How fault affects your settlement in Arizona

This state uses pure comparative negligence. Your recovery is reduced by your fault percentage, but you can recover something even if you were mostly at fault (e.g. at 90% fault you still recover 10%).

Say your total damages come to $84,000 and you were 30% at fault. Under Arizona's pure comparative negligence rule, your award is reduced by your share — so you could recover about $58,800. Even at 90% fault you would still recover 10%; Arizona never eliminates your claim purely because of your fault percentage.
