Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit must establish the amount of damages suffered by the plaintiff. This is usually accomplished by providing detailed documents on the out-of-pocket expenses incurred, as well as future loss that will be expected as a result of the injuries suffered. These are referred to as economic and noneconomic damages.
The former covers things such as medical expenses and lost income while the latter covers more intangible issues like pain and suffering. It can be difficult to assign an exact dollar value to damages that are not economic such as mental anxiety and loss of enjoyment life.

Comparative Fault
In a car wreck, a system known as comparative blame (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of fault the injured party is accountable for. In many instances, it's a crucial issue that your attorney must prove.
Many states have a type 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 determined by their degree of fault. For instance, if a jury awards $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you're at 40 percent responsible, you'll only receive $60,000.
However, the law is more complex than that, since there are two distinct types of modified rules of comparative fault. The one is known as the 50% bar rule, which prevents the victim from claiming damages when they are more than 50% at the fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that adhere to this rule. Another variant, referred to as pure comparative negligence, permits victims to claim damages if they are found to be 99% responsible.
Statute of limitations
In the majority of instances, the person who was injured who is injured in a car crash may sue. However the lawsuits must be filed within a certain time period, referred to as the statute of limitations or the claim of the victim will be forfeited and barred forever.
The statute of limitations does not have anything to be concerned with whether or not the defendant's insurance company will settle or not, and it is all about the initial triggering event in the case, which is the incident or accident that caused the injury. So, knowing exactly when the clock begins to run is crucial in to ensure compliance with this important legal rule.
In New York, those injured in car accidents have up to three years to make a personal injury claim. In some instances this time frame can be shortened. For example, in cases where a minor is involved the statute of limitations is suspended until the child becomes free by marrying or turning 18 which is typically two years after the accident. There are also exceptions and seasoned lawyers can assist with the specifics.
