Contributory Negligence Can Be an Obstacle to Securing Compensation

There are only a handful of states that decide personal injury settlements using the idea of contributory negligence. Maryland, Virginia, and DC are all among that group. Contributory negligence is the idea that every person is responsible for his or her own safety. Victims may hold some responsibility for an accident, and if they did contribute to the accident in any way, it becomes more difficult to earn a settlement. Damages can be eliminated altogether or reduced proportionally to the victim’s degree of fault.

As with insurance companies, defendants will pursue all avenues to reduce their own blame and shift responsibility to the victim to avoid paying damages. A skilled attorney can help victims be prepared for any possible arguments of the defendant and offer the court a thorough, detailed case to support a monetary award.
