How Do You Prove Liability in a UPS Accident Case?

Determining liability for the crash is a critical step toward recovering compensation. Our experienced Gillette personal injury lawyer can investigate your accident to determine fault and liability. We can gather witness statements, dashcam or surveillance camera footage, photographs, and other evidence to support your claim. We may call expert witnesses to help prove the UPS driver and the company is responsible for the collision and your injuries.

What Is Wyoming’s Modified Comparative Negligence Rule?

Like other states, Wyoming follows a modified comparative negligence rule for determining compensation for personal injury. Each party, including you, may be assigned a certain percentage of fault for the accident. The compensation you are entitled to recover may be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you.

For example, if you are awarded $300,000 for your losses but assigned 10% of the fault for the accident, your award will be reduced by 10% ($30,000) to $270,000. If you are found to be more than 50% at fault for the accident, you cannot recover any compensation. That’s why it’s essential to retain the legal counsel of a knowledgeable personal injury attorney with all the necessary tools to help you achieve the best possible outcome.
