Question: Can I recover money if the insurance company says I was partly at fault?
Answer: Possibly, because an insurance company’s claim that you were partly at fault is not the same as proof.
Complete Explanation:
Insurance adjusters often raise contributory negligence to reduce or deny claims. Their opinion is not final. The real question is whether evidence proves you were negligent and whether that negligence contributed to the crash or injury. Photos, witnesses, crash data, video, police findings, traffic laws, vehicle damage, and expert analysis may defeat the argument. Do not accept blame simply because an adjuster says you were partly at fault.
