Motor Vehicle Litigation

When liability is contested in court, it becomes necessary to start a lawsuit. The Defendant has the right to respond to the complaint.

New York follows pure comparative fault rules, which means that if the jury finds you to be at fault for causing the accident the damages awarded will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. This rule does not apply to owners of vehicles that are leased or rented to minors.

Duty of Care

In a negligence case, the plaintiff must show that the defendant was bound by the duty of care toward them. Most people owe this duty to everyone else, however individuals who get behind the driving wheel of a motorized vehicle have a higher obligation to the other drivers in their zone of operation. This includes ensuring that they do not cause motor vehicle accidents.

In courtrooms the standards of care are determined by comparing an individual's conduct with what a normal person would do in the same circumstances. In cases of medical malpractice expert witnesses are typically required. Experts who are knowledgeable in a particular field can also be held to the highest standards of care than other people in similar situations.

A breach of a person's obligation of care can cause harm to the victim or their property. The victim then has to prove that the defendant acted in breach of their duty and caused the injury or damage that they suffered. Proving causation is an essential part of any negligence case which involves taking into consideration both the real basis of the injury or damages and the proximate reason for the injury or damage.

If a driver is caught running a stop sign and fails to obey the stop sign, they could be hit by another vehicle. If their car is damaged, they'll be responsible for the repairs. The reason for the crash might be a cut in the brick, which then develops into a potentially dangerous infection.

Breach of Duty

A breach of duty by a defendant is the second element of negligence that needs to be proved to obtain compensation in a personal injury lawsuit. A breach of duty occurs when the actions of a party who is at fault are not in line with what an average person would do in similar circumstances.

For example, a doctor has several professional duties to his patients stemming from the law of the state and licensing boards. Motorists are required to show care to other drivers and pedestrians to drive safely and observe traffic laws. If a driver violates this duty of care and creates an accident, he is accountable for the injuries suffered by the victim.

A lawyer may use the "reasonable person" standard to establish the existence of an obligation of care. The lawyer must then prove that the defendant did not satisfy the standard through his actions. The jury will decide if the defendant complied with or did not meet the standard.

The plaintiff must also prove that the breach of duty by the defendant was the direct cause of the plaintiff's injuries. This can be more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty and breach. A defendant could have driven through a red light, but that wasn't what caused the accident on your bicycle. Causation is often contested in case of a crash by the defendants.

Causation

In motor vehicle accident law firm vehicle accidents, the plaintiff must establish a causal link between the defendant's breach and their injuries. If the plaintiff sustained an injury to the neck in an accident with rear-end damage the attorney for the plaintiff would argue that the collision caused the injury. Other factors necessary to cause the collision, like being in a stationary vehicle is not culpable and won't affect the jury's decision to determine the degree of fault.

For psychological injuries However, the connection between a negligent act and an injured plaintiff's symptoms could be more difficult to establish. The fact that the plaintiff suffered from a troubles in his or her childhood, had a difficult relationship with his or her parents, used alcohol and drugs or previous unemployment may have some impact on the severity of the psychological issues he or is suffering from following a crash, but the courts typically view these elements as part of the circumstances from which the plaintiff's accident resulted rather than an independent reason for the injuries.

If you have been in a serious motor vehicle accident it is crucial to consult an experienced attorney. The attorneys at Arnold & Clifford, LLP have years of experience representing clients in personal injury, commercial and business litigation and motor vehicle accident cases. Our lawyers have developed working relationships with independent physicians in various specialties, as well as experts in computer simulations and reconstruction of accident.

Damages

The damages that plaintiffs can seek in a motor vehicle case include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages comprises any financial costs that can be easily added up and calculated as a total, for example, medical treatment loss of wages, property repairs, and even future financial losses such as diminished earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, like pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life can't be reduced to cash. The damages must be proven by a wide array of evidence, including depositions of family members or friends of the plaintiff medical records, as well as other expert witness testimony.

In cases involving multiple defendants, Courts will often use the rules of comparative negligence to determine the proportion of damages award should be allocated between them. The jury must determine the degree of fault each defendant was at fault for the incident and then divide the total damages award by that percentage of the fault. However, New York law 1602 excludes vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in the event of injuries caused by drivers of trucks or cars. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissive use applies is not straightforward and typically only a convincing evidence that the owner was explicitly was not granted permission to operate the car will be sufficient to overcome it.
