thornton motor Vehicle accident law firm Vehicle Litigation

When a claim for liability is litigated then it is necessary to make a complaint. The Defendant has the right to respond to the Complaint.

New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that should a jury find that you were at fault for an accident the amount of damages you will be reduced according to your percentage of fault. This rule does not apply to the owners of vehicles that are that are leased or rented to minors.

Duty of Care

In a negligence case the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant owed them a duty to act with reasonable care. Nearly everyone owes this obligation to everyone else, but individuals who get behind the steering wheel of a motor vehicle have a higher obligation to other people in their field of operation. This includes ensuring that they do not cause car accidents.

In courtrooms, the standards of care are determined by comparing an individual's actions to what a normal person would do in the same circumstances. This is why expert witnesses are often required in cases involving medical malpractice. Experts with more experience in the field could be held to a greater standard of medical care.

A breach of a person's duty of care may cause harm to the victim or their property. The victim has to demonstrate that the defendant's violation of their duty led to the injury and damages that they suffered. Causation is an essential element of any negligence claim. It requires proof of both the proximate and actual causes of the damages and injuries.

For example, if someone is stopped at a red light, it's likely that they'll be hit by a car. If their vehicle is damaged, they will need to pay for repairs. The real cause of a crash could be a brick cut that causes an infection.

Breach of Duty

A breach of duty by the defendant is the second element of negligence that needs to be proved in order to receive compensation in a personal injury lawsuit. A breach of duty is when the actions taken by the at-fault party are not in line with what a normal person would do under similar circumstances.

A doctor, for instance has a variety of professional obligations towards his patients, which stem from laws of the state and licensing bodies. Drivers are bound to be considerate of other drivers as well as pedestrians, and to adhere to traffic laws. If a motorist violates this duty of care and results in an accident, the driver is liable for the injuries sustained by the victim.

A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of the duty of care and then demonstrate that the defendant did not satisfy the standard through his actions. The jury will decide if the defendant fulfilled or did not meet the standard.

The plaintiff must also establish that the defendant's breach of duty was the primary cause for the injuries. It is more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. For instance it is possible that a defendant been a motorist who ran a red light, but his or her action wasn't the proximate cause of your bike crash. Causation is often contested in crash cases by defendants.

Causation

In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff must prove a causal link between defendant's breach and Vimeo their injuries. For instance, if the plaintiff sustained an injury to his neck in an accident that involved rear-ends and his or her lawyer could claim that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that are needed to produce the collision, such as being in a stationary vehicle are not culpable and do not affect the jury's determination of the liability.

It could be more difficult to establish a causal link between a negligent action and the plaintiff's psychological symptoms. The fact that the plaintiff had a troubled childhood, poor relationship with their parents, used alcohol and drugs, or suffered previous unemployment may have some impact on the severity of the psychological issues he or suffers from following a crash, but the courts typically consider these factors as an element of the background conditions that caused the accident in which the plaintiff occurred, rather than as an independent reason for the injuries.

It is imperative to consult an experienced attorney if you have been involved in a serious motor vehicle accident. The lawyers at Arnold & Clifford, LLP, have extensive experience in representing clients in personal injury commercial and business litigation, and motor vehicle accident lawsuit vehicle crash cases. Our lawyers have developed working relationships with independent doctors across a variety of specialties and expert witnesses in accident reconstruction and computer simulations, and with private investigators.

Damages

The damages plaintiffs can seek in motor vehicle litigation include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages encompasses the costs of monetary value that can be easily added together and calculated as a total, such as medical expenses, lost wages, repairs to property, or even a future financial loss, for instance the loss of earning capacity.

New York law also recognizes the right to seek non-economic damages, such as suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of life which cannot be reduced to a dollar amount. These damages must be proved by a wide array of evidence, including depositions of family members or friends of the plaintiff or medical records, or other expert witness testimony.

In cases that involve multiple defendants, Courts will often use the rules of comparative negligence to determine the percentage of damages award should be allocated between them. The jury must determine how much fault each defendant incurred in the incident and then divide the total damages award by the percentage of the fault. New York law however, doesn't allow this. 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule in relation to injuries suffered by driver of those cars and trucks. The resulting analysis of whether the presumption of permissive use is applicable is a bit nebulous and typically only a convincing evidence that the owner was explicitly did not have permission to operate his car will overcome it.
