Damages You May Be Entitled To
Your specific circumstances determine what compensation you can pursue. Potential categories include:
Healthcare Expenses
Emergency services, hospitalization, surgical procedures, prescriptions, physical therapy, and medical equipment. We factor in both current bills and anticipated future treatment.
Income Losses
Missed paychecks, forfeited bonuses, and diminished earning capacity if your injury limits your ability to work going forward.
Property Damage
Repair or replacement costs for your vehicle or other belongings destroyed in the incident.
Physical and Emotional Harm
Compensation addressing bodily pain, psychological distress, and the toll your injuries have taken on your overall quality of life.
Punitive Damages
Courts may impose additional damages when the responsible party’s conduct was particularly reckless or intentional.
Why Prompt Action Matters
If you suspect you have a valid personal injury claim, moving quickly is important for several reasons.
Colorado’s Filing Deadline
Under Colorado law, you typically have three years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. An experienced attorney can confirm the specific deadline that applies to your situation.
Evidence Fades Over Time
Proof that supports your claim can disappear as time passes. Documents get misplaced. Witnesses relocate, forget critical details, or pass away. Engaging a lawyer early helps ensure evidence is collected while it’s still available.
Insurers Gain Ground When You Wait
Personal injury claims usually seek compensation from the at-fault party’s insurance carrier. Insurers are businesses focused on protecting their bottom line, and they work hard to limit payouts. Delaying legal representation gives them more time to build a defense. The sooner you act, the better positioned you’ll be to recover what you’re owed.

FAQs
How can I tell if I have a valid personal injury claim?
A successful claim generally requires establishing that another party owed you a duty of care, failed to uphold that duty, caused your injuries through that failure, and left you with financial losses. We’ll evaluate your situation during a free consultation and let you know whether you have a case worth pursuing.
What kinds of damages might I recover?
Depending on the facts, you may be able to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and additional losses. We’ll help you identify which categories apply to your circumstances.
Can you help if a family member died in an accident?
We handle wrongful death claims with sensitivity and compassion. While no outcome can undo your loss, we can help your family pursue accountability and compensation. We’ll manage the legal process so you can focus on those closest to you.
What are your fees?
You pay nothing upfront and nothing at all unless we recover compensation for you. Our contingency fee structure means we only collect a fee if your case succeeds. There’s no financial risk on your part.
How long will my case take?
Timelines vary. A straightforward auto accident claim might wrap up in a few months, while more complicated matters can take longer. We’ll provide a realistic estimate based on the specifics of your situation.
Will I have to appear in court?
Most personal injury claims settle through negotiation without ever reaching a courtroom. However, if the insurance company refuses to offer a fair amount, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial.
What should I do right after an accident?
Seek medical attention immediately, even if injuries seem minor. Report the incident to the appropriate authorities. Document as much as you can by photographing the scene, your injuries, and any property damage, and by collecting contact information from witnesses. Then reach out to us to discuss your legal options.
What is comparative negligence and how does it work in Colorado?
Colorado follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you’re found to be 50% or more responsible for the accident, you cannot recover compensation. If your share of fault is below 50%, your award will be reduced by that percentage. We can help you understand how this might affect your case.
