Motor Vehicle Litigation

A lawsuit is necessary when liability is in dispute. The defendant then has the opportunity to respond to the complaint.

New York follows pure comparative fault rules, which means that in the event that a jury finds you to be at fault for causing an accident, your damages award will be reduced by your percentage of negligence. There is a slight exception 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 negligence case the plaintiff must show that the defendant was obligated to act with reasonable care. Nearly everyone owes this obligation to everyone else, however those who take the car are obligated to others in their area of activity. This includes ensuring that they don't 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 similar circumstances. In the case of medical malpractice, expert witnesses are usually required. Experts with more experience in the field could be held to a higher standard of medical care.

If someone violates their duty of care, it may cause damage to the victim as well as their property. The victim then has to prove that the defendant breached their duty of care and caused the injury or damages they sustained. Causation is a crucial element of any negligence claim. It involves proving both the proximate and real causes of the damage and injury.

If someone is driving through an intersection then they are more likely to be struck by a vehicle. If their car is damaged they'll be responsible for the repairs. But the actual cause of the accident could be a cut on bricks that later develop into a serious infection.

Breach of Duty

The second element of negligence is the breach of duty by the defendant. The breach of duty must be proved in order to receive compensation for personal injury claims. A breach of duty happens when the actions of the party at fault aren't in line with what a reasonable person would do in similar circumstances.

For instance, a doctor, has a number of professional obligations to his patients, which stem from the law of the state and Motor Vehicle accident licensing authorities. Motorists owe a duty of care to other drivers and pedestrians to drive safely and observe traffic laws. Drivers who violate this obligation and causes an accident is responsible for the injuries of the victim.

A lawyer can rely on the "reasonable persons" standard to demonstrate that there is a duty of care and then demonstrate that defendant did not comply with this standard in his conduct. The jury will decide if the defendant complied with or did not meet the standards.

The plaintiff must also prove that the defendant's negligence was the sole cause of the plaintiff's injuries. This can be more difficult to prove than the existence of a duty and breach. A defendant may have run through a red light, but that wasn't what caused your bicycle accident. The issue of causation is often challenged in case of a crash by the defendants.

Causation

In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff has to 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 the lawyer could argue that the collision was the cause of the injury. Other factors that are necessary for the collision to occur, like being in a stationary vehicle are not culpable, and do not affect the jury's determination of the liability.

For psychological injuries However, the connection between an act of negligence and an injured plaintiff's symptoms could be more difficult to establish. It may be because the plaintiff has had a difficult past, has a bad relationship with their parents, or is a user of drugs or alcohol.

If you've been involved in a serious motor vehicle accident, it is important to consult an experienced attorney.

Damages

The damages that a plaintiff may recover in motor vehicle litigation can include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages encompasses all monetary costs which can easily be added up and calculated as a total, such as medical treatments as well as lost wages, repairs to property, and even financial loss, such loss of earning capacity.

New York law also recognizes the right to seek non-economic damages like suffering and pain, as well as loss of enjoyment of life which cannot be reduced to a monetary amount. However the damages must be proved to exist with the help of extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony from plaintiff's close friends and family members medical records, other expert witness testimony.

In cases where there are multiple defendants, courts will typically use the comparative fault rule to determine the amount of total damages that must be divided between them. The jury has to determine the percentage of fault each defendant is responsible for the incident, and divide the total damages awarded by the same percentage. New York law however, does not permit this. 1602 disqualifies vehicle owners from the comparative negligence rule in the event of injuries suffered by drivers of trucks or cars. The method of determining if the presumption is permissive or not is complex. The majority of the time, only a clear demonstration that the owner was not able to grant permission for the driver to operate the vehicle will overrule the presumption.
