Can I pursue a personal injury claim if I was partially at fault?

Video Transcript

You can pursue a personal injury claim if you are partially at fault. Just because somebody, like an insurance company, says that you are partially at fault does not necessarily mean that’s what caused the wreck, or that’s what caused your injuries. That’s why it’s important to get with an attorney, so that they can flesh out whether or not you did actually contribute to your accident or your injuries.

I can’t tell you how many time’s we’ve had clients come in and say “Well, the insurance company says it was partially my fault, therefore, under Alabama law, you can’t recover.” Then we turn right back around and prove that everything they said was just not true when it came to who caused the wreck. And so, we were able to get those folks settlements. We do it all the time.
