Damages

These are known as economic and non-economic damages.

Comparative Fault
In a car wreck, the concept of comparative fault (or contributory negligence) determines the degree of fault an injured person is responsible for. It's a crucial issue in a lot of cases and something your attorney may have to prove.
Most states have some form of a comparative fault law that allows victims to be compensated even if their share of blame is an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be reduced according to their level of fault. So, for example the case where a judge decides to award you $100,000 for your injuries, but determines that you're 40 percent at fault, you will only receive $60,000.
There are actually two different types of modified comparative-fault rules. The one is known as the 50% bar rule, which prevents an injured party from claiming damages when they are more 50 percent at fault. This is the practice of some states, including Colorado and Utah.
