Most states have a form of comparative fault rule that allows victims to receive compensation even if their share of the blame is for an accident. The amount of the settlement will be based on their level of responsibility. So, for example when a jury awards you $100,000 for your injuries but finds you are 40 percent in the wrong, you'd only receive $60,000.
