[[{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Answer","name":"Answer Question","text":"Indiana is not a no-fault state. In no-fault states, drivers typically turn to their own insurance companies for compensation after a car crash, regardless of who caused it. However, Indiana follows a traditional fault-based system, also known as a \"tort\" system.  Under Indiana's fault-based system, the driver determined to be responsible for causing the accident must compensate the other parties for their injuries and other losses. This means that if you're injured in a car wreck caused by another driver's negligence, you have the right to pursue compensation from the at-fault driver's insurance company or file a lawsuit against the driver directly.","@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Answer"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Answer","name":"Answer Question1","text":"Even if you believe you may be partially at fault for the accident, you may still be entitled to compensation under Indiana's comparative fault law. However, your compensation will be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you.","@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Answer1"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Answer","name":"Answer Question2","text":"If you need to file a lawsuit to pursue compensation for your Indiana car accident, you must be aware of the state's statute of limitations. In Indiana, you generally have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation through the court system.","@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Answer2"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","name":"Determining Fault in an Indiana Car Wreck","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Is Indiana a No-Fault State?","acceptedAnswer":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Answer"},"@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Question"},{"@type":"Question","name":"What If I Am Partially Responsible for the Crash?","acceptedAnswer":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Answer1"},"@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Question1"},{"@type":"Question","acceptedAnswer":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Answer2"},"name":"How Long Do I Have to File a Car Accident Lawsuit in Indiana?","@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#Question2"}],"@id":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#FAQPage"}],{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Blog","item":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Determining Fault in an Indiana Car Wreck","item":"https:\/\/www.truittlawoffices.com\/blog\/determining-fault-in-an-indiana-car-wreck\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
