Do You Need a Personal Injury Attorney?

Personal injury law covers cases involving physical, emotional, or financial damages caused to an individual due to another's negligence. Filing a personal injury claim will allow you to hold the party responsible for your injury accountable while also requesting they cover damages incurred from the accident, like medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, or other costs associated with the injury. If you’ve been injured in an accident caused by another party, an attorney can represent your interests in cases involving car accidents, workplace injuries, or any other type of accident causing an injury. The purpose of this area of law is to make sure that victims receive fair compensation for their losses so they can move on with their lives. Personal injury claims also provide an important way for victims to hold negligent parties responsible for the harm they cause and promote safety in society.

Leading Causes of Personal Injury Claims in Colorado

Car accidents, medical malpractice, and slip-and-fall incidents cause most of the personal injury claims in Colorado. Car accidents lead the way with the most reported cases, typically involving collisions between two vehicles or even one single-vehicle crash. Medical malpractice cases, which involve injuries sustained from the negligence of a health care provider, are also increasingly common. The cold weather in Colorado also leads to many slips and falls, commonly sustained due to ice on sidewalks or broken stairs in rental properties. 

Other common causes of personal injury claims include workplace accidents, product liability issues, mesothelioma and asbestos claims, and recreational incidents such as skiing fatalities or sports injuries. If you or someone you love suspects that an individual is suffering physical harm due to another’s negligence, filing a claim may help cover the costs associated with medical treatment.

Stay In The Know

  • Is My Personal Injury Settlement or Verdict Taxable?
    This depends: Punitive damages are taxable as "other means of income." Interest income comes from judgment interest. Compensation for economic and noneconomic damages is not taxed by the IRS. The settlement or verdict agreement will be clearly stated so the IRS will impose you fairly.
  • What Is the Required Minimum Auto Insurance In Colorado?
    Legal auto insurance coverage is: $25,000 per injured victim $15,000 minimum in property damage $50,000 per accident, no matter how many victims have been affected Since Colorado is a "fault" state, this means you can file a claim against the defendant driver's insurance carrier. However, if the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, there are steps you can take to get around that.
  • If the Accident Was Somewhat My Fault, Can I Still Win My Case?
    Yes. However, you may not win the maximum possible settlement amount. Under Colorado's fault principles, your damages will be decreased in proportion to your fault. So, if you were 30% at fault, then your damages would be reduced by that amount in the claims. Keep in mind that the court determines fault.
  • How Much Time Do I Have to File an Auto Accident Lawsuit?
    In most cases, you have around three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. The deadline can be prolonged if you discovered the injury later. If you are planning to sue a government establishment, you may be required to file a claim within a few months after the accident.
