Motor Vehicle Litigation

In the majority of motor vehicle crash cases, the plaintiff's damages amount is reduced by their percentage of fault. This is decided by the jury based on evidence presented to them.

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

Liability

The objective of a motor accident claim is to recover damages from the other party to compensate for injuries and losses that were caused due to their negligence. Unless the injured victim lives in one of the states that operate under a no-fault insurance system the filing of an auto or trucking accident lawsuit requires that the negligent act of a defendant or inaction caused a collision with the resulting bodily injury.

An experienced attorney can assist you in determining the fault of the driver or a different defendant is accountable for your losses. The majority of auto accident cases are based on the plaintiff's ability to prove their defendant's liability based on the principles of tort liability that include a defendant's responsibility to the plaintiff, the breach of this duty, actual and proximate cause, and injuries.

Additionally, a knowledgeable lawyer can assist you in determining liability in situations where the insured driver or the owner of the vehicle might be the subject of lawsuits as well. The majority of automobile insurance policies provide coverage to any person who drives the vehicle under the authority of the owner, subject to certain exceptions. This analysis often includes reviewing CPLR SS 1602.

Damages

A successful motor vehicle lawsuit must prove the damages suffered by the plaintiff. This is typically accomplished by providing comprehensive evidence of the expenses and the loss that is anticipated due to the injuries suffered. These are called economic and non-economic damages.

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

Your lawyer will assist you calculate your damages through a variety of ways. This could include hiring accident reconstruction experts who will examine police reports, photos as well as witnesses' testimony and other evidence in order to reconstruct the crash.

Your attorney will also support your claim by getting expert opinions that detail the economic and noneconomic effects of your injuries. These will include estimates of future healthcare and support costs, wage projections and other financial factors. These are necessary to ensure that you're fully compensated for losses you have incurred and will be able to recover in the future.

Comparative Fault

In a car accident a system called comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the degree of fault the injured party is accountable for. In many instances, it's a crucial aspect that your lawyer will need to prove.

The majority of states have some kind of a comparative fault system that allows victims to be compensated regardless of whether their part of the blame is for an accident. The amount of compensation will be based on the level of blame. So, for example If a jury awards you $100,000 for your injuries, but concludes that you're 40 percent at fault, you'd be awarded only $60,000.

There are two types of modified comparative fault rules. The first is referred to as the 50% bar rule, which prevents the victim from receiving damages when they are more 50% at fault. It is followed by some states, including Colorado and Utah. Another variation, known as pure comparative negligence, permits victims to recover damages if they're found to be 99 percent at fault.

Statute of Limitations

In most instances, a person injured who is injured in a car crash may sue. However the lawsuits must be filed within the timeframe known as the statute of limitations or the victim's legal claim will be forfeited and barred forever.

The statute of limitations does not have anything to have anything to do with whether the defendant's insurance company will settle the case, and everything to do with the trigger event in the case-the accident or incident which caused the injury. So, knowing exactly when the clock begins to tick is vital for making sure that you are in compliance with this crucial legal requirement.

In New York, those injured in car accidents can have up to three years to bring a personal injury lawsuit. In certain cases the timeframe can be shortened. In cases where a child is involved, for example the statute is suspended until the child is legally emancipated. This can be achieved by marrying or reaching the age of 18 usually two years after the incident. There are also exceptions and experienced lawyers can advise on the specifics.
