How fault works

Pure comparative negligence — recover even if 99% at fault (reduced by your share)

Beyond a workers' compensation claim, injuries on a construction site can involve subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, or property owners whose negligence, sometimes alongside OSHA safety violations, contributed to the harm. Mississippi's pure comparative negligence rule helps injured workers here: you can recover even if you were partly at fault, up to 99%, with your award reduced by your share, unlike Alabama where any fault ends the claim. These cases require prompt investigation of the scene and safety records, and Mississippi generally sets a three-year deadline for injury claims. FaultFreeClaims can connect you with an independent, licensed Mississippi attorney familiar with construction cases, because we are a matching service, not a law firm.

Frequently asked questions

Can I have a claim beyond workers' comp after a construction injury in Mississippi?

Often yes. If a party other than your employer, such as a subcontractor or equipment maker, contributed to your injury, you may have a separate third-party claim governed by Mississippi's pure comparative negligence rule. An independent attorney we connect you with can identify who may be responsible.

Do OSHA violations affect a Mississippi construction accident claim?

Safety violations can serve as evidence of negligence in a civil claim, though they are weighed alongside all the facts. FaultFreeClaims can match you with an independent Mississippi attorney to assess how they apply to your case.

How long do I have to file an injury claim in Mississippi?

In Mississippi, the deadline is generally 3 years from the date of the accident. 3 years personal injury (general); wrongful death 3 years. Deadlines are strict — the sooner you act, the more options you have.

Can I recover if the accident was partly my fault?

Mississippi follows this rule: Pure comparative negligence — recover even if 99% at fault (reduced by your share). Because the answer depends on the details, it's worth talking to an attorney who knows Mississippi law before assuming you have no case.
