Types Of Personal Injury Claims We Handle in Golden

In Colorado, personal injury claims can be filed against individuals, groups, companies, and government entities for negligence, product liability, or strict liability. At Olson Personal Injury Lawyers, we have experience handling the following types of personal injury cases:

How Do I Know If I Have a Valid Personal Injury Claim?

To recover compensation in a negligence claim under Colorado law, you must establish that the person or entity who caused your injury had a legal duty of care to you, that they breached that duty, that the breach caused your injury, and that the injury caused you financial harm. Under the law, negligence is the failure to act in a reasonably careful way.

To be successful in a personal injury lawsuit, you will need to prove by a preponderance of evidence that the defendant owed you a duty of care, breached that duty with negligence, and caused your injuries and losses.

Evidence may include medical records, expert testimony, police reports, witness statements, and photos and videos of the accident scene and your injuries. Some of this evidence can be difficult to access, but our experienced personal injury attorneys can help you gather even the most elusive documents and records to build a strong case with the best chance of success.

Your Recovery Starts With the Right Legal Team

A serious injury can impact your health, work, and future. We’re here to hold the responsible party accountable and get you the compensation you deserve.

Compensation Available to Personal Injury Accident Victims in Golden

Depending on the specifics of your case, you may be eligible to recover several types of damages, including economic, non-economic, punitive, and wrongful death damages.

Economic damages covers the financial costs, including medical bills, lost wages, and loss of future earnings. Meanwhile, non-economic damages compensate injured people for non-quantifiable losses such as pain and suffering. The court may also award punitive damages if the defendant’s conduct was particularly egregious or reckless.

If your loved one has died from an accident, you might be entitled to pursue wrongful death damages.

Every injury case is unique, and an Olson Personal Injury Lawyers attorney can help you determine how much your case is worth and what damages you can recover. We achieve outstanding results by thinking outside the box, treating each case like the individual case it is, and working as a team.

Golden Personal Injury FAQs

How Long Do I Have To File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Colorado?

Most Colorado personal injury lawsuits have a statute of limitations, or filing deadline, within two years of the injury date. However, this rule has some exceptions, including for cases involving minors. The statute of limitations for motor vehicle accident lawsuits is three years from the accident.

If you wait until after the statute of limitations has expired to file your case, you will likely lose your right to recover compensation. Contact Olson Personal Injury Lawyers today, and our attorneys will determine the deadline for your case and ensure you file suit on time.

Can I File a Lawsuit If I Was Partially at Fault for My Accident?

Colorado is a modified comparative negligence state, meaning you can still recover compensation if you were less than 50 percent at fault for the accident. Your compensation will be reduced in proportion to your share of the fault. However, if you were more than 50 percent at fault, you are barred from recovering compensation from any other parties.

Will My Case Go To Trial?

Generally, personal injury cases settle before going to trial. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached outside of court, Olson Personal Injury Lawyers are prepared to fight for you in a trial. Our attorneys prepare every case as if it will go to trial, giving us the upper hand in settlement negotiations and telling insurance companies we mean business.
