Wheat Ridge Personal Injury Lawyers

Personal Injury Attorneys Serving Wheat Ridge, CO

Wheat Ridge injury claims are usually heard in the 1st Judicial District, most often at Jefferson Combined Court, 100 Jefferson County Pkwy, Golden, CO 80401. That venue is a fact of the crash location, not a slogan.

Colorado Personal Injury Law

The filing window and fault rule are statewide, not unique to Wheat Ridge:

• 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.
