These are referred to as non-economic and economic damages.

Comparative Fault
In a car wreck, the concept of comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of blame the injured party is accountable for. It's an important issue in a lot of cases and something your lawyer may be required to prove.
Most states implement some kind of a comparative fault rule that allows victims to seek compensation even if share in the blame for an accident. However, the amount they receive in settlement will be reduced based on their level of blame. For instance, if a jury gives you $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you're 40% at fault, you'd be awarded only $60,000.
But the law is more complex than that since there are two distinct forms of modified comparative fault rules. The first is the 50% bar rule. This rule prevents an injured person from receiving compensation if they are at fault for more than 50 percent. It is used by a few states, including Colorado and Utah. Another variation, known as pure comparative negligence, allows victims to recover damages if they're found to be 99 per cent at fault.
Statute of limitations
In the majority of cases, a person is injured in a car crash is entitled to file a lawsuit against the party responsible for the accident. These lawsuits must, however, be filed within the statute of limitations, or else the claim of the victim is forever barred.
The statute of limitations does not affect whether or whether an insurance company for the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the first incident that brought about the case, the incident or accident that caused the injury. Knowing the exact moment at which the clock begins to tick is vital for the compliance of this crucial rule.

For instance, in cases where minors are involved, the time limit for a lawsuit is suspended until the child is legally emancipated after marriage or reaching age 18, which is usually two years after the incident. There are exceptions to this, and experienced attorneys can assist with the specifics.
