Understanding Hawaii’s Negligence Laws For Big Island Claims
You may seek damages from a negligent party if they:
- Owed you a duty of care
- Breached that duty
- Caused your injury
- Caused you to suffer physical, property or economic losses
However, you can only recover damages if you share 50% or less of the fault for the accident. If you are 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages.
