Truck Accidents in Upper Darby, PA — Common Questions
How does Pennsylvania's comparative negligence rule work?
Pennsylvania uses modified comparative negligence: you can recover as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50 percent, and your award is reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
