Abogado de lesiones laborales en Denver
Si usted se lesionó en el trabajo, puede sentirse presionado a "aguantar" y seguir trabajando. Pero una lesión laboral puede afectar su salud y su futuro. La buena noticia: en Colorado, la compensación laboral (workers' compensation) puede cubrir tratamiento médico y parte de su salario perdido.
En Conduit Law, ayudamos a trabajadores lesionados en Denver a entender sus derechos, evitar errores comunes y enfrentar negativas del seguro o del empleador. Para una consulta gratuita, llame al (720) 432-7032.

¿Qué cubre workers' compensation?

Problemas comunes en reclamos laborales

¿Puedo tener también un caso de lesiones personales?
A veces sí. Si una persona o empresa externa (no su empleador directo) causó su lesión — por ejemplo, un conductor, un contratista, o un fabricante — usted podría tener un reclamo adicional fuera de workers' compensation. Esto puede permitir recuperar daños como dolor y sufrimiento, que normalmente no se incluyen en workers' comp.

Personal Injury Laws by State — Colorado, Arizona, California & Kansas
Colorado follows a modified comparative negligence system under C.R.S. § 13-21-111, barring recovery if the plaintiff is 50% or more at fault and reducing damages by the plaintiff's fault percentage. Most injury claims: 2 years from the date of injury. Auto collisions: 3 years from the date of crash. Arizona applies pure comparative negligence under A.R.S. § 12-2505, allowing recovery regardless of the plaintiff's fault percentage — even a plaintiff 99% at fault can recover 1% of damages. Arizona's statute of limitations is two years under A.R.S. § 12-542. California also follows pure comparative negligence under CCP § 1431.2, with a two-year filing deadline per CCP § 335.1. Kansas mirrors Colorado's approach with a modified comparative negligence threshold of 50% under K.S.A. § 60-258a, but allows only a two-year filing window under K.S.A. § 60-513. These differences significantly impact case strategy — a plaintiff 55% at fault recovers nothing in Colorado or Kansas but retains a reduced claim in Arizona and California.

Injury Law at a Glance — CO, CA, AZ & KS
Three things shape almost every injury claim: how long you have to file, how fault is divided, and what the law lets you recover. They differ by state — here is where the four states we practice in stand.
