Colorado Personal Injury Law: What You Need to Know

Understanding Colorado's personal injury laws is crucial for protecting your rights:

• Statute of Limitations: 3 years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit
• Fault System: Modified comparative fault (50% bar)
• Damage Caps: No cap on economic damages; non-economic damages capped in some cases
• Dram Shop Laws: Bars can be liable for serving intoxicated patrons
• Dog Bite Liability: Strict liability for dog bite injuries

Colorado's modified comparative fault rule means you can recover damages as long as you're less than 50% at fault for your accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Our attorneys work to minimize any fault assigned to you while maximizing your recovery.
