Comparative Negligence vs. Contributory Negligence

You could be subjected to Comparative Negligence or Contributory Negligence Laws when you're involved in an auto accident, depending on the state in which the accident takes place. Learn the difference between the two in this latest video.

I work in the Subrogation department for several insurance companies and this is the best video on negligence laws.

I had a car accident back in 2021, and in most states I'd be most confident in winning. Sounds good for me right? Well, go to 5:16, and pause it there. Yep, I'm in a goddang Contributory Negligence state, but I did do everything in my power to avoid the accident, and unfortunately I was in the hospital and physical therapy for 23 days, and have $300, 000+ medical bills! Yikes! I did my deposition in late January, and I answered everything correctly, and my attorney is still willing to represent me. Unfortunately, I feel not confident, because basically under the Contributory Negligence law, the defense attorney for the defendant can basically throw a seemingly infinite amount of darts at my dart board, and if any stick regardless of score, I get nothing. SIGH, well, my experienced attorney is who I've got, and we shall see what happens when this goes to trial later this year. Wish me luck!

Hi, what's is the difference if a car is backing up out of a driveway and already in half of the street and the other cars hits from behind with their front and side damaged. Who's fault would that be. Thank you
