What if I was partly at fault for the motorcycle accident?
November 27, 2024 – Britto & Herman Injury Lawyers
Florida follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means you can still claim damages even if you were partly at fault, but your potential compensation would be reduced by your percentage of fault. Additionally, an injured person determined to be over 50% responsible for their injuries would not be eligible for compensation in Florida.
