Motor Vehicle Litigation
In the majority of motor vehicle crash cases, the plaintiff's damages award is lowered by their percentage of the fault. The jury will make this decision based on the evidence they are presented.
To be held accountable for an injury the defendant must be negligent at the time of the incident. Liability is determined by the degree of negligence that contributed to the accident.
Liability
The purpose of a claim for motor vehicle accidents is to collect damages from the other party for injuries and losses that were caused due to their negligence. A lawsuit arising out of an auto or trucking crash requires that the injured victim prove that the defendant's negligent actions or inaction caused a collision and the resulting bodily injury.
An experienced lawyer can help you determine whether the person at fault or a different defendant is accountable for your losses. The majority of auto accident cases rest on the plaintiff's ability to prove the defendant's negligence using tort liability principles. This includes a defendant’s duty to the victim, a defendant's failure to fulfill this duty, direct and real causation and injuries.
A skilled lawyer can assist in determining the liability of a situation where the insured driver or owner of the vehicle is a party in a lawsuit. The majority of automobile insurance policies provide coverage to anyone who operates the vehicle under the authority of the owner, with certain exceptions. This analysis will include a review of CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit must establish the amount of damages suffered by the plaintiff. This is typically accomplished by providing a detailed record of the out-of-pocket expenses that were incurred as well as future losses that are expected to arise from the injuries suffered. These are known as non-economic and economic damages.
The former covers things like medical bills and lost income, while the latter is a way to compensate for things that are more intangible like pain and suffering. It can be difficult to determine a specific amount to non-economic damages such as mental anxiety and loss of enjoyment life.
Your lawyer will assist to determine your damages through a variety of ways. This may include hiring accident reconstruction specialists who will analyze photos, police reports and witnesses' statements, and other evidence to reconstruct the accident.
Your lawyer will also aid your claim by seeking expert opinions on the economic and noneconomic impacts of your injuries. This will include estimates of future medical and support costs, wage projections, and other financial considerations. These are vital to ensure you are completely compensated for any losses you've suffered and continue to suffer in the future.
Comparative Fault
A system known as comparative fault - also known as contributory negligence determines the amount of fault an injured party can be held responsible for a car crash. In many instances, it's a crucial issue that your attorney will have to prove.
Most states use some type of a comparative fault rule, Motor vehicle Accident Attorneys which permits victims to seek compensation even if they have a share of the blame in an accident. The amount of compensation will be determined by the level of blame. So, for example If a jury gives you $100,000 for your injuries but finds you are 40 percent at fault, you would be awarded only $60,000.
However, the law is more complicated than that, since there are two distinct types of modified comparative fault rules. The one is known as the 50% bar rule, which prevents an injured party from claiming damages when they are more than 50 percent at the fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that follow this rule. The other variant, called pure comparative negligence, allows victims to seek damages in the event that they're found to be 99% at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In most cases, a person who is injured in a car accident is legally entitled to file a lawsuit against the party who caused the accident. However the lawsuits must be filed within a specified timeframe known as the statute of limitations or the claim of the victim is deemed to be void and barred forever.
The statute of limitations has nothing to have anything to do with whether the defendant's insurance company will settle, and everything to do with the trigger event that started the case-the accident or incident that led to the injury. Therefore, calculating exactly when the clock will begin to tick is crucial for ensuring compliance with this important legal requirement.
In New York, those injured in car accidents can have up to three years to file a personal injury lawsuit. In some instances, this timeline can be shortened. For instance, in cases where a minor is involved the statute of limitations is paused until the child is fully emancipated through marriage or reaching age 18, which is usually two years after the accident. There are exceptions to this and experienced lawyers can advise on the specifics.
