Motor Vehicle Litigation
In the majority of motor vehicle collision cases, the plaintiff's award is reduced by their percentage of fault. This is decided by jurors based on evidence presented to them.
To be held responsible for a personal injury, the defendant has to have been negligent in the incident. Liability is determined by the degree to which the negligence contributed to the accident.
Liability
The objective of a claim for motor vehicle accidents is to collect damages from the party who caused the losses and injuries caused by their negligence. A lawsuit arising out of an auto or trucking crash will require that the victim's claim be proven that the defendant's negligent acts or inaction resulted in a collision and the bodily injury that resulted from it.
An experienced attorney can help you determine whether the at-fault driver or another defendant is responsible for your losses. Most auto accidents cases rely on a plaintiff's ability to demonstrate the liability of their defendant on the traditional tort liability rules, including a defendant's duty to the plaintiff, the defendant's violation of this duty, actual and proximate cause, and injuries.
A experienced lawyer can assist with determining the liability in cases where the insured driver or owner of the vehicle might be the subject of a lawsuit, too. Most automobile insurance policies grant coverage to anyone who uses the vehicle under the authority of the owner, subject to certain exceptions. This usually includes a look at CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit will prove the damages suffered by plaintiff. This is typically done by providing detailed documentation of out-of-pocket expenses incurred as well as future losses expected to arise from the injuries that were sustained. These are known as economic and non-economic damages.
The former is for things like medical expenses and lost income as well as compensation for intangibles, such as suffering and pain. It can be difficult to put a dollar amount on the non-economic damage, such as mental distress and loss of enjoyment.
Your lawyer will help to determine your damages using a variety of methods. This includes hiring accident reconstruction experts who will look at photos of the scene, police reports, witness testimony and other evidence to determine how the accident occurred.
Your lawyer will also aid your claim by getting expert opinions that detail the economic and noneconomic effects of your injuries. This will include estimates of future medical and support costs, wage projections and other financial factors. These are necessary to ensure that you are fully compensated for any losses that you have suffered and encounter in the near future.
Comparative Fault
A system known as comparative fault or contributory negligence - defines the extent to which an injured person can be held responsible for a car crash. In many instances, it's a crucial aspect that your lawyer will have to prove.
The majority of states have some kind of comparative fault rule which allows victims to receive compensation regardless of whether their part of the blame lies with an accident. The amount of the settlement will be determined by their level of responsibility. For instance, if a jury awards $100,000 for your injuries, but decides that you are at least 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.
There are two types of modified comparative-fault rules. The first is the 50% bar rule. This rules out an injured party from receiving compensation if they're at fault for more than 50%. Colorado and Utah are two states that are governed by this rule. Another variant is pure comparative fault, which permits victims to claim damages even if found to be at fault.
Statute of limitations
In most cases, a person who is injured in a car crash is allowed to file a lawsuit against the party who caused the crash. These lawsuits must, however, be filed within the statute of limitations, or else the claim of the victim is forever barred.
The statute of limitations has nothing to be concerned with whether or not the insurance company of the defendant will settle it, and has everything to do with the trigger event that started the case-the incident or accident that led to the injury. Therefore, knowing exactly when the clock starts to tick is essential for ensuring compliance with this important legal requirement.
In New York, people who are hurt in car crashes generally have three years to bring personal injury lawsuits. This timeline may be shortened in certain circumstances, however. For instance, in cases where a minor is involved the statute of limitations is paused until the child becomes emancipated by getting married or turning 18 which is typically two years after the date of the accident. There are exceptions to this, and experienced attorneys can provide advice on the specifics.
