If you are partially at fault for your injury, Illinois has what’s called a comparative fault system of negligence which dictates how the responsibility for an accident will be shared between the parties directly involved in an accident where bodily injury or damages were suffered. To be more specific, Illinois has adopted modified comparative negligence, which means as long as the injured person’s fault is less than 50%, he or she still has the opportunity to recover damages.
A person can still be compensated for their injuries even if they were partially at fault.
