Life is full of surprises, and sometimes they cannot be avoided.  However, the law in Colorado allows us to file Personal Injury lawsuits against those who have not taken the proper precautions and their actions cause harm to others.

A Personal Injury lawsuit can be filed in Colorado when you are harmed by the negligent actions of another person.  These actions can include any number of events that harm you personally.

What Does A Colorado Personal Injury Lawsuit Cover?

A Colorado Personal Injury lawsuit can be filed when you have incurred injuries that were caused by the carelessness (negligence) of another person.  This includes accidents that take place on the road, negligence by doctors, accidents caused at work, defective products, and even harm caused by faulty government practices.

The grounds for Personal Injury are very broad, and standards have been set for almost every conceivable action that can cause harm. 

How Can I Be Compensated For My Injuries?

If you can prove that your injuries have been caused by negligence, you can be awarded damages (usually money) as a form of compensation for causes of action such as physical injuries, lost wages, future lost wages, medical expenses, future medical expenses and even loss of enjoyment of life.  These damages can be sought by pursuing a Colorado Personal Injury claim and/or filing a Personal Injury lawsuit.  The amount of money awarded to you is dependent on the circumstances of your particular case.  

What Is The Quickest Way To Get Compensation?

The fastest and easiest way to get compensation for a Personal Injury lawsuit will not even require you to go to court!  If the parties reach a settlement of the issues in your case, where the other party agrees to pay you damages without all the hassle of going to court, then you would agree to drop all charges against the other party and your case would be finished at that point.

What Else Can My Attorney Help Me With?

Every case is unique.  For example, there are laws that govern the time limit for various cases after which you cannot file a claim.  In addition, there are certain legal procedures that we can help you comply with.  You will probably deal with the other party's insurance adjuster and/or attorney, and it is, therefore, necessary that you consult an experience Colorado Personal Injury attorney of your own in order to ensure that you get the outcome you deserve.  Your attorney will know what damages are available to you and what damages you should seek.  Legal issues are tricky, and it is very easy to lose out unless you go through the proper channels. 

What Will It Cost Me To File A Personal Injury Lawsuit In Colorado?

In most cases, Clawson & Clawson, LLP, will charge you nothing for filing a claim and pursuing it, but it will retain a percentage of the proceeds from your case--whether the proceeds are from a settlement or from a court judgment.  This is called a Contingency Fee basis and most Personal Injury cases fall into this category.  This will allow you to put no money down on your case, and the attorney will be paid at the end of your case if you prevail.  This process ensures that you do not lose out and that the attorney will try his or her best to get you the maximum damages that can be awarded for your particular case.
