Determining fault in a motorcycle accident can be complex, and it often requires a detailed investigation. In California, fault is assessed based on comparative negligence, meaning a party can still recover damages even if they are partially at fault. The pivotal factors typically include police reports, eyewitness testimonies, and an examination of vehicle damages and accident scene evidence. An attorney from Vetchtein Law can help interpret these findings and advocate for your rightful compensation based on the determined negligence percentage.
