If you were partially responsible for the truck accident, you may still be able to recover compensation for your injuries in Florida. Under the modified comparative fault rule found in Florida Statutes § 768.81, you can still recover damages as long as you are 50% or less liable for the truck crash. However, your recovery is reduced in proportion to the percentage you are found at-fault for the accident. For example, if your damages are $1,000,000 but you are found to be 25% at-fault for the accident, your recovery is reduced to $750,000.
