Your Personal Injury Questions Answered

Navigate the road to recovery with confidence as we address the most pressing questions our clients ask after experiencing a personal Injury.

The journey of a personal injury claim begins when you file a summons and complaint with the appropriate Colorado or Arizona court. This process involves:

  • Stating your demands for recovery
  • Filing documents with the court clerk
  • Receiving verified copies of your filing
  • Serving the defendant with legal documents
  • Including all grounds for your case

Time is crucial after suffering a personal injury. Follow these essential steps to protect your rights:

  • Contact a qualified personal injury attorney
  • Document your injuries with detailed photographs
  • Seek immediate medical attention
  • Follow your doctor’s treatment plan religiously
  • Write down your accident account while memory is fresh
  • Gather witness information and contact details
  • Maintain all medical records and receipts

Most personal injury cases settle before reaching trial. However, certain factors may influence whether your case goes to court:

  • Insurance company cooperation
  • Disputed facts about the accident
  • Contested legal issues
  • Strength of available evidence
  • Disagreements about liability

Several factors determine your case value:

Economic Damages:

  • Medical treatment costs
  • Lost wages
  • Property damage
  • Future medical expenses
  • Rehabilitation costs

Non-Economic Damages:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Loss of quality of life
  • Permanent disability

Multiplier Method:

  • Severe injuries: up to 5x economic damages
  • Moderate injuries: 1-1.5x economic damages

Comparative negligence determines how much compensation you can receive when you’re partially at fault for an accident. Both Colorado and Arizona handle this differently, making it crucial to understand your rights in each state.

Colorado’s Modified Comparative Negligence System

Colorado follows a modified comparative negligence system under Colorado Revised Statute § 13-21-111. Here’s what you need to know:

Key Points of Colorado Law:

  • You can recover damages if you’re less than 50% at fault
  • Your compensation reduces by your percentage of fault
  • Recovery is barred if you’re 50% or more at fault
  • Juries determine fault percentages

Example:

If you have $100,000 in damages but are found 30% at fault:

  • Total damages: $100,000
  • Your fault: 30%
  • Final recovery: $70,000 (reduced by 30%)

Arizona’s Pure Comparative Negligence System

Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence system under Arizona Revised Statute § 12-2505. This system offers different considerations:

Key Points of Arizona Law:

  • You can recover damages regardless of your fault percentage
  • Compensation reduces by your percentage of fault
  • Recovery possible even if 99% at fault
  • Juries determine fault allocation

Example:

If you have $100,000 in damages but are found 80% at fault:

  • Final recovery: $20,000 (reduced by 80%)
  • Total damages: $100,000
  • Your fault: 80%

Factors Considered in Determining Fault

Both states consider similar factors when establishing fault percentages:

  1. Traffic laws and regulations
  2. Witness statements
  3. Police reports
  4. Physical evidence
  5. Expert testimony
  6. Video surveillance
  7. Accident reconstruction

Settlement timeframes vary based on:

Quick Resolution Factors:

  • Clear liability
  • Well-documented damages
  • Cooperative insurance companies
  • Reasonable settlement demands

Extended Timeline Factors:

  • Insurance company delays
  • Complex liability issues
  • Multiple parties involved
  • Severe injuries
  • Disputed evidence
