How Much Is My Car Accident Case Worth?

There are many factors that go into determining the value of a car accident case, but these are the most important:

●       Percentage of Liability;

●       Extent of Damages and

●       Proof of Causation.

The threshold issue in any car accident case is the percentage of liability. This simply means that there must be a driver that has at least 1% responsibility for accident, but as a practical matter you would need a greater percentage of liability than this to merit making a claim. For example, if you’re sitting at a light and are hit in the rear, the driver that hits you is close to 100% liable. Intersection accidents are not so clear because even if you were hit by a car that went through a stop sign, you can still be partially responsible for the accident. The extent of damages is based on how seriously injured you were which is proven with your medical reports and testimony from you physician. It’s also necessary to prove that your injuries were a result of the car accident and weren’t pre-existing or caused by something that happened later. Many claims are also limited by the amount of applicable insurance, so it’s important to work with a Queens, Manhattan, Bronx, Staten Island and Brooklyn car accident attorney that knows how to find deep pockets.
