Cases We Accept

  • Auto Accidents – If you sustained injuries in an automobile accident that wasn’t your fault, you can seek compensation for your damages. Veritas will work with the insurance agencies, other driver(s) involved, and field experts to pinpoint who is liable for the accident and seek compensation accordingly. 
  • Catastrophic Injuries - Injuries that permanently alter your life and/or leave you suffering with lifelong repercussions are considered to be catastrophic in nature. We represent victims suffering from brain injuries, burn injuries, spinal injuries, and more. 
  • Premises Liability Cases – Property owners are legally responsible for maintaining the safety of their premises, and for warning visitors of unsafe or hazardous conditions. When an accident and injury occur due to a property owner’s failure to protect invited guests, victims can seek legal retribution through a premises liability claim. 
  • Skiing Accidents – Victims of skiing accidents that resulted from negligent or reckless behaviors can pursue compensation through a personal injury claim or lawsuit. Veritas accepts cases involving faulty equipment, poor maintenance of ski lifts and resort amenities, failure to practice and/or enforce safe skiing practices, and more. 
  • Workers' Compensation - If you find yourself injured at work, filing for workers' compensation may be the right route for you. However, if a third-party was responsible for your workplace incident, it may be in your best interests to instead pursue compensation through a personal injury claim to maximize your payout on damages. Veritas can review the circumstances of your injury and help determine which avenue to pursue. 
  • Wrongful Death - Unlike most injury claims, a wrongful death lawsuit is not filed by the victim but instead brought forth by their surviving family members or estate. The purpose of this type of claim is to seek damages for all losses stemming from the decedent's passing, both physical and emotional. This includes financial compensation for any loved ones who have suffered distress due to their loss. A wrongful death suit grants relief to those affected by such an unexpected tragedy and serves as an essential form of justice in these difficult times.

How Personal Injury Lawsuits Work in Colorado 

Personal injury lawsuits can be complex, especially if there are multiple parties involved. In order to receive compensation, victims must show that another party’s negligence or intentional action caused injury or other damages. This is accomplished by filing a suit and providing evidence that proves the injury resulted from third-party negligence. It is important to have the legal assistance of an experienced attorney who can help guide you through this process. 

In Colorado, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of injury. This means you must file a lawsuit within two years of the date of the accident, or the onset of injuries, or risk losing the right to sue and receive compensation for damages altogether. It is important to note that these time frames may vary depending on circumstances, so it’s important to involve an Eagle County personal injury lawyer in the matter as soon as possible. 

At Veritas, we work to ensure that injury victims receive the compensation they deserve for their injury-related damages, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Stay In The Know

  • How Much Time Do I Have to File an Auto Accident Lawsuit?
    In most cases, you have around three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. The deadline can be prolonged if you discovered the injury later. If you are planning to sue a government establishment, you may be required to file a claim within a few months after the accident.
  • If the Accident Was Somewhat My Fault, Can I Still Win My Case?
    Yes. However, you may not win the maximum possible settlement amount. Under Colorado's fault principles, your damages will be decreased in proportion to your fault. So, if you were 30% at fault, then your damages would be reduced by that amount in the claims. Keep in mind that the court determines fault.
  • What Is the Required Minimum Auto Insurance In Colorado?
    Legal auto insurance coverage is: $25,000 per injured victim $15,000 minimum in property damage $50,000 per accident, no matter how many victims have been affected Since Colorado is a "fault" state, this means you can file a claim against the defendant driver's insurance carrier. However, if the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, there are steps you can take to get around that.
