Nevada follows modified comparative negligence rules codified in NRS 41.141, allowing recovery when you’re 50% or less at fault. Your damages reduce proportionally by your fault percentage, so 30% fault means recovering 70% of total damages. This system differs from pure comparative negligence states allowing recovery regardless of fault percentage. Defendants bear the burden of proving your comparative fault through evidence and testimony. Juries allocate fault percentages among all parties including non-parties who contributed to the accident. Multiple defendants can be jointly and severally liable if acting together, though Nevada limits this for non-economic damages. Understanding comparative negligence helps evaluate settlement offers and trial risks when fault attribution remains disputed.
