Motor Vehicle Litigation
In the majority of motor vehicle crash cases, the plaintiff's damages amount is reduced by their percentage of the fault. The jury will make this decision based on the evidence they are presented with.
To be held liable for injuries, the defendant must be negligent at the time of the incident. The amount of liability is determined by the extent to which negligence contributed to the accident.
Liability
The purpose of a claim for motor vehicle accidents is to collect damages from the party who caused the losses and injuries caused due to their negligence. A lawsuit for a car or trucking collision will require that the injured victim prove that the defendant's negligence or inactions led to a collision, and the bodily injuries that resulted.
An experienced lawyer can help you determine whether the driver who caused the accident or other defendant is liable for your losses. Most auto accidents cases rely on the plaintiff's ability to establish their defendant's liability based on the principles of tort liability that include a defendant's responsibility to the plaintiff, the defendant's violation of that duty, real and proximate causation and injuries.
Additionally, a skilled lawyer can assist in determining the liability in cases where the insured driver or motor vehicle accidents owner of the vehicle may be involved in a lawsuit, too. Most insurance policies for automobiles provide an affirmative provision of insurance to anyone operating the vehicle under the owner's permission but subject to certain restrictions. This analysis will include a review of CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit must establish damages suffered by the plaintiff. This is usually done by providing detailed documentation on out-of pocket expenses that are incurred, as well as the loss that is expected as a result of the injuries suffered. These are referred to as economic and non-economic damages.
The first is for things like medical expenses and lost income, while the latter compensates for intangibles such as pain and suffering. Sometimes, it is difficult to determine an exact amount to non-economic damages like mental stress and loss of enjoyment of life.
Your attorney will help to calculate the damages you have suffered using a variety of methods. This could include retaining experts in accident reconstruction who will examine police reports, photos, witnesses' testimony, and other evidence in order to reconstruct the accident.
Your attorney will also support your claim by soliciting expert opinions which outline the economic and noneconomic implications of your injuries. This includes estimates of the future costs of care and support costs, wage projections and other financial aspects. These are necessary in order to ensure that you're fully compensated for the losses you've incurred and experience in the future.
Comparative Fault
In a car accident, a system known as comparative blame (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of fault that the injured party is accountable for. It's a key issue in a lot of cases and something that your attorney might have to prove.
The majority of states have some kind of a comparative fault law that allows victims to receive compensation regardless of their share of blame is an accident. The amount of compensation will be based on their level of blame. If, for instance, an award of $100,000 is made by a jury for your injuries, and then determines that you are at least 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.
However, the law is much more complex than that as there are two distinct forms of modified comparative fault rules. The first is the 50% bar rule. This rule prevents an injured party from receiving compensation if they are at fault for more than 50 percent. It is followed by some states, including Colorado and Utah. Another variation is known as pure comparative fault, which permits victims to recover damages even if found to be at fault.
Statute of limitations
In most cases, a person is injured in a car accident is eligible to file a claim against the party who caused the accident. However, these lawsuits must, be filed within the prescribed time of limitations or else the claim of the victim will be barred forever.
The statute of limitations does not have anything to do with whether or not an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It's all about the initial event that initiated the case, whether it was an incident or accident which caused the injury. Therefore, calculating exactly when the clock will begin to tick is essential for making sure that you are in compliance with this crucial legal rule.
In New York, people who suffer injuries in car crashes generally have three years to make personal injury lawsuits. In some cases this time frame can be shortened. In the event that a child is involved, such as the statute is put on hold until the child becomes liberated, which is achieved by marriage or at the age of 18 typically two years after the accident. There are other circumstances, and a seasoned lawyer can advise on the particulars.
