Personal Injury Attorneys Serving Security-Widefield, CO

Colorado Personal Injury Law

The filing window and fault rule are statewide, not unique to Security-Widefield:

• Statute of Limitations: Most injury claims: 2 years from the date of injury. Auto collisions: 3 years from the date of crash.
• 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. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.
