Oregon follows a “modified comparative negligence” rule for accidents involving multiple at-fault parties. This means that each party’s degree of fault is assessed, and compensation is adjusted accordingly. If you are found to be 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages. However, if you are 50% or less at fault, you can recover damages, but they will be reduced by your percentage of fault. It’s crucial to gather evidence and consult with a legal expert to navigate these complex cases effectively.
