Boulder Personal Injury Lawyers
A personal injury is any injury you sustain as a result of someone else’s negligence. The injuries and damages sustained in your accident can be physical, financial, and emotional — you may be eligible to claim compensation for many of these damages. Personal injury lawsuits help victims of negligence in Boulder collect the compensation they need to recover from their injuries. If you have recently suffered an injury due to someone else’s actions, you may qualify for these compensatory damages — but navigating this process can be difficult without an attorney on your side.
Many types of accidents can involve personal injuries, but the prevailing thread between all successful personal injury cases is a breach of duty of care by the at-fault party.
The attorneys at Jordan Law have significant experience representing clients in Boulder and beyond in each of these practice areas, along with many more. We understand the strategies and processes necessary to help you obtain maximum possible compensation.
How To Choose The Right Personal Injury Lawyer
“Attorneys who take cases all the way to trial get better settlement results in the cases that don’t need to go trial. This is because the insurance companies know the firm is willing to go to court if needed. Insurance companies don’t want to take that risk and leave it to a jury to possibly award the victim a huge settlement.
Your case most likely won’t need to go to trial but make sure you ask any attorney you’re interviewing about their trial experience. You’d be shocked how many lawyers don’t ever go to trial.”

How Our Boulder Injury Lawyers Can Help You
At Jordan Law, we know how overwhelming an injury accident can be. That’s why our attorneys work hard to guide you through every step of the process. Here’s how we help:
- Investigate the Accident: We gather evidence like police reports, photos, and witness statements to build your case.
- Negotiate with the Insurance Company: Insurance companies often try to pay less than you deserve. We fight for a fair settlement.
- We will represent you in court. If we can’t reach a fair settlement, we will take your case to trial and advocate for your rights.
- Provide Support: Beyond legal help, we’re here to answer your questions and provide guidance during a difficult time.
What Must I Do to Receive Compensation for an Injury Case?
To win an injury case, you need to prove that someone else acted negligently, which means that someone else was at fault. Negiglence has four main elements:
1. Duty
The at-fault party had a responsibility to keep others safe. For example, drivers must follow traffic laws.
2. Breach
The at-fault party didn’t follow their duty. For instance, they might have run a red light or left a slippery floor unmarked.
3. Causation
Their actions directly caused your injury.
4. Damages
You suffered harm because of the accident, like medical expenses or lost income.
In Colorado, contributory negligence means you can still recover compensation if you’re partly at fault—as long as you’re less than 50% responsible.
Who Is Responsible for My Injuries?
Liability depends on the type of accident. For example:
- In a car crash, the driver who caused the accident is usually responsible. If the driver is insured, the driver’s insurance company should pay for your injuries. However if the driver is on-the-clock, the employer could be liable for certain types of accidents.
- In a slip-and-fall case, the property owner might be liable if they didn’t fix a hazard.
- In dog bite cases, the owner of the dog is responsible for the acts of his or her pet.
Our team will investigate your case to identify all responsible parties.
What Compensation Can I Receive in an Injury Case?
The compensation you may recover includes:
- Medical bills
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Emotional distress
What Are the Potential Sources of Recovery?
By now you probably have an idea of who is responsible for your injuries. However, where exactly does the compensation can come from?
- Insurance policies (like auto or homeowners’ insurance) pay for the damages in most personal injury cases.
- The at-fault party’s personal assets
- Workers’ compensation (in job-related injuries)
