Comparative Fault

A system called comparative fault - also known as contributory negligence, determines the amount of fault that an injured person is accountable for in a car accident. In many instances, it's a crucial aspect that your lawyer will need to prove.

The majority of states have some type of a comparative fault rule, which allows victims to claim compensation even if they have a share of the blame in an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be reduced by their level of fault. If, for instance, a jury awards $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you're at 40 percent at fault, you'll only receive $60,000.

The one is known as the 50 bar rule, which prevents an injured party from receiving damages in cases where they are more than 50% at the fault. Colorado and Utah are two states that follow this rule. Another variant is pure comparative fault, which permits victims to recover damages even if found to be 99 percent at fault.

Statute of Limitations
