Contributory Negligence in Alabama
One of the reasons Alabama attorneys will advise someone to retain their services is because Alabama follows a strict form of accident guilt determination called Contributory Negligence. Under this system, if a driver is found even slightly at fault, then the court is bound by law to not compensate them for an accident. Meaning, if one driver is 99% at fault and the other driver 1% at fault, then the driver with 1% fault will receive no money damage compensation.
In Alabama you can receive compensation for both economic and non-economic damages.
Economic damages can include the financial losses incurred. This means car repairs, lost wages, medical bills, and any future bills as a result of the accident.
Non-economic damages come from things that cannot be strictly determined through financial value. These are things like emotional and mental distress and suffering.
