Comparative Fault
In the event of a car crash, the system known as comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of fault an injured party is responsible for. It's a crucial issue in a lot of cases and something that your attorney might need to prove.
Most states adopt some version of a a comparative blame rule, which permits victims to seek compensation even if they have a share of the blame in an accident. The amount of compensation will be determined by their level of responsibility. For example, if a jury decides to award you $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you're 40% in the wrong, you'd receive only $60,000.
However, the law is much more complicated than that, since there are two distinct forms of modified rules of comparative fault. The first is the 50% bar rule. This rules out the injured party from receiving compensation if they are at fault for more than 50%. It is used by certain states, such as Colorado and Utah. Another variant is pure comparative fault, which allows victims to recover damages even if they are found to be 99 percent at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In most instances, a person injured in a car accident can sue. However, these lawsuits must be filed within a certain time period, referred to as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim will be barred and forfeited for ever.
The statute of limitations does not have anything to do with whether or not the insurance company of the defendant will settle, and everything to do with the initial triggering event in the case-the accident or incident that led to the injury. Therefore, knowing exactly when the clock starts to run is crucial in to ensure compliance with this important legal rule.
In New York, those injured in car accidents have up-to three years to make a personal injury claim. In certain cases the timeline may be shortened. For example, in cases where a minor is involved the limitation period is paused until the child becomes emancipated by getting married or reaching age 18, which is typically two years after the incident. There are exceptions to this and experienced attorneys can provide advice on the specifics.
