motor vehicle accident lawyers Vehicle Litigation

If the liability is challenged then it is necessary to make a complaint. The defendant is entitled 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 responsible for an accident the amount of damages you will be reduced according to your percentage of fault. There is a caveat to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes the owners of vehicles that are that are rented or leased to minors.

Duty of Care

In a lawsuit for negligence the plaintiff has to prove that the defendant owed them a duty to exercise reasonable care. Nearly everyone owes this obligation to everyone else, but individuals who get behind the car are obligated to others in their area of activity. This includes ensuring that they do not cause motor vehicle accidents.

In courtrooms the standards of care are determined by comparing an individual's actions to what a normal person would do in similar situations. This is why expert witnesses are often required in cases involving medical malpractice. Experts with a superior understanding of a certain field may be held to a greater standard of care.

A person's breach of their obligation of care can cause harm to a victim or their property. The victim has to demonstrate that the defendant did not fulfill their duty and caused the harm or damages they sustained. Causation is a key element of any negligence claim. It involves proving the actual and proximate causes of the injuries and damages.

For example, if someone is stopped at a red light then it's likely that they'll be hit by a car. If their car is damaged they'll be accountable for repairs. The real cause of an accident could be a brick cut which develops into an infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty by a defendant. This must be proved in order to obtain compensation for personal injury claims. A breach of duty happens when the at-fault party's actions are not in line with what an average person would do in similar circumstances.

For instance, a doctor is a professional with a range of professional obligations towards his patients. These professional obligations stem from the law of the state and licensing authorities. Motorists have a duty of care to other motorists and pedestrians to drive safely and observe traffic laws. If a motorist violates this duty of care and creates an accident, he is responsible for the victim's injuries.

A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable person" standard to prove the existence of an obligation of care. The lawyer must then prove that the defendant failed to meet the standard in his actions. The jury will decide if the defendant complied with or did not meet the standards.

The plaintiff must also establish that the defendant's breach of duty was the primary cause of the 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's not what caused your bicycle accident. Causation is often contested in cases of crash by defendants.

Causation

In motor vehicle cases the plaintiff must establish a causal link between breach of the defendant and their injuries. For instance, if a plaintiff sustained an injury to the neck as a result of an accident that involved rear-ends and his or her lawyer would claim that the collision caused the injury. Other elements that could have caused the collision, like being in a stationary vehicle are not culpable and will not impact the jury's determination of the cause of the accident.

For psychological injuries However, the connection between a negligent act and the injured plaintiff's symptoms may be more difficult to establish. The fact that the plaintiff has a an unhappy childhood, a poor relationship with his or her parents, experimented with alcohol and drugs or had previous unemployment may have some influence on the severity of the psychological problems he or suffers from following an accident, however, the courts generally view these factors as part of the circumstances that caused the accident in which the plaintiff was triggered, not as a separate cause of the injuries.

It is imperative to consult an experienced lawyer should you be involved in a serious car accident.

Damages

In motor vehicle litigation, a person can be able to recover both economic and noneconomic damages. The first category of damages comprises any financial costs that are easily added to calculate a total, for example, medical expenses loss of wages, property repair, and even future financial losses such as diminished earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages, such as suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment are not able to be reduced to cash. However the damages must be established to exist through extensive evidence, including deposition testimony from plaintiff's close friends and family members, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.

In cases that involve multiple defendants, Courts will often use the concept of comparative negligence to decide how much of the damages awarded should be divided between them. This requires the jury to determine the amount of fault each defendant was at fault for the accident and then divide the total damages awarded by that percentage of blame. New York law however, does not permit this. 1602 specifically exempts owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule when it comes to injuries sustained by the driver of those cars and trucks. The resulting analysis of whether the presumption of permissive usage is applicable is a bit nebulous, and typically only a clear showing that the owner was explicitly refused permission to operate the vehicle will overcome it.
