In California, accidents involving multiple at-fault parties are handled under the state’s “pure comparative negligence” system. This means that each party involved in the accident can be assigned a percentage of fault, and their compensation is adjusted accordingly. Even if you are partially at fault, you can still recover damages, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found to be 30% at fault, you can still recover 70% of the total damages. It’s crucial to gather evidence and work with legal professionals to ensure a fair assessment of fault and maximize your compensation.
