Motor Vehicle Litigation
When liability is contested then it is necessary to make a complaint. The defendant has the right to respond to the complaint.
New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that in the event that a jury determines you to be at fault for an accident, your damages will be reduced according to your percentage of blame. There is a caveat to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes the owners of vehicles that are which are rented or leased by minors.
Duty of Care
In a case of negligence, the plaintiff must show that the defendant had the duty of care towards them. Almost everybody owes this duty to everyone else, but those who take the steering wheel of a motor vehicle have an even higher duty to other people in their field of operation. This includes ensuring that they don't cause motor vehicle accidents.
In courtrooms, the standards of care are determined by comparing an individual's actions against what a normal individual would do in similar circumstances. In cases of medical malpractice expert witnesses are typically required. Experts who have a greater understanding of particular fields may be held to a higher standard of care.
When someone breaches their duty of care, it may cause injury to the victim or their property. The victim is then required to prove that the defendant acted in breach of their obligation and caused the damage or damage they sustained. Proving causation is an essential element in any negligence case which involves considering both the actual causes of the injury damages as well as the proximate reason for the injury or damage.
For instance, if a person is stopped at a red light and is stopped, they'll be struck by another car. If their car is damaged they will be responsible for the repairs. But the actual cause of the crash might be a cut from a brick that later develops into a serious infection.
Breach of Duty
The second aspect of negligence is the breach of duty by a defendant. It must be proven in order to be awarded compensation in a personal injury case. A breach of duty occurs when the actions of the party at fault are not in line with what a reasonable person would do in similar circumstances.
A doctor, for example, has a number of professional obligations towards his patients that are derived from laws of the state and licensing bodies. Drivers are required to care for other drivers and pedestrians, and obey traffic laws. When a driver breaches this obligation of care and results in an accident, he is accountable for the injuries sustained by the victim.
A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable persons" standard to show that there is a duty to be cautious and then show that defendant failed to meet this standard in his actions. It is a matter of fact for the jury to decide if the defendant was in compliance with the standard or not.
The plaintiff must also prove that the breach of duty of the defendant was the primary cause for the injuries. It can be more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. A defendant could have driven through a red light but that's not the cause of the accident on your bicycle. The issue of causation is often challenged in case of a crash by the defendants.
Causation
In motor vehicle accident lawsuits vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal connection between the defendant's breach of duty and their injuries. If a plaintiff suffers neck injuries as a result of a rear-end accident then his or her attorney will argue that the crash was the cause of the injury. Other factors that are essential in causing the collision such as being in a stationary vehicle are not culpable and do not affect the jury's determination of the liability.
It is possible to establish a causal link between a negligent act, and the plaintiff's psychological symptoms. The fact that the plaintiff suffered from a an uneasy childhood, a bad relationship with his or her parents, used alcohol and drugs, or suffered prior unemployment could have a bearing on the severity of the psychological problems he or is suffering from following an accident, but courts generally view these factors as part of the context that caused the accident resulted rather than an independent reason for the injuries.
If you have been in a serious motor vehicle accident It is imperative to consult with an experienced attorney. The attorneys at Arnold & Clifford, LLP, have extensive experience in representing clients in personal injury, commercial and business litigation and motor vehicle accident cases. Our lawyers have established working relationships with independent doctors in a variety of specialties as well as expert witnesses in computer simulations and accident reconstruction.
Damages
In motor vehicle litigation, a person can seek both economic and noneconomic damages. The first category of damages covers any monetary expenses that can be easily added to calculate a sum, such as medical treatment and lost wages, property repairs, and even future financial losses, like a decrease in earning capacity.
New York law recognizes that non-economic damages such as suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of living are not able to be reduced to cash. However the damages must be proved to exist using extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony from plaintiff's family members and close friends, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.
In the event of multiple defendants, courts often use comparative fault rules to determine the amount of total damages that must be divided between them. The jury has to determine the proportion of fault each defendant has for the incident and then divide the total amount of damages awarded by the percentage. However, New York law 1602 does not exempt vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in the event of injuries caused by drivers of trucks or cars. The resulting analysis of whether the presumption of permissive usage applies is complicated and typically only a clear proof that the owner was explicitly refused permission to operate the car will overcome it.
