What Is Comparative Negligence Law in New York?

In New York, we have a law that’s called pure comparative negligence, which means that if you’re injured due to the negligence of somebody else, but you were partially responsible or partially at fault, it doesn’t mean you can’t bring a claim. It doesn’t mean you can’t get compensation, but it means the amount of compensation that you can get will be lowered by your percentage at fault. So, for instance, if your personal injury case is deemed to be worth $100,000, but you were found to be 10% at fault, that would mean that you can only recover 90% of that 100,000 or $90,000.
