Motor Vehicle Litigation
In the majority of motor vehicle crash cases, the plaintiff's award is lowered by their percentage of fault. This is decided by the jury based on evidence presented to them.
To be liable for an injury the defendant must be negligent at the time of the incident. The degree of liability is determined by the extent to which negligence caused the accident.
Liability
The aim of a claim for motor vehicle accidents is to recover damages from the other party in exchange for damages and injuries caused by their negligence. Unless the victim is in one of the states that operate under a no-fault insurance program, an automobile or trucking accident lawsuit must prove that the negligence of a defendant or inaction caused a collision and the resulting bodily injury.
An experienced lawyer can assist you in determining whether the driver at fault or another defendant is responsible for your losses. Most auto accidents cases rely on the plaintiff's ability to establish the liability of their defendant based on traditional tort liability principles which include a defendant's obligation to the plaintiff, the defendant's breach of the duty, causality that is actual and proximate, and injuries.
A competent lawyer can help analyze liability in situations where the insured driver or the owner of the vehicle are involved in a lawsuit. Most automobile insurance policies grant coverage to anyone who operates the vehicle with the approval of the owner, with certain exceptions. This usually includes a look at CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit has to prove the damages suffered by a plaintiff. This is typically accomplished by providing comprehensive evidence of the expenses and the loss that is expected as a result of the injuries suffered. These are called economic and non-economic damages.
The former covers things like medical expenses and lost income while the latter is compensation for more intangible things like pain and suffering. It can be difficult to determine an amount in dollars for non-economic damages, such as mental suffering and loss of enjoyment.
Your lawyer will help you calculate your damages through a variety of ways. This includes hiring experts in reconstruction of accidents who review photos of the scene, police reports, witness testimony, and other evidence to understand how the accident occurred.
Your lawyer will also help your claim by obtaining expert opinions that outline the economic and noneconomic effects of your injuries. This includes estimates of future medical and support costs, wage projections, and other financial considerations. This is necessary in order to ensure that you're fully compensated for any losses you've suffered and will suffer in the future.
Comparative Fault
In the event of a car crash, the concept of comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the degree of fault the person who was injured is accountable for. In many instances, it's a crucial issue that your lawyer must prove.
Most states adopt some kind of a comparative fault rule, which allows victims to pursue compensation even if they have a share of the blame in an accident. However, the amount they receive in settlement will be reduced by the degree of fault. If, for instance, a jury awards $100,000 for your injuries but finds that you're at 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.
There are two kinds of modified comparative fault rules. The first is the 50% bar rule. This prevents the injured party from receiving compensation if they're at fault for more than 50%. Colorado and Utah are two states that follow this rule. The other type, known as pure comparative negligence, allows victims to recover damages if they are found to be 99% responsible.
Statute of limitations
In the majority of instances, an individual who has been injured in a car crash can make a claim. However, these lawsuits must be filed within a certain period of time, also known as the statute of limitations or the claim of the victim will be forfeited and barred for life.
The statute of limitation does not have anything to do with whether or whether an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the initial event that initiated the case, or the incident or accident which caused the injury. Calculating the exact time that the clock starts to tick is crucial to ensure respecting this important rule.
In New York, those injured in car accidents can have up to three years to start a personal injury lawsuit. This time frame may be cut down in certain circumstances, but. For instance, in situations where minors are involved, the statute of limitations is paused until the child is emancipated by getting married or reaching age 18, which is typically two years after the incident. There are other exceptions, and a knowledgeable attorney can offer advice on the particulars.
