no-fault
Nobody gets blamed
No-fault describes a system where compensation or resolution doesn't depend on assigning blame.
No-fault insurance pays for damages regardless of who caused an accident: In no-fault states, your own insurer covers your injuries.
A no-fault divorce dissolves a marriage without requiring proof that either spouse did something wrong.
