Can I recover UM/UIM benefits if I was partially at fault in Georgia?
Yes, with a caveat. Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule under O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33: you may recover as long as you are less than 50% at fault, but your damages are reduced by your percentage of fault. UM/UIM benefits are similarly prorated. HBLG works diligently to minimize any fault attributed to our clients and maximize the net recovery.
