A lawsuit is necessary when liability is contested. The defendant has the right to respond to the Complaint.

New York follows pure comparative fault rules, which means that should a jury find you to be the cause of the accident the amount of damages awarded will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. There is a slight exception to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes owners of vehicles rented or leased by minors.

Duty of Care

In a negligence case the plaintiff has to prove that the defendant was obligated to exercise reasonable care. Nearly everyone owes this obligation to everyone else, however those who sit behind the car have a greater obligation to others in their area of activity. This includes ensuring that there are no accidents in motor vehicles.

In courtrooms the standard of care is determined by comparing an individual's conduct against what a normal individual would do in the same situations. In cases of medical malpractice expert witnesses are typically required. Experts who have a greater understanding of particular fields may be held to a greater standard of treatment.

A person's breach of their duty of care can cause harm to a victim or their property. The victim has to demonstrate that the defendant did not fulfill their duty and caused the harm or damage they sustained. Causation proof is a crucial element in any negligence case which involves investigating both the primary reason for the injury or damages as well as the cause of the injury or damage.

If a person is stopped at a stop sign then they are more likely to be struck by another vehicle. If their car is damaged, they will be required to pay for repairs. However, the real cause of the crash could be a cut or the brick, which then develops into a serious infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty committed by an individual defendant. This must be proved in order to be awarded compensation in a personal injury case. A breach of duty is when the actions taken by the at-fault person are insufficient to what an ordinary person would do in similar circumstances.

For instance, a doctor has a variety of professional obligations to his patients, arising from the law of the state and licensing boards. Drivers are required to be considerate of other drivers as well as pedestrians, and to follow traffic laws. When a driver breaches this obligation of care and causes an accident, he 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 prove that the defendant failed to meet the standard in his actions. The jury will determine if the defendant met or did not meet the standard.

The plaintiff must also prove that the defendant's breach was the direct cause of the plaintiff's injuries. It can be more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. A defendant might have walked through a red light but that's not what caused your bicycle accident. Because of this, causation is frequently disputed by the defendants in case of a crash.

Causation

In motor vehicle-related cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal link between the breach by the defendant and their injuries. If the plaintiff sustained neck injuries as a result of a rear-end collision then his or her attorney would argue that the accident caused the injury. Other elements that are required to produce the collision, such as being in a stationary vehicle are not considered to be culpable and therefore do not affect the jury's determination of the liability.

For psychological injuries, however, the link between an act of negligence and an affected plaintiff's symptoms can be more difficult to establish. The fact that the plaintiff had an uneasy childhood, a bad relationship with his or her parents, was a user of alcohol and drugs or prior unemployment could have a bearing on the severity of the psychological issues he or suffers following an accident, however, the courts typically consider these factors as part of the background circumstances that caused the accident occurred, rather than as an independent cause of the injuries.

If you have been in a serious motor vehicle crash it is crucial to consult with an experienced attorney. The attorneys at Arnold & Clifford, LLP, have extensive experience in representing clients in personal injury commercial and business litigation, as well as motor vehicle accident cases. Our lawyers have established working relationships with independent doctors in a variety of specialties, as well experts in computer simulations and reconstruction of accidents.

Damages

The damages that a plaintiff can recover in motor motor vehicle accident vehicle litigation include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages covers any monetary costs that can be easily added up and calculated as an amount, like medical expenses, lost wages, property repairs, and even future financial losses, like a decrease in earning capacity.

New York law also recognizes the right to seek non-economic damages, such as the suffering of others and the loss of enjoyment of life, which cannot be reduced to a monetary amount. However these damages must be proven to exist through extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony of the plaintiff's close friends and family members, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.

In cases where there are multiple defendants, courts will typically apply the rules of comparative fault to determine the amount of total damages to be split between them. The jury has to determine the amount of fault each defendant is responsible for the accident and then divide the total damages awarded by the same percentage. New York law however, does not permit this. 1602 does not exempt vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in the event of injuries suffered by drivers of cars or trucks. The process of determining whether the presumption is permissive is complex. The majority of the time it is only a clear evidence that the owner did not grant permission for the driver to operate the vehicle will be sufficient to overturn the presumption.
