Motor Vehicle Litigation
A lawsuit is required when the liability is being contested. The defendant will then be given the opportunity to respond to the complaint.

Duty of Care
In a negligence lawsuit the plaintiff must demonstrate that the defendant owed them a duty to act with reasonable care. The majority of people owe this obligation to everyone else, however those who are behind the steering wheel of a motor vehicle accident law firm vehicle have a greater obligation to other people in their field of operation.

In courtrooms the standards of care are determined by comparing an individual's behavior against what a normal individual would do under similar circumstances.

Experts with a higher level of expertise of a specific area may also be held to a higher standard of care than other people in similar situations.
If a person violates their duty of care, they could cause damage to the victim as well as their property. The victim must prove that the defendant acted in breach of their obligation and caused the damage or damages they suffered. Causation is a key element of any negligence claim. It involves proving both the actual and proximate causes of the damage and injury.

For instance an individual defendant could have crossed a red light, but the action was not the primary reason for your bicycle crash. In this way, causation is frequently disputed by defendants in crash cases.
Causation
In motor vehicle accidents, the plaintiff must prove an causal link between defendant's breach and their injuries. For instance, if a plaintiff sustained a neck injury from a rear-end collision and his or her lawyer would argue that the collision was the cause of the injury. Other factors that are necessary to cause the collision, such as being in a stationary car, are not culpable, and won't affect the jury's decision to determine the fault.

However the damages must be proved to exist through extensive evidence, such as deposition testimony of the plaintiff's family members and close friends medical records, as well as other expert witness testimony.
In cases involving multiple defendants, Courts will often use rules of comparative negligence to determine the percentage of damages award should be allocated between them. The jury will determine the percentage of fault each defendant is accountable for the incident and then divide the total amount of damages awarded by the percentage. New York law however, doesn't allow this. 1602 disqualifies vehicle owners from the rule of comparative negligence in the event of injuries sustained by the drivers of trucks or cars.
