How Is Fault Determined In A Fort Dodge Car Accident?
Iowa uses a rule called Iowa comparative negligence, which considers the fault of all parties involved. A driver can still recover damages if they have a share of fault. However, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if the court finds you 20% responsible, your recovery goes down by 20%. If you are 51% or more at fault, you get nothing.
What Evidence Should I Collect At The Scene?
If you can, take accident scene photos. Take pictures of your injuries and the damage to all vehicles. Write down the names and contact information of all witnesses. Request the police report number. Get your medical documentation and prognosis right away. Keep all your bills and records.
When Should I Contact A Lawyer After A Crash?
The sooner you reach out, the better. The time limit for filing a claim is short. We start an investigation right away. We can prepare demand letters and policy-limit tenders on your behalf.
