    Rear-End Collisions

    Rear-end collisions are some of the most frequent car accidents occurring on Colorado’s highways and other roadways. In Colorado, the at-fault driver who rear-ends another vehicle is generally liable for any damages caused by the accident.

    If you’re involved in a rear-end collision, here are some important steps to take immediately following the accident:

    If you or a loved one are involved in a head-on collision, here are the important steps you should take immediately following the accident:

    T-Bone Accidents

    T-bone accidents, where one vehicle collides head-on with the side of another, can be caused by distracted driving, impaired driving, disregarding a red light or stop sign, or not yielding the right of way, and often result in considerable property damage and catastrophic injuries including head trauma, or even fatalities.

    If you or a loved one are involved in a T-bone accident, it is essential that you seek immediate medical evaluation and treatment and contact an experienced car accident attorney to preserve your rights. At Fisher & Associates, our car accident attorneys have extensive experience in handling T-bone accident cases and are committed to helping you secure the medical care and compensation that you need to recover from your injuries and get your life back on track.

    Colorado Car Accident Laws and Regulations

    At Fisher & Associates, our car accident attorneys know the laws and regulations surrounding car accident claims inside and out, including the statutes of limitations periods for filing personal injury claims and the comparative negligence rules that govern recoveries when the parties share fault for the accident. If you have been injured in a car accident, contact Fisher & Associates and hire an experienced car accident attorney who understands these laws and will help you to protect your rights and secure the maximum available compensation for your injuries.

    Statutes of Limitations

    Statutes of limitations govern the time period during which a claim must be filed before the right to recovery is lost. Statutes of limitations in Colorado car accident cases range from just a few months to up to three years depending on the type of case and the parties involved. Missing these deadlines can mean losing your right to compensation.

    Protect your rights! Contact Fisher & Associates today to find out what the statute of limitations is for your case. Our experienced legal team will help you navigate the complex legal landscape, ensuring that your claim is filed within the applicable statute of limitations period and protecting your right to secure the compensation you deserve.

    Comparative Negligence Rules

    Colorado’s comparative negligence rules govern the the amount of compensation an accident victim is eligible to receive where both parties share some degree of fault for the accident. Colorado’s comparative negligence system is a modified comparative negligence system which means that if an injured party is less than 50% at fault, they can recover damages, but their compensation is reduced in proportion to their degree of fault.

    If you or a loved one has been injured in a car accident and are seeking compensation for your injuries and other damages, you need a lawyer who understands Colorado’s comparative negligence rules. At Fisher & Associates, our attorneys have extensive experience navigating these rules and will work diligently to ensure that you receive the maximum compensation available to you even if you are partially at fault for your accident.

    For the purpose of improving traffic and highway safety in the State of Colorado, the Colorado Department of Transportation (“CDOT”) maintains a database of all crashes in the state. Most of these accidents involved drivers who were speeding, distracted or driving under the influence.

    Steps to take after a car accident

    Seek Medical Attention

    If you have been in a car accident, even if you don’t feel hurt, seeking prompt medical attention is critical to protecting yourself and your rights. Injuries from a car accident may not be apparent right away and can become more severe if left untreated. Prompt medical attention ensures that, if you are injured, your injuries are properly recognized and documented, which is essential when dealing with insurance companies and pursuing compensation. By prioritizing your health and documenting your injuries, you are not only taking care of yourself but also building a strong foundation for your car accident case. At Fisher & Associates, our attorneys know how best to use your medical records and other related evidence to prove the extent of your injuries and losses and will fight to get you the maximum financial compensation available to ensure that you can pay your medical bills and get back on your feet.

    Gather Evidence

    Gathering evidence after a car accident is critical to building a strong case and validating your claim. This evidence may include:

    • Photographs of the accident scene
    •Photographs of vehicle damage
    • Photographs of any visible injuries
    • Witness statements
    • Copies of any police repor    ts or other accident reports

    This information can be crucial in demonstrating liability and bolstering your claim for compensation. At Fisher & Associates, our experienced car accident attorneys will help you to gather and analyze the necessary evidence to support your claim and ensure your case is well-prepared, thereby increasing your chances of obtaining the maximum available compensation.

    Contact Fisher & Associates

    If you or a loved one has been in a serious car accident, having a knowledgeable and experienced car accident lawyer by your side can make all the difference. At Fisher & Associates, our legal team will guide you through the legal process, help you understand your rights and options, represent your interests in negotiations with the insurance companies, and ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve.

    Compensation for car accident injuries

    Compensation awards in car accident cases often cover multiple types of damages from medical expenses, to lost wages, to damages for pain and suffering. If you have been in an accident, you need a car accident lawyer with expertise in the many different types of damages that are compensable and will help you get the financial compensation that you are entitled to.

    Medical Expenses

    Compensation for medical expenses is intended to cover the full cost of treatment and rehabilitation for injuries sustained in a car accident. This compensation may include:
    • Past and future medical expenses
    • Doctor visits
    • Hospital stays
    • Surgeries
    • Medications
    • Out-of-pocket medical costs
    • Other healthcare-related expenses
    At Fisher & Associates, our car accident attorneys understand the financial burden that medical expenses from injuries in an accident can place on victims and their families. We will work tirelessly to ensure that you receive the compensation you need to cover the full cost of your medical care and recovery.

    Lost Wages

    Compensation for lost wages is designed to cover the income that you lost as a result of your injuries from the car accident. At Fisher & Associates, our experienced car accident attorneys will assist you in calculating and claiming your lost wages, ensuring that you receive the compensation you deserve. Our team understands the documentation required to support a lost wages claim and will assist you in gathering pay stubs, tax returns, and other documents necessary to effectively demonstrate your lost earnings. We understand the financial strain that lost wages can place on car accident victims and their families and will fight to ensure that you receive the maximum available compensated for these losses.

    Pain and Suffering Damages

    “Pain and suffering” or non-economic damages provide compensation for the physical, emotional and psychological effects of a car accident. This type of compensation addresses the intangible losses that cannot be precisely quantified. At Fisher & Associates, our car accident lawyers are skilled in assessing and describing each individual client’s pain and suffering damages. We understand the profound effect that pain and suffering can have on your life and will work diligently to ensure that your story is told and you receive the compensation you deserve for the physical, emotional and psychological impact that the accident had on you and your family.

    Potential limits on Compensation for car accident injuries

    Although all drivers in Colorado are required to carry some amount of insurance coverage for bodily injury, even if you have suffered from serious injuries, your settlement might be limited by the amount of coverage that the at-fault driver elected to carry. Fortunately, there may be other sources of available compensation depending on the nature of your case. If you were hit by a commercial driver, that driver’s employer may be liable. If you have uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage, your own insurance may be a source of compensation. If the at-fault driver has other assets, you may elect to seek a judgement against them in civil court for the additional compensation owed to you over and above their insurance coverage levels.

    At Fisher & Associates, our car accident attorneys will help you to determine the full amount of your damages and all available sources of compensation. Call us today and let us help you get the maximum available compensation for you and your family.

    Proving Fault

    When you work with Fisher & Associates, we help you to compile the information you need to support a determination of fault. Evidence gathered at the scene and after the accident might include:

    •     police reports
    • damage to the vehicles involved
    • witness statements
    • admissions of the other driver(s)
    • expert witness testimony
    • records of your injuries
    • damage to the involved vehicles
    • cell phone records
    • skid marks or other visual evidence from the accident scene

    At Fisher & Associates, we will help you understand the laws in Colorado governing determinations of fault and we will work tirelessly to ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve.

    Dealing with uninsured and underinsured motorists

    Many drivers in Colorado are driving without insurance or with the minimum coverage required by law. If one of these uninsured or underinsured drivers was the cause of your accident, there may not be sufficient insurance coverage to compensate you for all of your damages. Handling claims involving uninsured and underinsured motorists can be a complex and nerve-wracking process.

    At Fisher & Associates, we handle uninsured and underinsured motorist cases on a regular basis. Our experienced car accident attorneys can help you understand your rights and options in these cases and will assist you in pursuing you uninsured or underinsured motorist claim. With our expertise and dedication, you can trust that we will work tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome for your case under the circumstances.

    Uninsured Motorist Claims

    Uninsured motorist claims are claims that arise when the at-fault driver in an accident is driving without insurance. If uninsured motorist coverage is included in your car insurance policy, you may be able to file a claim and recover for your injuries and other damages through your own car insurance even if the other driver was 100% at fault for the accident.


    Navigating uninsured motorist claims can be challenging, but at Fisher & Associates our car accident attorneys are here to help. We will gather all relevant information on the circumstances of the accident, work with your insurance company on the uninsured motorist claim, provide guidance throughout the process, and file your case and represent you in court if necessary.

    Underinsured Motorist Claims

    Underinsured motorist claims refer to insurance claims that arise when the at-fault driver has auto insurance but doesn’t have enough coverage to compensate you for all of your damages. If you carry underinsured motorist coverage on your own insurance policy, this provides you with additional protection for when the at-fault driver’s insurance is insufficient.


    At Fisher & Associates, our car accident attorneys have extensive experience handling underinsured motorist claims and will guide you through each step of the process. We will ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve from the at-fault driver’s insurance company as well as any additional compensation from your own insurance company available to help cover your damages.
