If the court finds that you were 40% negligent, and the other party was 60% negligent, then the defendant would be liable for 60% of your damages. Thus, if the total amount of your damages was $100,000, then the defendant would be liable for $60,000 of your damages.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","faq-category":[675],"class_list":["post-4842","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq-category-car-accidents"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.petrilloandgoldberg.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq\/4842","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.petrilloandgoldberg.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.petrilloandgoldberg.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/faq"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.petrilloandgoldberg.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4842"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"faq-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.petrilloandgoldberg.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/faq-category?post=4842"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
