Your Rights After a Warwick Car Accident
Rhode Island is a fault-based insurance state, so the at-fault driver's insurer is responsible for your damages. Under pure comparative negligence (R.I. Gen. Laws § 9-20-4), you can recover even if you were partly at fault.
Deadlines to Keep in Mind
You generally have three years to file a claim (R.I. Gen. Laws § 9-1-14), but acting quickly preserves evidence. A shortened notice window often applies to claims against the state or a municipality, and damages against public entities may be capped under r.i. gen. laws § 9-31-2.
