How Does Colorado’s Comparative Negligence Law Work?

Comparative negligence law in Colorado will help to limit the amount that you are able to recover for your injuries as a result of an accident. What that means is if a jury is to determine what the cause of your accident is and the jury determines that you are 20% at fault for causing your own injuries, then the amount of money.

That you’re able to receive will be reduced by 20% or whatever percentage the jury might attribute to your actions that helped cause the accident.

If you’ve been in an accident where you may be partially at fault, it’s important to talk to an attorney to determine what that might mean ultimately for your recovery and your justice.
