Most automobile insurance policies contain an affirmative provision of coverage for anyone who is operating the vehicle with owner's permission subject to certain exclusions. This usually involves analyzing CPLR SS 1602.
Damages
A successful motor vehicle lawsuit can establish the damages incurred by the plaintiff. This is usually accomplished by providing detailed documentation of the out-of-pocket expenses that were incurred as well as future losses that are likely to arise from the injuries that were sustained. These are known as economic and non-economic damages.

Comparative Fault
A system known as comparative fault - or contributory negligence, determines the amount of fault an injured person could be held responsible for in a car accident. It's a crucial issue in a number of cases, and one that your attorney could have to prove.
Most states use some type of a comparative fault rule that allows victims to pursue compensation even if they are a part of the blame for an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be reduced based on their level of fault. If, for instance, an award of $100,000 is made by a jury for your injuries, but decides that you're 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.
However, the law is more complex than that, because there are two distinct types of modified comparative fault rules. The first is the 50% bar rule. This bar rule blocks an injured party from receiving compensation if they're responsible for more than 50%. Colorado and Utah are two states that follow this rule. Another variant, referred to as pure comparative negligence, allows victims to claim damages if they're found to be 99 percent at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In the majority of cases, a person is injured in a car accident is entitled to file a lawsuit against the person who caused the accident. However these lawsuits must be filed within a specific timeframe known as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim is deemed to be void and barred for ever.
The statute of limitations is not a factor in whether or the insurance company of the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the incident that brought about the case, or the incident or accident that caused the injury. The exact time at which the clock begins to tick is crucial for compliance with this important rule.
In New York, those injured in car accidents are allowed up to three years to start a personal injury lawsuit. In certain cases the timeline may be shortened. For instance, in cases where a minor is involved, the statute of limitations is paused until the child is legally emancipated after marriage or turning 18 which is usually two years after the accident. There are other exceptions, and a knowledgeable lawyer can advise on the specifics.
