Proving Fault in a Car Accident Case
Proving fault after a car accident is essential to collecting compensation. Let's take a closer look at why having an attorney in your corner matters when trying to establish who is responsible for your losses:
Your Personal Coverage is Limited
Personal injury protection (PIP) insurance is required in New Jersey. It covers your medical expenses, loss of income, and other losses after an accident, regardless of who was at fault. But if your losses exceed the amount of coverage your policy provides, you will be left to deal with the fallout single-handedly unless you can prove that fault lies with another party. This is no easy task, especially if the other driver or other party has their own legal advocate trying to shift blame or even portray you as the at-fault party.Evidence Must Be Gathered and Presented Strategically
To establish fault in an auto accident case, the team at our Jersey City law office will review all available evidence. This includes the police report, photos and videos of the collision, and witness testimony. Collecting this evidence allows a car accident lawyer to build a compelling case and convince a jury that you deserve restitution following an auto accident. Your attorney can also involve accident reconstruction experts to further illustrate where fault lies.You Need to Know the Value of Your Claim
The insurance company is focused on its bottom line - not your losses. Meanwhile, it's important to understand that the full extent of your losses may not be immediately apparent. Your injuries could easily have lifelong ramifications that affect your ability to work or care for yourself. The trauma of the accident could require long-term mental healthcare. You may also require special modifications to your home, such as wheelchair ramps, or ongoing in-home care. An attorney can determine the true extent of your losses and the amount of compensation you will actually need in order to rebuild your life in the wake of an accident.Comparative Negligence
/
New Jersey's comparative negligence law means that multiple parties may be found partially at fault for a collision. If you were in a crash and it's proven that you and the other driver each bear partial responsibility for an accident, you will only be awarded a percentage of legal damages based on how much you were determined to be at fault, and only if you were found to be no more than 50 percent at fault. A skilled car accident lawyer can make certain that no undue blame is attributed to you.
Types of Compensation in an Auto Injury Case
Compensatory Damages
Compensatory damages cover losses associated with a car crash. This includes damage to the vehicle and other property, medical expenses, lost wages and earning potential, and your emotional pain and suffering. A personal injury lawyer can determine the full extent of these losses and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.
Punitive Damages
Punitive damages are not linked to any losses associated with a crash. Instead, punitive damages are intended to punish a party for their gross negligence. These damages are not common in car accident lawsuits, though they may be awarded in particularly egregious collisions. A car accident lawyer can help you hold the negligent party accountable.
