Frequently Asked Questions

How does Iowa comparative fault law affect my case?
Iowa uses a modified comparative fault rule. You can recover damages only if you are 50 percent or less at fault. Your total compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example if you are 20 percent at fault you receive 80 percent of the awarded damages.
