Most states implement some form of a comparative fault rule, which permits victims to seek compensation even if are a part of the blame for an accident. However, the amount of their settlement will be reduced by their level of fault. If, for instance, the jury awards $100,000 for your injuries but finds that you are at least 40 percent responsible, you'll only receive $60,000.

However, the law is much more complicated than that, because there are two distinct types of modified rules of comparative fault. The first is the 50 bar rule.

Another variant is pure comparative fault, which permits victims to recover damages even if found to be 99 percent at fault.
