How fault works

Pure comparative negligence — recover even if 99% at fault (reduced by your share)

If you were hurt by a wet floor, poor lighting, or a hidden hazard, the key questions are whether the owner knew or should have known about the danger and failed to fix it. Mississippi's pure comparative negligence rule matters because owners often argue you were not watching where you were going, yet even if you are found partly at fault, up to 99%, you can still recover, reduced by your share, unlike all-or-nothing Alabama. These claims depend on quickly gathering evidence such as incident reports and surveillance footage, and Mississippi generally gives you three years to bring an injury claim. FaultFreeClaims can connect you with an independent, licensed Mississippi attorney who works on premises liability cases, because we match, we do not represent you ourselves.
