Question:

Can I still recover compensation if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Answer:

Possibly, yes. West Virginia follows a modified comparative fault rule, which means you can still recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Your compensation would be reduced by your percentage of fault. An experienced West Virginia personal injury lawyer can help evaluate your specific situation.
