Comparative Fault
A system known as comparative fault or contributory negligence, determines the extent to which an injured person can be accountable for a car crash. In many cases, it's an important aspect that your lawyer must prove.
Many states have a type of a comparative fault law that allows victims to receive compensation even if their share of the blame is for an accident. The amount of the settlement will be based on the degree of fault. If, for example an award of $100,000 is made by a jury for your injuries, but decides that you are at least 40 percent responsible, you will only receive $60,000.
However, the law is more complicated than that, as there are two distinct kinds of modified comparative fault rules. The one is known as the 50% bar rule, which bars an injured party from receiving damages when they are more than 50 percent at the fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that are governed by this rule. Another variation, known as pure comparative negligence, permits victims to seek damages in the event that they are found to be 99 percent at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In the majority of instances, the person who was injured who is injured in a car crash may sue. However these lawsuits must be filed within a specific time frame, known as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim is deemed to be void and barred forever.
The statute of limitation does not affect whether or whether an insurance company representing the defendant will settle the case. It is focused on the primary incident that brought about the case, and the incident or accident that caused the injury. So, knowing exactly when the clock starts to run is crucial in ensuring compliance with this important legal requirement.
In New York, people who are injured in car accidents generally have three years to file personal injury lawsuits. In some cases this time frame can be shortened. For instance, in cases where minors are involved, the statute of limitations is suspended until the child is fully emancipated through marriage or reaching age 18, which is usually two years after the accident. There are other exceptions and experienced attorneys can assist with the specifics.
