Things aren’t always black and white. In some cases, the injured party’s actions also contributed to the cause of the accident. That doesn’t mean you lose your right to recover damages. As long as someone else’s actions also contributed to your injuries, you can file a personal injury lawsuit for damages.
Florida follows a pure comparative fault rule. That means every party involved is assigned a percentage of fault. The compensation awarded to the injured party can be reduced to account for their share of the blame.
