motor vehicle accident law firm Vehicle Litigation
If liability is contested, it becomes necessary to file a lawsuit. The defendant has the right to respond to the Complaint.
New York follows pure comparative fault rules which means that when a jury finds that you are responsible for causing the crash the damages awarded will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. This rule is not applicable to owners of vehicles which are rented out or leased to minors.
Duty of Care
In a negligence case the plaintiff must show that the defendant was obligated to exercise reasonable care. Nearly everyone owes this obligation to everyone else, however those who sit behind the car have a greater obligation to the people in their area of operation. This includes not causing motor vehicle accidents.
Courtrooms compare an individual's actions with what a normal person would do under similar circumstances to determine an acceptable standard of care. In the case of medical malpractice, expert witnesses are usually required. Experts with a higher level of expertise in a specific field could also be held to the highest standards of care than others in similar situations.
A person's breach of their duty of care can cause injury to a victim or their property. The victim is then required to show that the defendant violated their duty and caused the injury or damages they suffered. Causation is an essential element of any negligence claim. It involves proving the proximate and actual causes of the injuries and damages.
If a driver is caught running a stop sign and fails to obey the stop sign, they could be struck by another vehicle. If their vehicle is damaged, they will be responsible for the repairs. The actual cause of the crash could be a brick cut which develops into an infection.
Breach of Duty
A breach of duty by a defendant is the second factor of negligence that must be proved to obtain compensation in a personal injury suit. A breach of duty occurs when the actions of the person at fault do not match what reasonable people would do in similar circumstances.
For instance, a physician has a variety of professional obligations to his patients stemming from laws of the state and licensing boards. Motorists are required to show care to other drivers and pedestrians on the road to drive safely and observe traffic laws. If a driver violates this obligation of care and causes an accident, he is accountable for the injuries suffered by the victim.
A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable person" standard to prove the existence of a duty of care and then prove that the defendant did not meet that standard in his actions. It is a question of fact for the jury to decide if the defendant complied with the standard or not.
The plaintiff must also prove that the defendant's breach of duty was the primary cause of his or her injuries. This is sometimes more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty and breach. For example an individual defendant could have been a motorist who ran a red light, but the action wasn't the proximate cause of your bicycle crash. The issue of causation is often challenged in a crash case by defendants.
Causation
In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal connection between the defendant's breach of duty and the injuries. For instance, if a plaintiff sustained neck injuries as a result of an accident that involved rear-ends, his or her lawyer could argue that the collision caused the injury. Other factors that are essential in causing the collision such as being in a stationary vehicle, are not considered to be culpable and therefore do not affect the jury's decision of the liability.
It could be more difficult to establish a causal relationship between a negligent action and the plaintiff's psychological problems. The fact that the plaintiff has a troubles in his or her childhood, had a difficult relationship with his or her parents, abused drugs and alcohol or experienced prior unemployment could have a influence on the severity the psychological issues is suffering from following a crash, but the courts typically look at these factors as an element of the background conditions from which the plaintiff's accident resulted rather than an independent reason for the injuries.
If you have been in an accident that is serious to your vehicle it is essential to speak with a seasoned attorney. The attorneys at Arnold & Clifford, LLP, have extensive experience in representing clients in personal injury as well as commercial and business litigation and motor vehicle accident cases. Our lawyers have established relationships with independent physicians with a variety of specialties as well as expert witnesses in accidents reconstruction and computer simulations as well as with private investigators.
Damages
In motor vehicle litigation, a plaintiff could be able to recover both economic and noneconomic damages. The first type of damages includes any monetary expenses that can be easily added to calculate the sum of medical expenses or lost wages, property repairs, and even future financial losses like a diminished earning capacity.
New York law recognizes that non-economic damages such as suffering and pain, and loss of enjoyment cannot be reduced to money. However the damages must be established to exist by a variety of evidence, such as deposition testimony from the plaintiff's family members and close friends medical records, other expert witness testimony.
In cases where there are multiple defendants, Courts will often use rules of comparative negligence to determine how much of the damages award should be allocated between them. The jury must determine the amount of fault each defendant carries for the accident, and divide the total damages awarded by that percentage. New York law however, does not allow this. 1602 specifically exempts owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule in relation to injuries suffered by driver of the vehicles. The method of determining if the presumption of permissiveness is complicated. The majority of the time there is only a clear proof that the owner denied permission to the driver to operate the vehicle will overrule the presumption.
