Yes, Florida is a comparative negligence state. This means that if an individual is injured in an accident, their compensation can be reduced by their percentage of fault in the incident. Florida follows a "modified comparative negligence" rule, which allows recovery as long as the injured party is not more than 50% At Fault. If they are found to be 51% or more at fault, they cannot recover any damages.
