Do you have a Colorado personal injury case?
Most viable claims share four elements: (1) someone else owed you a duty of care, (2) they breached it through negligence, (3) that breach caused your injury, and (4) you suffered real damages — medical bills, lost income, or lasting pain. If all four apply, a Denver personal injury lawyer can typically evaluate your case for free.
How contingency fees work
Denver personal injury lawyers almost always work on contingency: no fee unless they recover money for you. Typical fees run 33% pre-suit and 40% if a lawsuit is filed, plus case costs. Always get the fee agreement in writing and ask whether costs come out before or after the fee is calculated — it changes your take-home meaningfully.
