Why You Need a Denver Personal Injury Attorney
Navigating the aftermath of an accident can be overwhelming. Colorado’s personal injury laws are complex and encompass various statutes and regulations designed to protect the rights of injury victims. Understanding the relevant personal injury laws and ensuring that your rights are protected requires both experience and expertise.
Establishing Negligence:
In Colorado, to establish negligence, the victim must show that the defendant owed a duty of care, breached this duty, and that the victim suffered damages as a result.
Colorado’s Comparative Negligence Rule:
Colorado follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means even if you bear some fault for the accident, so long as you are found to be less than 50% at fault, you can still recover damages. Under the rule, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Statute of Limitations:
Colorado imposes specific time periods for filing personal injury claims. These periods can range from just a few months to three years depending on the parties involved and the type of accident. By failing to file your case within these time frames, you could be forfeiting your right to compensation for your injuries.

Steps to Take After an Accident Resulting in Injury
Taking prompt and appropriate actions immediately following an accident resulting in injury can significantly impact the outcome of your claim and your ability to recover the maximum available damages.
Seek Immediate Medical Attention
If you have been in an accident, even if you don’t think you are hurt, protect your rights by promptly seeking a comprehensive medical examination. If you are injured and your injuries go untreated, they could become more severe and even debilitating. Receiving medical attention right after an accident insures that any injuries you do have are recognized, treated and documented, all of which is essential to establishing a strong personal injury claim.
Report the Incident to the Appropriate Authorities
Immediately following an accident you should file a report with the appropriate authorities. If you were in a car or motorcycle accident, contact the local police department and ensure that they create an official report of the accident. If you were involved in a slip and fall accident, report the incident to the property owner or manager and request that they file an incident report. If you were involved in a workplace accident, notify your supervisor immediately and document your injury with your employer’s HR department.
Gather Evidence and Documentation
If you have been involved in an accident, you will want to gather any available evidence at the scene. Take photos of the accident scene, any visible injuries, and any property damage. If there were witnesses, collect witness statements or contact information. If and when you receive treatment, keep copies of all medical records, bills, and receipts.
