Motor Vehicle Litigation

In most motor vehicle accident lawsuits, the plaintiff’s damages are diminished by their percentage of fault. This is determined by the jury on the basis of evidence presented to them.

In order to be held liable for a personal injury, the defendant has to have been negligent during the incident. The degree of liability is determined by degree of negligence that contributed to the incident.

Liability

The aim of a motor crash claim is to seek compensation from the other party in exchange for damages and injuries caused due to their negligence. A lawsuit arising out of an auto or trucking collision will require that the victim's claim be proven that the defendant's negligent actions or inaction led to a collision, and the bodily injury that resulted from it.

An experienced attorney can assist you in determining whether the driver who was at fault or another defendant is responsible for your losses. Most auto accident cases hinge on the plaintiff's ability to prove the defendant's fault using tort liability principles. This includes a defendant’s duty to the victim, defendant's failure to fulfill this duty, direct and real causation and injuries.

A skilled lawyer can also assist in determining the liability of a situation in which the insured driver or the owner of the vehicle are involved in a lawsuit. The majority of insurance policies for automobiles provide coverage to any person who drives the vehicle with the consent of the owner, with certain exceptions. This analysis also includes a look at of CPLR SS 1602.

Damages

A successful motor vehicle lawsuit will establish the damages sustained by plaintiff. This is usually accomplished by providing a detailed account of the expenses incurred out of pocket and also the potential for future losses to arise as a result of the injuries suffered. These are referred to as economic and non-economic damages.

The former is for things like medical expenses and lost income, while the latter pays for intangibles, such as pain and suffering. It can be difficult to establish the dollar value of non-economic damages like mental suffering and loss of enjoyment.

Your attorney will assist you in the calculation of your damages by making use of a variety of methodologies. This includes retaining accident reconstruction experts who will review images of the scene, police reports, witness testimony and other evidence to understand how the crash occurred.

Your attorney will also bolster your case with expert opinions detailing the economic and non-economic consequences of your injuries. This will include estimates of the cost for care and support in the future as well as wage projections and other financial aspects. These are vital to ensure that you're fully compensated for any losses you've suffered and will continue to be afflicted in the future.

Comparative Fault

A system called comparative fault or contributory negligence, determines how much fault an injured person is accountable for a car crash. It's a key issue in a variety of cases and something that your attorney might need to prove.

Many states have a type of comparative fault rule which allows victims to receive compensation even if a portion of the blame is for an accident. The amount of the settlement will be determined by the degree of fault. If, for example an appeals court awards $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you're at 40% responsible, you will only receive $60,000.

But the law is more complicated than that, since there are two distinct types of modified comparative fault rules. The second is known as the 50 bar rule, which prevents the victim from receiving damages when they are more than 50% at the fault. It is used by a few states, including Colorado and Utah. The other type is pure comparative fault, which permits victims to recover damages even if found to be at fault.

Statute of limitations

In the majority of instances, a person injured who is injured in a car crash may make a claim. These lawsuits must, however, be filed within the prescribed time of limitations or the claim of the victim is forever barred.

The statute of limitations does not affect whether or not an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the initial event that triggered the case, or the incident or accident that caused the injury. Thus, knowing precisely when the clock begins to run is crucial in ensuring compliance with this important legal requirement.

In New York, people who suffer injuries in car crashes generally have three years to make personal injury lawsuits. In some cases the timeline may be reduced. In cases where a minor is involved, as in the statute is suspended until the child becomes liberated, which is accomplished by marrying or reaching the age of 18 usually two years after the incident. There are other exceptions, and an experienced attorney can give advice on the specifics.
