Seeking Justice and Fair Compensation with a Colorado Catastrophic Injury Lawyer
As your healing begins, you’ll need resources to support your recovery and ensure your family is safe and healthy. Colorado catastrophic injury attorneys have the knowledge and experience necessary to navigate the legal process ahead – and to help you pursue the compensation you deserve. Any severe injury that results in long-term (or even permanent) disabilities or requires extensive treatment and rehabilitation can be classified as catastrophic.
In our years of supporting Colorado catastrophic injury victims, we’ve seen the following:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
- Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI)
- Severe Burn Injuries
- Loss of Limbs or Amputations
- Multiple Fractures and Orthopedic Injuries
If you or a loved one has sustained any of these injuries, your life will change forever. You need help as you start your path toward recovery. Call (303) 465-8733, and we’ll discuss your next steps in a free consultation with experienced Denver catastrophic injury lawyers.
What are the Long-Term Consequences and Challenges Associated with Catastrophic Injury?
The practical repercussions of catastrophic injuries can be overwhelming, but it’s important to know what you’re dealing with. That will give you a good sense of the resources you and your family will need going forward.
In our practice, we’ve supported victims of catastrophic injuries through:
- Physical impairments, such as paralysis, chronic pain, and loss of limb function
- Psychological and emotional trauma, ranging from PTSD to depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders
- Loss of earning capacity or income, which can completely change a victim’s life
- Changes in relationships and social life, whether due to psychological injury or mobility limitations (or other challenges)
- Managing the need for ongoing medical support, from chronic, expensive therapies to in-home care, regular checkups, and lifelong medication
- Reduced quality of life! All of the above, in addition to other limitations, expenses, and stressors, can seriously diminish the quality of life for you and your loved ones.
If you can pursue compensation through a catastrophic injury claim, you’ll be able to alleviate some of these burdens.
Jordan Law is ready to help. Call (303) 465-8733 today, and we’ll schedule your free catastrophic injury consultation.
The Importance of Rehabilitation and Long-Term Care for Catastrophic Injuries
One of the aspects we see many people overlook is the likelihood of extensive rest, recovery, and rehabilitation expenses for these types of injuries.
Post-injury care may be explicitly necessary – say, if you or your loved one is paralyzed. Alternatively, post-injury care may not seem necessary, but could be the ticket to avoiding permanent disfigurement or dysfunction.
After your injury, we recommend consulting with your physician about the need for ongoing care upfront. It’s far better to know if your injury necessitates specialized care, adaptive equipment, or other types of support up front.
And, if you do need this type of assistance, you may be able to pursue more compensation to fund your rehabilitation costs.
Your Path to Filing a Catastrophic Injury Claim in Colorado
After your injury, you and your loved ones will spend significant time in the hospital. All you will want – or be able! – to focus is on your rest and recovery.
However, since the Colorado statute of limitations only allows you two years to file a personal injury claim, you must get moving with your case.
While you heal, your catastrophic personal injury lawyers at Jordan Law will work to:
- Investigate your case by gathering evidence, examining relevant records, collecting witness statements, and analyzing the circumstances around your incident
- Establish liability based on what we’ve learned so we know who to pursue damages from as we progress toward your claim
- Uncover the role of negligence by assessing the actions (or inactions) of involved parties to determine if there was a duty of care, and if that duty was breached
- Collaborate with medical professionals to ensure you receive adequate care and to fully understand the extent of your damages
- Consult accident reconstruction experts to learn what happened to cause your injury and strengthen your case during negotiations or litigation
- Litigate your case, if needed. Although negotiations may be enough to help you obtain the compensation you deserve, you may need to take a firmer approach.
Many catastrophic loss injury attorneys veer clear of the courtroom, because litigating a case takes a lot of time and resources. But, at Jordan Law, we know that litigation is often vital in getting you the money you need – especially when your injuries are more severe.
We’ll examine your case from every angle, pursue negotiations to their fullest extent, and be ready to go to court if that’s truly what’s best in your case.
“Working with us, you’re going to get a firm that pretty much everybody in the state respects. The judges respect us. We’ve had, you know, a pretty good reputation for a long time now. And I think that, you know, that speaks for itself.” – JASON JORDAN

Catastrophic Accident FAQs
How Do I Know if My Injuries Are Catastrophic?
It can be hard to accurately assess the severity of your own injuries. Here’s one rule of thumb: When your future, life, ability to use your limbs, or ability to earn a living are affected by your injury, it’s catastrophic.
(Note that it’s better to assume the worst until proven otherwise, instead of downplaying potentially life-changing injuries.)
A catastrophic injury will typically result in a significant cognitive or physical impairment that directly impacts your life and future. By consulting with a catastrophic injury lawyer, you can understand more about your case and work toward the compensation you deserve.
How Long Will It Take to Resolve My Catastrophic Injury Claim?
Resolving your catastrophic injury claim can take months.
The activities we’ve mentioned above – gathering evidence, determining liability, negotiating with insurers, and even going to court, if necessary – can take a long time to do well.
“Preparing for trial is a lot of work. I love being in the courtroom, but getting there takes time. The average case, the average client that you got coming in is looking at between 6 to 12 months.” JASON JORDAN
And, as the Colorado personal injury statute of limitation only gives you two years from your date of injury to work with, you’ll need to get started quickly. Call (303) 465-8733 today, and we’ll set up your free consultation at once.
