Motor Vehicle Litigation

Liability
The purpose of a accident claim is to recover damages for the injuries and losses resulting from the negligence of another party.

Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit can establish the damages suffered by plaintiff.

These are known as non-economic and economic damages.

Comparative Fault
A system known as comparative fault, also referred to as contributory negligence determines the amount of fault an injured person is held responsible for in a car accident. It's an important issue in a number of cases, and something that your attorney might need to prove.
Most states adopt some form of a comparative fault rule, which permits victims to seek compensation even if they are a part of the blame for an accident. The amount of compensation will be based on the degree of fault. For instance the case where a judge awards you $100,000 for your injuries but finds you are 40% in the wrong, you'd be awarded only $60,000.
However, the law is more complex than that, since there are two distinct varieties of modified rules of comparative fault. The first is known as the 50 bar rule, which prohibits an injured party from claiming damages when they are more than 50% at the fault. This is the practice of some states, including Colorado and Utah. The other type, known as pure comparative negligence, permits victims to seek damages if they're found to be 99 per cent responsible.
Statute of Limitations
In most instances, a person injured who is injured in a car crash may sue. However these lawsuits must be filed within the timeframe known as the statute of limitations or the victim's legal claim is forfeited and barred for life.
The statute of limitations does not have anything to have anything to do with whether the defendant's insurance company will settle, and it is all about the initial triggering event in the case-the accident or incident that led to the injury. Determining the exact time the clock begins to tick is crucial to ensure respecting this important rule.

There are exceptions to this and seasoned lawyers can advise on the specifics.
