Denver Personal Injury Lawyer
Denver personal injury lawyers fight for maximum compensation while you recover from accidents, negligence, and wrongdoing across Colorado.
Understanding Your Rights After a Personal Injury
If you’ve been harmed because someone else acted carelessly or recklessly, you deserve full compensation under Colorado law. Personal injury cases can arise from many different accidents, including car and truck collisions, slip and fall injuries, medical malpractice, dog bites, defective products and more. When another person’s negligence causes you to suffer injuries, lost income, medical bills, and pain, our Denver personal injury lawyers will stand up for your rights.
Colorado follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you can recover damages even if you were partially at fault, as long as your share of blame is not greater than the other party’s. We’ll investigate the accident, identify all liable parties, and fight for the maximum compensation available.
If you or a loved one has been injured, call us at (720) 743‑5046 or visit our contact page to request a free consultation at our Denver office located at 2806 Speer Blvd, Denver, CO 80211. Our attorneys are available 24/7 and we do not charge any fees unless we recover compensation for you.

What Is a Personal Injury?
A personal injury is any physical, mental or emotional harm you suffer because of someone else’s careless or intentional actions. It can range from sprains and broken bones to catastrophic trauma, including traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord damage. In Colorado, injured victims have the right to hold the negligent party accountable for their losses through an insurance claim or civil lawsuit.
If you’ve been hurt in a car crash, slip and fall, workplace accident, nursing home abuse, dog bite or by a defective product, our attorneys can help you understand your rights and options. We will review the circumstances of your accident, explain the applicable laws, and fight for the full compensation you deserve.
Common Causes of Personal Injury Claims
Personal injury cases arise from a wide variety of accidents and wrongful acts. Some of the most frequent causes include:
- Car and truck accidents caused by speeding, distracted driving, drunk driving and reckless motorists.
- Slip and fall accidents on unsafe premises with wet floors, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, icy sidewalks or missing handrails.
- Defective products that are dangerous due to design flaws, manufacturing errors or inadequate warnings – from consumer goods and vehicle components to pharmaceuticals and medical devices.
- Dog bites and other animal attacks where owners failed to restrain or control their pets.
- Pedestrian and bicycle accidents caused by inattentive or impaired drivers.
- Workplace accidents such as construction falls, equipment failures, or exposure to hazardous substances.
- Nursing home neglect and abuse resulting in injuries to vulnerable residents.
- Violent assaults due to negligent security in parking lots, hotels, bars and apartment complexes.
No matter how you were hurt, our lawyers will investigate the cause, identify every liable party and fight for full compensation.
Damages Available in a Personal Injury Case
A serious personal injury disrupts every part of your life. Under Colorado law, you may be entitled to recover compensation for economic and non‑economic losses, such as:
- Medical expenses: emergency transport, hospitalization, surgery, rehabilitation, physical therapy, medication and assistive devices.
- Future medical needs: long‑term care, home health services, and modifications to your home or vehicle.
- Lost wages and diminished earning capacity: wages you’ve lost while you’re unable to work and the reduction in your ability to earn income in the future.
- Pain and suffering: compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life and mental anguish.
- Property damage: repair or replacement of your vehicle or other personal property damaged in the accident.
- Disability and disfigurement: compensation for permanent impairments or scarring that affect your quality of life.
- Wrongful death damages: in fatal cases, compensation for funeral and burial expenses, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury in Denver
When most people think of personal injury compensation, they think of medical bills and lost wages — but several lesser-known forms of compensation may also apply. Our Denver personal injury attorneys work to ensure you pursue every available type of recovery under Colorado law.
What Is Pain and Suffering Compensation?
Pain and suffering compensation accounts for physical pain, emotional distress, and long-term impact on your quality of life. This form of non-economic damage can significantly increase the value of your claim.
Can I Be Compensated for Loss of Consortium?
Yes. If your injury has harmed your relationship with your spouse — such as loss of intimacy, support, or companionship — you may be eligible for loss of consortium damages. These claims are highly personal and require careful legal guidance.
What Is Loss of Enjoyment of Life?
If your injuries prevent you from enjoying hobbies, social activities, or daily tasks you once loved, you may be entitled to compensation. This includes anything from no longer being able to hike Colorado trails to missing time with loved ones.
Can I Recover Punitive Damages?
Punitive damages are awarded in cases involving egregious misconduct or reckless behavior. While not common, they can apply in DUI crashes or other cases where the defendant acted with blatant disregard for safety.
What If I Have Future Medical Costs?
Many injuries require long-term care, physical therapy, or future surgeries. Our team works with medical professionals to calculate and pursue compensation for all anticipated future expenses.
Can I Be Compensated for Disfigurement or Disability?
Absolutely. Visible scarring, permanent disability, or loss of bodily function are grounds for significant compensation — especially when they impact your career or confidence. We build strong evidence to support these claims.
Will Compensation Cover Assistive Devices or Home Modifications?
Yes. If your injuries require mobility aids (like wheelchairs or prosthetics), home ramps, or vehicle modifications, we will fight to recover those costs as part of your case.

Why You Should Avoid Representing Yourself in a Denver Personal Injury Case
Handling a personal injury claim on your own may seem like a way to save money, but it often leads to costly mistakes. Insurance companies have teams of adjusters and attorneys whose job is to limit your payout. Without legal representation, you may miss out on the full compensation you deserve. At Strong Law, we’ve secured millions for clients and maintain a 98% success rate — and we’re here to fight for your rights.
What If You Undervalue Your Claim?
One of the most common pitfalls is underestimating your case’s value. Compensation should cover current and future medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term impacts. Insurance companies may offer a quick settlement that seems fair — but likely won’t account for your total losses. A skilled Denver personal injury attorney ensures nothing is left on the table.
Do You Have the Right Evidence to Prove Fault?
Successful personal injury claims require clear evidence — including medical records, police reports, witness statements, and expert analysis. Without it, insurers may argue you’re partially at fault or that your injuries are unrelated. Our legal team knows how to gather, organize, and present evidence in a way that strengthens your claim from day one.
What If the Insurance Company Denies Your Claim?
Insurers often deny or delay claims for those without legal counsel. They may question the severity of your injuries, dispute coverage, or blame paperwork errors. We know their tactics — and how to fight back. With Strong Law on your side, you won’t face these battles alone.
Can You Negotiate a Fair Settlement?
Insurance adjusters are trained to settle for the least amount possible. Without legal experience, it’s easy to accept an offer that doesn’t reflect the full value of your case. Worse, most settlements are final — once accepted, you can’t go back for more if complications arise. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who won’t back down until you’re properly compensated.
What If the Case Goes to Court?
If negotiations fail, you may need to file a lawsuit. Court cases involve complex procedures, strict deadlines, and trial preparation. A misstep could delay your case or hurt your chances of winning. Our trial-ready attorneys handle every aspect — from filing motions to arguing in front of a jury.
