Motor Vehicle Litigation
In most motor vehicle accident cases, the plaintiff's amount is reduced by their percentage of fault. This is decided by the jury based on evidence presented to them.
To be held liable for injuries, the defendant must be negligent at the time of the incident. Liability is determined by the extent of negligence that led to the accident.
Liability
The purpose of a motor vehicle accident claim is to obtain compensation from the other party in exchange for losses and injuries caused through their negligence. Unless the injured person lives in one of the states that operate under a no-fault system of insurance for trucking or automobile accidents, an accident lawsuit must demonstrate that the defendant's negligent actions or inaction resulted in a collision and injuries to the body.
An experienced attorney can help you determine whether the at-fault driver or other defendant is liable for your losses. The majority of auto accident cases rest on the plaintiff's ability prove the defendant's fault by relying on tort liability rules. This includes a defendant's duty to the victim, defendant's failure to fulfill this duty, direct and immediate causation as well as injuries.
A knowledgeable lawyer can assist you in determining the liability in cases where the insured driver or the owner of the vehicle might be the subject of a lawsuit as well. The majority of automobile insurance policies include an affirmative coverage for anyone who is driving the vehicle with owner's permission, subject to certain exclusions. This usually involves analyzing CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit will establish the damages incurred by the plaintiff. This is typically done by providing detailed documentation of expenses out of pocket as well as the potential for future losses to arise from the injuries that were sustained. These are known as economic and non-economic damages.
The former covers things such as medical bills and lost income, while the latter covers things that are more intangible like pain and suffering. Sometimes, it is difficult to determine an exact dollar value to non-economic damages like mental stress and loss of enjoyment of life.
Your attorney will help to calculate the damages you have suffered with a variety of methods. This includes hiring experts in accident reconstruction who will review photographs of the scene, police reports, witness testimony and other evidence to determine the way in which the accident took place.
Your attorney will also help to support your claim with expert opinions that outline the economic and non-economic impacts of your injuries. This includes cost estimates for future care and support, wage projections, and other financial aspects. These are essential in order to ensure you're fully compensated for any loss you've suffered and will continue to suffer in the future.
Comparative Fault
In the event of a car crash, the system known as comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of blame the person who was injured is accountable for. In many cases, it's an important issue that your lawyer will need to prove.
The majority of states have some kind of comparative fault rule that allows victims to be compensated even if their share of the blame is attributed to an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be reduced according to their level of blame. So, for example when a jury gives you $100,000 for your injuries but finds you are 40% at fault, you would receive only $60,000.
There are actually two different kinds of modified comparative-fault rules. The first is referred to as the 50% bar rule, which prohibits an injured party from receiving damages in cases where they are more than 50% at the fault. It is a rule that is followed by a few states, including Colorado and Utah. The other variant is called pure comparative fault, which permits victims to recover damages even if they are found to be 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 party who caused the accident. However, these lawsuits must be filed within the timeframe of limitations or else the claim of the victim will be forever barred.
The statute of limitations is not a factor in whether or not an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It's all about the incident that brought about the case, the incident or accident that caused the injury. Therefore, calculating exactly when the clock will begin to run is crucial in the proper application of this important legal requirement.
In New York, those injured in car accidents can have up to three years to make a personal injury claim. In certain cases this time frame can be reduced. For example, in cases where minors are involved the statute of limitations is paused until the child becomes legally emancipated after marriage or reaching age 18, which is typically two years after the accident. There are also exceptions, and experienced attorneys can help you understand the particulars.
