What are common car accident injuries?

• Head injuries, including concussions, which is a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI).
• Neck injuries, including whiplash.
• Back or spinal cord injuries.
• Herniated discs.
• Pinched nerves.
• Broken bones, including broken arms or legs.
• Internal injuries, including organ damage and internal bleeding or bruising.

These are just some of the most common car accident injuries. You or a loved one might be dealing with a different type of injury after your Colorado crash.

How much is my injury claim worth?

Many different factors often come into play when determining car accident injury compensation. Depending on the severity of your injury, the length of your recovery and other issues, your injury claim could be worth thousands of dollars or significantly more. The bottom line is you should be paid for all your accident expenses, now and in the future. Such expenses can include:

• Vehicle repair or replacement costs.
• Emergency medical care.
• Medical diagnostic tests, including X-Rays and MRIs.
• Surgical procedures.
• Pain and suffering.
• Hospital fees.
• Physical therapy.
• Follow-up doctor’s appointments.
• In-home medical care.
• Replacement income if you cannot work while you’re recovering from your injury.
• Lost future income if cannot return to work due a permanent disability.

Most importantly, in order to be compensated, you will need to prove that the other driver was at fault. That’s because many states, including Colorado and Arizona, have a fault-based insurance system. This means the at-fault party – which is often the at-fault driver’s insurance company – is responsible for compensating all injury victims. This is why it’s important to have an experienced attorney investigating your accident and demanding the money you rightfully deserve.

Can I ask for more money for my injury claim?

Don’t be surprised if the at-fault driver’s insurance company makes a settlement offer soon after your accident. It might be tempting to accept such an offer, especially if you already have a lot of medical bills and less income coming in if you cannot work while you’re recovering from your accident.

Many settlement offers often fall far short of how much money you need to cover all your accident-related expenses. What you might not realize as well is if you agree to accept an offer, you cannot ask for more money in the future, even if your accident-related expenses increase dramatically in years to come.

This is why many people hire our law firm. We demand maximum compensation for injured Colorado car accident victims instead of accepting a settlement offer that does not fully meet their needs. You have the right to ask for more money and should do so. Otherwise, you could end up having to pay for accident expenses out of your own pocket.

How can a Colorado Springs car accident injury lawyer help me?

There are so many different ways an experienced attorney can help if you have been hurt in a car accident caused by another driver. This includes:

• Handle all the legal paperwork often associated with complex cases.
• Conduct an in-depth, independent investigation of your accident in order to find evidence in support of your injury claim.
• Consult with accident reconstruction experts if necessary.
• Deal directly with the at-fault driver’s insurance company on your behalf.
• Negotiate the best possible settlement offer.
• File a lawsuit or take other legal action if necessary on your behalf.

The stakes are high when it comes to car accident injuries. You also often only have a limited amount of time to take legal action. Most states have a deadline for taking legal action, known as the statute of limitations. In Colorado, for example, that deadline is three years from the date of your accident. Don’t miss out on your opportunity for justice. Hire an experienced attorney to fight for the money you deserve.
