How Modified Comparative Negligence Affects Florida Car Accident Claim | Call 305-390-4259

Florida follows a modified comparative negligence system, which means your potential compensation can be reduced by your percentage of fault in the accident. For example, if you’re found 20% at fault, you can still seek 80% of your damages from the other party. However, if you are over 50% at fault for the accident, you would not be eligible to claim compensation.

Our Miami auto accident attorneys at Ward Ruddock offer free consultations to evaluate fault and the monetary value of motor vehicle accident cases. We can tell you whether you have a valid case, estimate what your case is worth, and guide your next steps to protect your claim and seek the money you need to support your recovery.
