What happens if I bear partial blame for the accident?
The law recognizes that more than one person may be to blame for a collision or other accident, but state laws regarding this reality differ widely. In California, we work under the principle of “pure comparative fault.” Comparative fault means that you can still collect damages if you were partially at fault, but that those damages will be lessened by the proportion of fault assigned to you by the court. So, if you are found to be 10 percent at fault and the court awards you $1,000,000 in damages, you will actually receive that amount minus 10 percent, or $900,000.
The word “pure” in this context means that even if you are found to bear a greater percentage of fault than the other party, you are still entitled to your proportion of assessed damages. In other words, as long as the other person is partially responsible for the harm you’ve suffered, California law allows you to collect some portion of damages.
