🔍 What Is Comparative Negligence? | Personal Injury Law Explained ⚖️

Ever wonder what happens if both drivers are at fault in a car crash? That’s where comparative negligence comes in.

In this episode, we break down how the law decides who’s responsible — and how much you can still recover in damages, even if you’re partially to blame.

🚗💥 Let’s say you were 30% at fault for an accident, but the other driver was 70% responsible. Under comparative negligence laws, you could still recover 70% of your damages. But every state handles this differently — some follow pure comparative negligence, others have modified rules where you must be less than 50% or 51% at fault to recover anything.
