A system known as comparative fault - also known as contributory negligence - determines how much fault an injured party can be accountable for in a car accident. In many cases, it's an important issue that your lawyer will have to prove.

The majority of states have some type of a comparative fault rule, which permits victims to seek compensation even if share the blame for an accident.
