Wyoming Car Accident Settlement Calculator

Wyoming's 51% bar for comparative fault means you can still recover in a car accident case as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. In a two-car collision where fault is split 50/50, you can still recover 50% of your damages. This is slightly more favorable than 50% bar states, where equal fault eliminates recovery entirely.

You have 4 years to file suit in Wyoming, a deadline that is longer than the national average of 2.7 years. While you have more time than most states, delaying still weakens your case as evidence degrades and witnesses become harder to locate. Wyoming does apply a discovery rule, which can adjust the starting point of the limitations period when the injury was not immediately discoverable.

Wyoming’s mandatory minimum auto insurance is 25/50/20 (bodily injury per person / per accident / property damage). These are relatively low minimums. Medical costs from even a moderate car accident frequently exceed $25K, which means you may need to pursue additional recovery options if the at-fault driver carries only the minimum.
