motor vehicle accident lawsuits Vehicle Litigation
A lawsuit is required when liability is in dispute. The defendant will then be given the chance to respond to the complaint.
New York has a pure comparative negligence rule. This means that should a jury find you to be at fault for an accident and you are found to be at fault, your damages will be reduced according to your percentage of fault. There is one exception to this rule: CPLR SS 1602 excludes owners of vehicles that are rented or leased to minors.
Duty of Care
In a case of negligence the plaintiff must prove that the defendant owed a duty of care towards them. This duty is owed by all people, however those who drive a vehicle owe an even greater duty to others in their field. This includes ensuring that they don't cause motor vehicle accidents.
Courtrooms evaluate an individual's behavior to what a typical individual would do under similar circumstances to establish what is a reasonable standard of care. In the event of medical malpractice, expert witnesses are usually required. People with superior knowledge in specific fields could be held to a higher standard of care.
A breach of a person's duty of care can cause injury to a victim or their property. The victim must prove that the defendant's breach of their duty resulted in the harm and damages they suffered. Proving causation is an essential aspect of any negligence claim which involves considering both the actual basis of the injury or damages as well as the reason for the damage or injury.
If someone runs an stop sign then they are more likely to be struck by another vehicle. If their vehicle is damaged, they'll be responsible for the repairs. The reason for a crash could be a fracture in the brick that leads to an infection.
Breach of Duty
The second element of negligence is the breach of duty committed by a defendant. This must be proven for compensation for personal injury claims. A breach of duty is when the actions of the at-fault person are not in line with what an ordinary person would do in similar circumstances.
For instance, a doctor has many professional duties towards his patients, which stem from state law and licensing bodies. Motorists owe a duty of care to other drivers and pedestrians on the road to drive safely and obey traffic laws. Drivers who violate this obligation and causes an accident is responsible for the injuries suffered by the victim.
Lawyers can use the "reasonable persons" standard to establish that there is a duty of care and then demonstrate that defendant did not comply with this standard with his actions. It is a matter of fact for the jury to decide if the defendant was in compliance with the standard or motor vehicle accidents not.
The plaintiff must also prove that the breach of duty by the defendant was the proximate cause of his or her injuries. It is more difficult to prove this than a breach of duty. For example an individual defendant could have crossed a red light, however, the act was not the sole cause of the crash. Causation is often contested in cases of crash by defendants.
Causation
In motor vehicle cases, the plaintiff must establish a causal connection between the defendant's breach of duty and his or her injuries. If a plaintiff suffered neck injuries as a result of a rear-end accident the attorney for the plaintiff will argue that the incident was the reason for the injury. Other elements that are required for the collision to occur, like being in a stationary car, are not culpable and will not affect the jury's determination of the liability.
It can be difficult to establish a causal connection between a negligent act, and the plaintiff's psychological symptoms. The fact that the plaintiff has a troubles in his or her childhood, had a difficult relationship with their parents, abused alcohol and drugs, or suffered previous unemployment may have some impact on the severity of the psychological issues he or suffers from following an accident, but courts typically look at these factors as part of the circumstances that led to the accident from which the plaintiff's injury was triggered, not as a separate reason for the injuries.

Damages
The damages a plaintiff can recover in a motor vehicle lawsuit include both economic and non-economic damages. The first category of damages covers any monetary costs that can easily be added to calculate an amount, like medical treatment and lost wages, property repair, and even future financial losses like diminished earning capacity.
New York law also recognizes the right to seek non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering as well as loss of enjoyment of life which cannot be reduced to a monetary amount. However these damages must be proven to exist through extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony from the plaintiff's close family members and friends, medical records, and other expert witness testimony.
In cases where there are multiple defendants, Courts will often use the rules of comparative negligence to determine how much of the damages awarded should be divided between them. The jury must determine the amount of fault each defendant was responsible for the incident and then divide the total damages award by that percentage of the fault. However, New York law 1602 specifically excludes owners of vehicles from the comparative fault rule in relation to injuries suffered by driver of those cars and Motor vehicle accidents trucks. The subsequent analysis of whether the presumption of permissive usage applies is not straightforward and typically only a clear proof that the owner was explicitly refused permission to operate the vehicle will be able to overcome it.
