The answer depends on the overall strength of your case. If the case is not strong, it may not be worthwhile to file a lawsuit. However, if the defendant was clearly negligent, you may still have a case, even if you are partially at fault. Settlements in such cases are determined by the percent of fault attributed to the defendant. If you’re found 40 percent at fault and the defendant is found 60 percent at fault and you win your case, your settlement will be approximately 60 percent of what it would have been if you had no fault at all. An experienced personal injury attorney will be able to answer your questions and determine whether you have a case.
I was partially responsible for my pedestrian accident. Do I still have a case?

Great experience working with Tim Spangler and the Demas Law team. They helped me through the whole process and was very professional and responsive when it came to any questions that I had. I highly recommend him and his team as they go above and beyond!

We’ve all seen it, crazy driver on the road. Driving too fast, texting & driving, weaving in & out of traffic. How many times over the years, all of a sudden everyone is breaking. So close, but you continue unscathed. Then, one day, it happens, you become the statistic, the one everyone slows down to look at. You’re in shock, what do you do? No one seems concerned, not the police, not the doctors. You need support, guidance, and protection. Who do you call? Lucky for me, that was Demas law. From day one they provided all the help, guidance, compassion, & support that lead me from A to Z. The entire team was professional and kind. My gratitude and appreciation for all they’ve done for me far exceeded my expectations. If you’re in need, don’t waiver, go with Demas law group, it’ll be the best thing you could ever do for yourself!

Matt Young at Demas Law did a fantastic job representing our car accident case. Matt was very knowledgeable, kind, and very thorough. He was very flexible with his time, made sure all our questions were answered, and was able to secure a settlement in a really difficult situation. The insurance company we tried working with before hiring an attorney pretty much told us “sorry we can’t help you”. Matt turned that around quickly and got the highest payout for an uninsured motorist case. The rates were more than reasonable and we would not only recommend the firm but also use them again if the unfortunate happens. M.A.

The Demas Law Group is a phenomenal firm. Jacqueline Siemens helped provided expert guidance to us while we navigated the process of getting medical treatment after we were broadsided by a truck. She was professional, experienced and extremely competent. I had never experienced a car accident before so her experience was invaluable. Thank you Jacqueline Siemens and Demas Law Group for everything!
