How Personal Injury Compensation Works
In the state of Georgia, we follow the rules of modified comparative negligence. These rules define how much of your compensation you can collect if any.
When you are awarded your compensation, the dollar amount you are awarded is based on your injuries and damage.
Then your roll in the accident is determined. You might think the other party was clearly in the wrong, but maybe you were speeding. Then it may be deemed you were 10% responsible for the accident, so you can only collect 90% of your settlement.
So, if you are awarded $10,000, you would only be able to collect $9,000.
If you were deemed to be mostly at fault, then you wouldn't receive any compensation at all. That's something your personal injury attorney will make sure doesn't happen to you.
