Can I recover even if the accident was my fault?

 

A: Whether you can recover if the accident was your fault depends on the laws of your state. Some states do not consider fault with regards to some damages, and in those states some of your economic losses may be paid by your own no-fault policy. Other states consider fault, but you may still be able to recover for your injuries, even if the accident was partially your fault. However, in that case, you may be required to prove that the other party's fault was greater than yours, or to reduce the amount of your compensation by your percentage of fault.

Testimonials

  • I recently was in a terrible car accident that impacted my health, the
    health of my passenger as well as me financially. I contacted Joseph
    Ghabour for his opinion and he was very supportive in calming my
    nerves and addressing my concerns. He literally took the problem from
    me and resolved it while allowing me to focus on the health issues we
    were facing. He gave fantastic advice along the way ensuring that I
    didn't do something that would jeapordize the outcome of the case. I
    am not a litigious person - this was my first and likely my only
    lawsuit - but I felt that with all I was facing I shouldn't have to
    bear the financial burden that was caused by someone else's
    carelessness for the law. Joe kept me informed and ensured that I
    received what I was entitled to covering my expenses and allowing me
    the ability to replace my car without additional financial burden. He
    was calm, understanding and very focused on my case throughout the
    process. I would recommend him to anyone with a legal need.
  • Mr. Ghabour has been patient and available, listening to the circumstances of my case..
