With experience in complex cases involving commercial vehicles and uninsured motorists, we ensure clients receive fair settlements that cover both current and future needs.
Truck Accident Litigation
We represent victims of semi-truck and tractor-trailer accidents, addressing unique challenges like federal regulations and multiple liable parties. Our team works with accident reconstruction experts to establish liability against trucking companies, drivers, and manufacturers. We pursue compensation for catastrophic injuries including spinal cord damage and traumatic brain injuries, handling cases involving jackknife accidents, underride collisions, and cargo-related incidents.

Our firm advocates for motorcyclists injured due to driver negligence, handling cases involving lane splitting disputes, visibility issues, and road design defects.

Rideshare Accident Support
We help Uber and Lyft passengers navigate complex insurance claims involving multiple coverage layers. Our attorneys determine driver status at accident time to access appropriate policy limits, handling cases from minor collisions to catastrophic injuries.

Wrongful Death Advocacy
We support families who've lost loved ones in preventable accidents, pursuing justice against responsible parties.

Questions
What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
We handle all motor vehicle accident cases including car, truck, motorcycle, and rideshare incidents, plus premises liability, wrongful death, and catastrophic injury claims across Colorado.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
We work on a contingency fee basis - you pay nothing unless we win your case. Our fee comes from the settlement or verdict amount, ensuring access to justice regardless of financial situation.
Do you handle cases outside Lakewood?
Yes, we serve clients throughout the Denver-Metro area and statewide in Colorado, with experience handling cases in Jefferson County, Denver, and surrounding regions.
How long do I have to file an injury claim?
Colorado generally allows three years from the accident date, but evidence preservation and insurance notifications have shorter deadlines. Contact us promptly to ensure timely case development.
Can I still get compensation if I share fault?
Colorado's modified comparative negligence allows recovery if you're less than 50% responsible. Your compensation reduces proportionally, but our attorneys will challenge unfair fault assignments to maximize recovery.
