What Is a Car Accident Case?

Everyone know what a car accident is, but what is a car accident case? A car accident lawyer represents someone who was hurt in a car accident because of another person’s negligence. Negligence means someone failed to act in a way that they should have.

Our job is to prove that the other driver was responsible for the accident and to help you get paid for your injuries and losses.

What Do I Need To Do To Receive Compensation for a Car Accident Case?

To receive compensation, we need to prove that the other driver was negligent. In Colorado, you must show four key things to win your case:

  1. Duty: The other driver had a responsibility to follow the rules of the road.
  2. Breach: They didn’t follow those rules.
  3. Causation: Their actions caused the accident.
  4. Damages: You were hurt or suffered losses because of the accident.

Colorado also has a rule called contributory negligence. This means if you are partly at fault for the accident, your compensation might be reduced. If you are more than 50% at fault, you may not be able to recover anything.

Who Is Responsible for My Injuries?

Liability means who is at fault for the accident. In most car accident cases, the at-fault driver is responsible for paying for damages. But sometimes, other parties may be liable, such as the car manufacturer if there was a defect, or even the city if poor road conditions contributed to the crash.

What Compensation Can I Receive in a Car Accident Case?

If you’ve been in a car accident, you may be able to receive compensation for:

  • Medical bills
  • Lost wages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Damage to your car

What Are the Potential Sources of Recovery?

There are different sources where you can recover compensation after a car accident:

  1. The At-Fault Driver‘s Insurance: This is the main source of recovery for most people.
  2. Your Own Insurance: If the at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance, your policy may cover some of your damages.
  3. Other Parties: In some cases, other drivers, companies, or entities may be liable.

Aurora Car Accident FAQs

What’s my case worth?

The value of your case depends on the severity of your injuries and how much the accident has impacted your life. We’ll help you calculate all your losses, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Will my case go to trial?

Most car accident cases are settled before trial, but we’re ready to go to court if necessary to fight for your rights.

If the other driver doesn’t have insurance, you may still be able to recover from your own insurance policy, such as uninsured motorist coverage.

How long will my case take?

Every case is different, but car accident claims can take anywhere from a few months to over a year, depending on the complexity of the case.
