Liability

The purpose of a claim for motor vehicle accidents is to collect damages from the other party in exchange for injuries and losses caused due to their negligence.

Most automobile insurance policies grant protection to those who operate the vehicle with the consent of the owner, with certain exceptions. This analysis also includes a look at of CPLR SS 1602.

Damages

A successful Motor Vehicle Accident Law Firm vehicle lawsuit has to prove the damages suffered by a plaintiff. This is typically accomplished by providing a detailed record of out-of-pocket expenses incurred as well as future losses that are expected to arise from the injuries sustained. These are known as economic and non-economic damages.

Comparative Fault

A system known as comparative fault or contributory negligence determines the amount of fault an injured person can be held responsible for a car crash. It's a key issue in a lot of cases and something your lawyer may be required to prove.

The majority of states have some kind of a comparative fault system that allows victims to be compensated even if a portion of blame is an accident. However, the amount of their settlement will be reduced based on their degree of fault. For instance, if an award of $100,000 is made by a jury for your injuries, and then determines that you are at least 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.

However, the law is much more complicated than that because there are two distinct varieties of modified rules of comparative fault. The first is the 50% bar rule. This prevents an injured person from receiving compensation if they're responsible for more than 50 percent. Colorado and Utah are two states that follow this rule. Another variation is known as pure comparative fault, which permits victims to seek damages even if they are found to be 99 percent at fault.

Statute of Limitations

In most instances, a person injured involved in a car accident may make a claim. However, these lawsuits must be filed within the time frame, known as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim will be barred and forfeited for life.
