Even if you are partially at fault for an accident, you may be able to receive some compensation for injuries sustained in the accident.
We receive many, many cases over the course of the year where the facts of the accident suggest that both parties or multiple parties to the accident contributed to the cause of the accident. In the state of California we have what’s called comparative negligence. That basically means if someone contributed to the cause of the accident, ten percent or fifty percent or ninety percent, you are entitled to recover your damages, you’re entitled to be compensated to that degree. It’s important that if you’re involved in an accident and if you suffer any injuries at all even if the accident might have been caused partially by yourself that you call us for a free consultation so that we can analyze and evaluate your case and determine whether or not you should pursue your case.
