Motor Vehicle Litigation

If liability is contested then it is necessary to bring a lawsuit. The defendant will then have the chance to respond to the complaint.

New York follows pure comparative fault rules, which means that in the event that a jury finds you responsible for the accident the damages awarded to you will be reduced by the percentage of negligence. There is one exception 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 negligence suit the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant was obligated to exercise reasonable care. This duty is owed to all people, however those who operate a vehicle have an even higher duty to others in their field. This includes ensuring that they don't cause motor vehicle accidents.

Courtrooms assess an individual's actions to what a typical person would do under similar circumstances to determine reasonable standards of care. In the event of medical negligence experts are often required. People who have superior knowledge in a specific field could be held to the highest standards of care than others in similar situations.

A breach of a person's duty of care can cause harm to the victim or their property. The victim has to demonstrate that the defendant's violation of their duty caused the harm and damages they suffered. Causation is a key element of any negligence claim. It involves proving the proximate and real causes of the damage and injury.

If someone is driving through the stop sign then they are more likely to be hit by a car. If their vehicle is damaged, they'll be accountable for the repairs. However, the real cause of the crash could be a cut on bricks, which later turn into a potentially dangerous infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty by an individual defendant. This must be proved in order to obtain compensation in a personal injury case. A breach of duty occurs when the actions of the person at fault are not in line with what an ordinary person would do under similar circumstances.

For instance, a doctor is required to perform a number of professional duties for his patients, arising from the law of the state and licensing boards. Motorists owe a duty care to other drivers and pedestrians on the road to drive in a safe manner and adhere to traffic laws. Any driver who fails to adhere to this obligation and causes an accident is responsible for the victim's injuries.

A lawyer may use the "reasonable individuals" standard to prove that there is a duty of care and then demonstrate that defendant did not meet this standard in his conduct. The jury will determine if the defendant met or did not meet the standards.

The plaintiff must also establish that the breach of duty of the defendant was the primary cause for his or her injuries. It is more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. For instance it is possible that a defendant been a motorist who ran a red light, but his or her action wasn't the main cause of your bike crash. Because of this, causation is often challenged by defendants in crash cases.

Causation

In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish that there is a causal connection between the breach by the defendant and their injuries. For instance, if a plaintiff suffered an injury to the neck as a result of a rear-end collision and his or her lawyer could argue that the accident caused the injury. Other factors that contributed to the collision, such as being in a stationary car, are not culpable, and won't affect the jury's decision to determine the cause of the accident.

It can be difficult to establish a causal relationship between an act of negligence and the psychological symptoms of the plaintiff. The fact that the plaintiff had troubles in his or her childhood, had a difficult relationship with their parents, was a user of alcohol and drugs or prior unemployment could have a bearing on the severity of the psychological issues suffers following a crash, but the courts typically view these elements as part of the circumstances 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 crucial to consult an experienced attorney. The attorneys at Arnold & Clifford, LLP, have extensive experience in representing clients in personal injury cases, business and commercial litigation and motor vehicle accident cases.

Damages

The damages that a plaintiff may recover in a motor vehicle case include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages includes all costs that can easily be summed up and calculated into a total, Motor Vehicle Accident for example, medical expenses and lost wages, repairs to property, and even future financial losses, such as the loss of earning capacity.

New York law recognizes that non-economic damages such as suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of life, cannot be reduced to money. However, these damages must be proved to exist using extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony from the plaintiff's family members and close friends, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.

In the event of multiple defendants, courts will typically use the comparative fault rule to determine the amount of damages to be divided between them. This requires the jury to determine the degree of fault each defendant was at fault for the accident, and then divide the total damages award by the percentage of fault. New York law however, motor vehicle accident does not allow for this. 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule in relation to injuries sustained by drivers of these vehicles and trucks. The process to determine if the presumption of permissiveness is complex. The majority of the time it is only a clear evidence that the owner did not grant permission for the driver to operate the vehicle will overrule the presumption.
