Motor Vehicle Litigation
In most motor vehicle accident cases, the plaintiff's damages award is reduced by their percentage of the fault. This is determined by the jury based on evidence presented to them.
In order to be held liable for personal injury, the defendant has to have been negligent in the incident. The degree of liability is determined by degree of negligence that contributed to the incident.
Liability
The aim of a motor vehicle accident claim is to seek compensation from the other party in exchange for injuries and losses that were caused by their negligence. If the injured party is not in one of the few states that operate under a no-fault system of insurance, an automobile or trucking accident lawsuit requires that a defendant's careless actions or failure to act resulted in a collision and injuries to the body.
An experienced lawyer can assist you in determining if the at-fault driver or other defendant is liable for your losses. The majority of auto accidents cases depend on the plaintiff's ability prove the defendant's negligence by relying on tort liability rules. This includes a defendant’s duty to the victim, the defendant’s failure to fulfill this duty, direct and immediate causation as well as injuries.
A skilled lawyer can also assist in analyzing liability in situations where the insured driver or owner of the vehicle is involved in a lawsuit. The majority of automobile insurance policies include an affirmative guarantee of protection to anyone driving the vehicle with owner's permission with certain limitations. This usually includes a look at CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit will establish the damages suffered by plaintiff. This is usually done by providing detailed documentation on out-of pocket expenses incurred, as well as the loss that is expected due to the injuries sustained. These are known as economic and non-economic damages.
The former covers things such as medical expenses and lost income. The second is compensation for more intangible issues like suffering and pain. It is difficult to put a dollar amount on non-economic losses, like mental distress and loss of enjoyment in life.
Your attorney will assist you in the calculation of your damages through the use of a variety of methodologies. This includes retaining experts in reconstruction of accidents who analyze photographs of the scene police reports, witness testimony, and other evidence to determine how the accident occurred.

This will include estimates of the cost for future care and assistance as well as wage projections and other financial aspects.

Comparative Fault
A system known as comparative fault, also referred to as contributory negligence determines the extent to which an injured person is accountable for in a car accident. In many cases, it's an important issue that your lawyer will have to prove.
Most states have a form of a comparative fault law that allows victims to be compensated even if their share of blame is an accident. The amount of the settlement will be based on the level of fault. So, for example the case where a judge gives you $100,000 for your injuries, but concludes that you're 40 percent at fault, you will receive only $60,000.
There are actually two different types of modified comparative-fault rules. The first is the 50 bar rule. This bar rule blocks the injured party from receiving compensation if they are at fault for more than 50 percent. It is used by some states, including Colorado and Utah. Another variation is known as pure comparative fault. This allows victims to seek damages even if found to be 99 % at fault.
Statute of limitations
In the majority of cases, a person is injured in a car accident is legally entitled to file a lawsuit against the person responsible for the crash. However they must be filed within a specific time frame, known as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim will be barred and Vimeo forfeited for ever.
The statute of limitations does not have anything to have anything to do with whether the insurance company of the defendant will settle, and it is all about the triggering event that initiated the case - the incident or accident which caused the injury. Knowing the exact moment at which the clock begins to run is essential for the compliance of this crucial rule.
In New York, people who are injured in car crashes generally have three years to file personal injury lawsuits. In some cases this time frame can be shortened. In the event that a child is involved, for instance the statute is suspended until the child becomes free, which is achieved by marriage or at the age of 18, typically two years after the accident. There are also exceptions and experienced lawyers can provide advice on the specifics.
