How is fault determined in a Florida auto accident case?
Fault is ultimately determined by the trier effect, a judge or a jury, but in many instances, it’s the evidence that points to who’s at fault. For instance, in Florida, if there’s a rear end collision, in most cases there’s a presumption that it’s that person’s fault. But if you call an attorney and you talk about the situation with the attorney, they can give you a good idea of whether there’s a liability issue or an issue as to who caused the accident.
