Comparative Fault
In a car wreck, a system known as comparative blame (or contributory negligence) determines the amount of blame the person who was injured is accountable for. This is a major issue in a variety of cases and something your attorney may have to prove.
Most states implement some form of a comparative fault rule that allows victims to pursue compensation even if they have a share of the blame in an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be lowered by their level of fault. If, for instance, the jury awards $100,000 for your injuries, and then determines that you are 40% responsible, you will only receive $60,000.
There are actually two different kinds of modified comparative-fault rules. The one is known as the 50 bar rule, which prevents the victim from receiving damages when they are more 50% at the fault.

Statute of Limitations
In most instances, a person injured in a car accident can bring a lawsuit. However they must be filed within a specific time period, referred to as the statute of limitations, or the victim's legal claim is forfeited and barred for ever.
The statute of limitation is not a factor in whether or whether an insurance company representing the defendant will settle the case. It is all about the first incident that led to the case, the incident or accident that caused the injury. Therefore, knowing exactly when the clock starts to run is crucial in ensuring compliance with this important legal rule.
