Video - Alabama Car Wreck - What Is The Defense Of Contributory Negligence?

In virtually every Alabama automobile accident case, the defendant will raise the defense of "contributory negligence" which simply means the defendant is claiming that you are guilty of negligence that contributed even 1% to the wreck. If that is true, then the normal outcome is you will lose your case.

In this video we discuss an overview of this law and in future videos we will explore it in more detail.
