Motor Vehicle Litigation
A lawsuit is necessary in cases where liability is challenged. 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 you to be the cause of a crash the amount of damages awarded will be reduced by your percentage of negligence. This rule does not apply to owners of vehicles which are rented out or leased to minors.
Duty of Care
In a case of negligence, the plaintiff has to prove that the defendant was bound by the duty of care toward them. Most people owe this duty to everyone else, but those who are behind the wheel of a motor vehicle case vehicle are obligated to others in their area of operation. This includes not causing accidents in motor vehicles.
In courtrooms, the standard of care is determined by comparing an individual's actions with what a typical person would do in similar circumstances. Expert witnesses are often required in cases involving medical negligence. Experts with a higher level of expertise in a particular field may also be held to an higher standard of care than others in similar situations.
If someone violates their duty of care, it could cause damage to the victim as well as their property. The victim then has to demonstrate that the defendant did not fulfill their duty and caused the injury or damages they suffered. Proving causation is a critical element in any negligence case which involves looking at both the actual reason for the injury or damages and the proximate reason for the injury or damage.
For example, if someone is stopped at a red light and is stopped, they will be hit by a vehicle. If their car is damaged they'll be accountable for the repairs. However, the real cause of the crash could be a cut in the brick, which then develops into a potentially dangerous infection.
Breach of Duty
The second element of negligence is the breach of duty by the defendant. The breach of duty must be proved in order to receive compensation in a personal injury case. A breach of duty happens when the actions of the party at fault fall short of what an average person would do in similar circumstances.
For instance, a physician has several professional duties to his patients stemming from state law and licensing boards. Motorists have a duty of care to other drivers and pedestrians to drive safely and observe traffic laws. Drivers who violate this duty and motor vehicle litigation creates an accident is accountable for the injuries sustained by the victim.
A lawyer can use the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of the duty of care, and then show that the defendant did not comply with the standard in his actions. The jury will decide if the defendant met or did not meet the standard.
The plaintiff must also prove that the breach of duty by the defendant was the primary cause of his or her injuries. It can be more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. For example an individual defendant could have crossed a red light, but the action wasn't the proximate cause of the crash. The issue of causation is often challenged in cases of crash by defendants.
Causation
In motor vehicle claim vehicle-related cases, the plaintiff must establish that there is a causal connection between the breach of the defendant and the injuries. For instance, if the plaintiff sustained neck injuries as a result of a rear-end collision, his or her lawyer might claim that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that contributed to the collision, like being in a stationary vehicle are not considered to be culpable and will not influence the jury’s determination of the degree of fault.
It could be more difficult to establish a causal link between a negligent act and the psychological issues of the plaintiff. The fact that the plaintiff had an uneasy childhood, a bad relationship with their parents, experimented with alcohol and drugs, or suffered prior unemployment could have a impact on the severity of the psychological issues he or suffers following an accident, however, the courts typically consider these factors as part of the context that led to the accident from which the plaintiff's injury was triggered, not as a separate reason for the injuries.
It is imperative to consult an experienced lawyer if you have been involved in a serious motor vehicle accident. Arnold & Clifford LLP attorneys have extensive experience representing clients in motor vehicle settlement vehicle accident, commercial and business litigation, and personal injury cases. Our lawyers have developed working relationships with independent physicians in many areas of expertise as well as expert witnesses in computer simulations and reconstruction of accident.
Damages
In motor vehicle litigation, a plaintiff can get both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages comprises any financial costs that are easily added up and calculated as a total, for example, medical expenses and lost wages, property repair and even future financial losses like a diminished earning capacity.
New York law recognizes that non-economic damages like pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life cannot be reduced to cash. However these damages must be proven to exist by a variety of evidence, including deposition testimony of the plaintiff's close friends and family members, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.
In cases involving multiple defendants, Courts will often use comparative negligence rules to determine the percentage of damages awarded should be divided between them. This requires the jury to determine how much responsibility each defendant incurred in the accident and then divide the total amount of damages by the percentage of fault. New York law however, does not allow for this. 1602 exempts owners of vehicles from the comparative negligence rule in cases where injuries are sustained by drivers of cars or trucks. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissive usage applies is not straightforward and typically only a convincing evidence that the owner explicitly refused permission to operate the vehicle will overcome it.
