Can I still file a claim if I was partially at fault for the accident?
November 6, 2024 – Sean Shamsi
You can still file a claim even if you were partially at fault for the accident. Under California’s comparative negligence system, your compensation will be adjusted based on your level of fault. It’s important to discuss your case with a personal injury lawyer to understand how fault may impact your claim.
