Under Wisconsin law, you can generally recover damages if your negligence is not greater than the negligence of the person you are seeking compensation from. Your recovery is reduced according to your percentage of fault.
For example, if you sustained $100,000 in damages but were 20% responsible, your recovery could be reduced to $80,000.
