Prioritising 100% Liability for Your Protection
Following a serious injury or fatal accident, proving liability is the cornerstone of any legal claim. It is the definitive process of establishing who was at fault, and it dictates the level of support and security you will receive for the future.

Understanding Contributory Negligence
Following a serious accident, legal terms like split liability and contributory negligence can seem complex. In plain English, these terms refer to situations where more than one person is at fault for what happened.
What Is Split Liability?
Split liability occurs when both parties share responsibility for an accident. If liability is split 50/50, it means you were found to be half at fault. This doesn't mean you can't claim; it simply means your total compensation is reduced by your percentage of responsibility. Rose's expertise lies in minimising this split to ensure you receive the most support possible.
Common Examples
Contributory negligence often applies if your actions made your injuries more severe, even if you didn't cause the accident itself. Examples include:
- Not wearing a seatbelt during a collision
- Driving above the speed limit at the time of impact
- A pedestrian crossing the road without looking
Each of these can lead to a reduction in the final settlement amount.
