Motor Vehicle Litigation
In the majority of motor vehicle accident cases, the plaintiff's damages are reduced by the percentage of the fault. This is determined by the jury based on the evidence presented to them.

Comparative Fault
A system called comparative fault - also known as contributory negligence - defines the amount of fault that an injured person could be accountable for in a car accident. It's an important issue in many cases and something your lawyer may be required to prove.
The majority of states have some type of a comparative fault rule, which allows victims to pursue compensation even if they share the blame for an accident. However, the amount they receive in settlement will be reduced by their level of blame. If, for instance, a jury awards $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you are 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.
However, the law is much more complex than that, because there are two distinct types of modified comparative fault rules. The first is the 50% bar rule. This rule prevents the injured party from receiving compensation if they're at fault for more than 50%. Colorado and Utah are two states that are governed by this rule. The other type, known as pure comparative negligence, allows victims to claim damages if they are found to be 99% at fault.
Statute of limitations
In most instances, a person who is injured in a car crash is legally entitled to file a lawsuit against the person responsible for the crash. However the lawsuits must be filed within a specified timeframe known as the statute of limitations or the victim's legal claim will be forfeited and barred forever.
The statute of limitations has nothing to do with whether or not the insurer of the defendant will settle the case, and everything to do with the trigger event that started the case-the incident or accident which caused the injury. Calculating the exact time that the clock begins to run is essential for respecting this important rule.
In New York, people who are hurt in car crashes generally have three years to make personal injury lawsuits. In certain instances, this timeline can be reduced. For example, in cases where minors are involved, the time limit for a lawsuit is suspended until the child becomes free by marrying or turning 18 which typically takes two years following the accident. There are exceptions to this and seasoned lawyers can provide advice on the specifics.
