If you have been injured in an accident you may be entitled to compensation for lost wages, medical bills, pain and suffering and/or other expenses relating to the accident. Whether you can legally recover is based upon the "fault" of someone else. If another person caused the accident as a result of their carelessness, recklessness or negligence, you may have a valid claim. You will not be entitled to recover in a personal injury lawsuit simply because the accident occurred on or in someone else's property or automobile. The owner must be at "fault". However, the liability of the other person does not have to be absolute. If you believe that you may have played a factor in causing the accident, you still maybe entitled to recover for the pro rata share of the other person's "fault."
