FAQs About Colorado Springs Personal Injury Legal Services
Who pays after a personal injury lawsuit?
The goal of a personal injury claim in Colorado is to help you recover what you’ve lost — physically, financially, and emotionally. That includes compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and the loss of enjoyment, comfort, security, and overall well-being. Insurance companies often try to avoid paying what’s fair, and it’s our job to make sure they do.
What happens during the pre-litigation stage?
Here’s what to expect:
Investigation: We gather all the facts to see if you have a strong case — police reports, photos, videos, and insurance details. Remember, we’re not suing the person who caused your injury; we’re seeking compensation from their insurance company.
Treatment: Your health comes first. While you focus on recovery, we ensure your injuries are properly documented so the insurance company takes them seriously. If you need help finding the right care, we’re here for that too.
Record: Once your doctor releases you, we collect all medical records, bills, and imaging (X-rays, MRIs, etc.) to show the full impact of your injuries.
Demand preparation: We build a compelling case that explains how your injuries have affected your life, your humanity, your family, and your joy. Then, we send your demand package to the insurance company with a deadline to respond with a settlement offer.
Negotiation: If the insurance company offers less than what’s fair, we push back. We highlight the facts, your suffering, and the law that supports your right to proper compensation.
Settlement: If we reach an agreement, you receive a payout without going to court. The goal is to make you whole again so you can put this behind you and move forward.
What happens during the litigation stage?
Here’s what to expect:
Filing the complaint: This officially starts the lawsuit. It lays out the facts and legal reasons why you deserve compensation. Often, this moves your case to a new insurance adjuster and attorney, which can lead to a fresh look and a better settlement offer.
Case management plan: Once the defendant (the person you’re suing) is served, their insurance company assigns them a lawyer. We work with this attorney to set deadlines for trial.
Discovery: This is where we build a rock-solid case. We request information from the other side, subpoena records, conduct depositions, hire experts to review your case, and file motions to prepare for trial.
Mediation: Before trial, the court requires both sides to attempt mediation. A neutral third party helps negotiate a fair resolution. Most cases settle here.
Trial: If mediation doesn’t work, we take your injury case to Colorado court. A jury hears the evidence and decides how much you should be compensated. This is where you’ll want experienced trial attorneys — like us — who know how to fight and win in the courtroom.
Post-trial: If you win, we ask the court to add interest and legal costs to the verdict. Once finalized, we collect the judgment from the insurance company, and your case is officially closed (unless there’s an appeal). Our goal is that you are “made whole,” having all your injuries, harms, and losses recognized and compensated under the law.
