that you're 40 percent at fault, you'd receive only $60,000.

There are two kinds of modified comparative-fault rules. The first is referred to as the 50% bar rule, which prevents an injured party from receiving damages if they are more than 50% at fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that follow this rule. Another variation, known as pure comparative negligence, allows victims to seek damages in the event that they are found to be 99 per cent at fault.

Statute of Limitations

In the majority of instances, an individual who has been injured involved in a car accident may file a lawsuit. However these lawsuits must be filed within a specified time period, referred to as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim is deemed to be void and barred forever.

The statute of limitation has nothing to do whether or not an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the event that triggered the case, and the incident or accident which caused the injury. Therefore, calculating exactly when the clock begins to tick is vital for the proper application of this important legal rule.

In New York, people who are injured in car crashes generally have three years to make personal injury lawsuits. This time frame can be reduced in certain situations, however. For instance, in situations where minors are involved the statute of limitations is paused until the child is free by marrying or turning 18 which typically takes two years after the date of the accident. There are also exceptions, and experienced attorneys can help you understand the particulars.
