What is Comparative Negligence in a Personal Injury Claim?

It is not always clear which party is responsible for an accident. In many cases, more than one person could have played a role. When this occurs, the courts in Sandusky utilize modified comparative negligence to determine fault.

At a trial, the jury reviews the evidence before determining the at-fault party. In each case, they assign a percentage of fault to each party, including the plaintiff. If a claimant is 50 percent or less at fault for their injuries they may still receive some compensation. If someone has a higher percentage of liability, the court may bar them from collecting damages.

While a plaintiff in a personal injury lawsuit could recover compensation as long as they are below the 50 percent threshold, their degree of fault could still impact their recovery. After the jury determines the plaintiff’s degree of fault, they reduce the damage award by the plaintiff’s percentage of fault. For example, a plaintiff that is 40 percent at fault, they would only receive 60 percent of their damages. An experienced attorney in Sandusky could review a personal injury case to determine if comparative negligence may come into play.
