California’s Comparative Negligence Rule

Every state has different laws regarding negligence and liability in auto accidents. California follows what is known as the rule of comparative negligence. Under this rule, anyone injured in a car accident can recover compensation for their damages, even if they were partly at fault for the incident. However, the amount you are entitled to recover will be reduced by the percentage for which you are found at fault. This percentage is determined by a judge or jury, that is, if your case makes it to trial. Insurance adjusters will often keep the comparative negligence rule in mind when determining a settlement offer.

For example, if you are hit by a another driver who ran a stop sign, but you were driving a bit faster than the posted speed limit at the time of the accident, you may be found to be 10% at fault for the accident. If you suffer damages that amount to $20,000, you will only be able to recover $18,000. This is the full amount, minus the 10% (or $2,000) for which you were at fault.

Common Causes of Car Accidents

Los Angeles drivers are no strangers to car accidents. Most Angelinos spend a considerable amount of time in their cars, commuting to work or school or simply traveling or going to different areas and neighborhoods. That being said, car accidents are nearly always frightening experiences, no matter how common they may be.

These accidents occur for all types of reasons. Some of the most common include:

  • Speeding
  • Drunk driving
  • Distracted driving (including cell phone use)
  • Failure to yield the right-of-way
  • Inexperienced drivers
  • Fatigued driving
  • Failure to stop at red lights/stop signs
  • Following too closely (tailgating)
  • Driving the wrong way on one-way streets
  • Unsafe turns/lane changes
  • Poor weather conditions
  • Unsafe/defective road design/construction
  • Auto product defects

Regardless of the reason for your accident, Selarz Law Corp. can help you determine if you are entitled to compensation and, if so, can help you fight for the maximum compensation you are owed. Our Los Angeles car accident lawyers are committed to helping you seek fair compensation for your medical bills, lost wages/income, pain and suffering, disability, property damage, and more.
