This means the at-fault driver&#8217;s insurance policy is typically the primary source of coverage for injuries sustained by others involved in the collision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Connecticut is an at-fault state, which works differently from no-fault states like New York or New Jersey. Here, injured people can file a claim directly against the driver who caused the accident. Your own health insurance may also help cover initial medical costs while a liability claim is being processed, which can take time depending on how complex the case is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If the at-fault driver has little or no insurance, your own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may come into play. Connecticut law requires insurers to offer this type of coverage, though drivers can choose to reject it in writing. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Medical payments coverage, sometimes called MedPay, is another optional add-on that can help pay for treatment regardless of who caused the crash.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is also worth knowing that Connecticut follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are found partially at fault for the collision, any compensation you may be eligible to receive could be reduced by your percentage of fault. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you are more than 50% at fault, you may not be able to recover damages at all. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UM<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lalawct.com\/pt\/car-accident-attorney-ct\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> advogado de acidentes de carro <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">can help review the details of your case and explain how fault and coverage may apply to your situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At\u00a0 L.A.
