Modified comparative fault in Maine is a law that states your compensation may be reduced if you’re found partially responsible for the accident. If you are, for example, 10% responsible and are owed a settlement of $100,000, you will only receive $90,000.
If you are at least 50% responsible, you can’t receive any compensation. That’s why it’s important to have an experienced attorney, like our attorneys at Lowry & Associates, who understand Maine motorcycle accident law in your corner.
