Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit must prove the damages suffered by a plaintiff. This is usually done by providing detailed documentation on out-of pocket expenses and the loss that is expected due to the injuries suffered. These are referred to as economic or noneconomic damages.
The former is for things like medical expenses and lost income, while the latter pays for intangibles like pain and suffering. It can be difficult to quantify an amount of money on non-economic damages, such as mental suffering and loss of enjoyment in life.
Your attorney will help to determine your damages using a variety of methods. This could include hiring accident reconstruction experts who will look over police reports, photos as well as witnesses' testimony and other evidence in order to reconstruct the crash.
Your lawyer will also help your claim by obtaining expert opinions that outline the economic and noneconomic effects of your injuries.

Comparative Fault
In the event of a car crash, the concept of comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the degree of fault an injured person is responsible for. In many cases, it's an important aspect that your lawyer must prove.
The majority of states have some kind of comparative fault rule that allows victims to be compensated regardless of whether their part of the blame is attributed to an accident. The amount of the settlement will be based on their degree of fault. So, for example when a jury awards you $100,000 for your injuries but finds you are 40% at fault, you will receive only $60,000.
There are two distinct types of modified comparative fault rules. The one is known as the 50 bar rule, which prohibits the victim from receiving damages when they are more 50 percent at fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that are governed by this rule. The other variant, called pure comparative negligence, allows victims to seek damages if they are found to be 99 percent at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In most cases, an injured person in a car crash can make a claim. However, these lawsuits must be filed within a specified time period, referred to as the statute of limitations or the claim of the victim will be barred and forfeited for life.
The statute of limitation is not a factor in whether or not an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the event that triggered the case, the incident or accident which caused the injury. Therefore, calculating exactly when the clock starts to tick is vital for ensuring compliance with this important legal requirement.
In New York, people who suffer injuries in car crashes generally have three years to bring personal injury lawsuits. In certain cases the timeline may be shortened. For instance, in situations where a minor is involved, the statute of limitations is paused until the child becomes free by marrying or reaching age 18, which typically takes two years following the accident. There are other circumstances, and a seasoned attorney can offer advice on the specifics.
