You Need A Denver Car Accident Attorney Who Will Fight for You
Most car accident claims don’t go to trial. Most of the time, the insurance company will reach a settlement with the injured party. Unfortunately, the insurance company will usually make a lowball offer. These settlements don’t cover all the expenses resulting from a crash.
Car crash expenses can be significant. You could require medical treatment and have extensive medical bills. You may also have property damage such as car repairs, which could cost thousands. You could even have several weeks of rehab like physical or psychological therapy.
Auto accident lawyers can help you recover an average of three times more money compared to someone who doesn’t hire an attorney. This is because the insurance company knows how to manipulate you into settling for less.
For this reason, you need to hire a Jordan Law car accident lawyer. Our lawyers will fight for you and get you the compensation you deserve.
You need a car accident attorney who:
- Has achieved payouts for their clients. Jordan Law has won over $500M in verdicts and settlements for Denver personal injury victims.
- Will communicate with you to keep you updated on your case. As you pursue justice and compensation after your car crash, you want to stay informed. The lawyers at Jordan Law will keep you informed at every stage of your claim.
“The number one way law firms get fired is lack of communication. We don’t have that problem.” – Jason Jordan, Managing Partner
- Has experience in the courtroom. You might be surprised to learn that many lawyers never see the inside of a courtroom because they settle all their cases. The insurance companies know the firms that will go to court if necessary. This reputation allows those firms get better results for their clients at the settlement stage.
- Is ready to start fighting for you without delay. After your accident, you need someone who takes immediate action so you don’t have to. Jordan Law is ready to put our best lawyers on your case today.
“Jordan Law is truly incredible. They are a professional group of people that always showed me the utmost respect. I was treated like family and am proud to say they really changed my life. Thank you Jason, Laura, and staff for representing me in such a difficult time!” -Will J.
How Do You Know If You Have A Car Accident Case?
If your car accident seems minor, it may not seem like you need to get a car accident lawyer. You might wonder: “Is it worth getting a lawyer for a car accident? The insurance company seems to be taking care of me and I’ve always paid my premiums.”
That’s exactly what insurance companies want you to think.
Insurance companies search for any reason to deny your claim – and they find them.
While denial rates vary by insurer, one report found ACA plan denials were as high as 49%. If you’re vulnerable, they will strike and leave you penniless while you’re still in pain.
If you need money to help get your life back together after your accident, you need a car accident lawyer.
Even if you don’t think you’ll need cash, you probably will. Immediately after your motor vehicle accident, you will not be thinking clearly. PTSD takes time to set in. So does whiplash, which you may not feel until 1-3 days after your accident.
Jordan Law are ready to help you achieve your full and fair compensation. Contact us today to set up your free consultation.
We also represent auto accident victims in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Greeley, Longmont, Loveland, Larimer County, Weld County, and Boulder County.

I Was Just in a Car Crash. What Should I Do?
If you’ve just been in a car crash, breathe. You have a short but crucial list of tasks to accomplish.
Here’s What to Do After a Denver Car Crash
Call for medical attention. Your adrenaline surges after an accident, making it easy to ignore severe injuries. Internal bleeding may not feel like anything at first, but can become life-threatening within 6 hours.
Call 911 immediately. Even if you are unharmed, getting an immediate medical record helps your case.
Document everything. After you’ve called for support, take out your phone and take pictures of the scene. Record any injuries, damages to your vehicle, the other driver’s auto insurance, and the events leading to the incident.
Talk to witnesses, get their contact information, and exchange insurance details. Don’t assume you’ll remember anything.
Don’t apologize. Avoid taking ownership of the accident, apologizing, or saying anything implying your responsibility for what happened.
Don’t deny your need for medical attention, even if you feel fine. If anyone requests responses, direct them to your car accident lawyer.
Contact your lawyer. Hire a skilled car accident lawyer before you file an insurance claim or a police report. Doing this can greatly increase your chances of success from the beginning.
Plus, the insurance company will likely recognize your representation. As a result, they will treat you differently than if you were handling this solo.
Call your insurance company. Your lawyer will handle this or prep you to ensure you don’t accidentally say anything that could help your insurance company deny your claim.
“Working with us, you’re going to get a firm that pretty much everybody in the state respects. That matters because the insurance carriers know who we are. They know that we try cases. They know that we win cases. The value of our clients’ cases are typically higher because of that.” – JASON JORDAN
Should I File a Police Report?
It can be tempting to shy away from making things official with the authorities. Filing a police report is a crucial part of your claim.
Here’s why:
- A police report constitutes an official accident record. It includes important details such as the location and time of the accident, the parties involved, and witness statements.
- Liability determination. A police report can be a key piece of evidence helping demonstrate who is responsible for the car accident.
- Legal protection. Filing a police report immediately after the accident helps establish that you took the appropriate steps to resolve your case. It won’t look like you were avoiding responsibility or hiding any information, which can protect you later on.
Insurance representatives, other involved drivers, or even the police can tell you that filing a report isn’t necessary. Don’t listen to them.
“We saw a case where the defendant told the victim, “Oh, don’t call the police – we’ll take care of it.” So the victim skipped the police report. Then, later, the defendant changed their tune: They were suddenly saying they weren’t at fault. Now there’s no police report, and it’s a much tougher case than it otherwise would have been.” – Jason Jordan, Managing Partner
File a police report as soon as possible after the accident, or ask us for help completing this essential task.
Car Accident FAQs
Should you get a lawyer after a minor car accident?
Yes, you should get a lawyer after a minor car accident. Will you require resources to pay for any damages, time off work, or medical attention you need post-accident? Then you need a lawyer.
At Jordan Law, we don’t believe there are minor car accident cases. It’s easy to underestimate how much a “minor” car accident can change your life. Talk to us in an initial free consultation to learn more.
Do you need an attorney for a car accident settlement?
The short answer is: Yes, you do you need an attorney for a car accident settlement.
Chances are, you’ve never negotiated a car accident settlement before.
Your insurance company will know this, and try to get you to settle for a lowball offer. A $15,000.00 settlement may sound nice when you’re in the hospital, but when the bills start reaching $100K (or higher), it’ll be clear that insurance wasn’t acting in your best interest.
How do you know if you’re getting what you deserve, or if you’re leaving money on the table for the insurance company to keep in their pockets?
An attorney can make sure your settlement or court award includes appropriate compensation for your medical bills, car repairs, and other financial repercussions if your accident is complex.
Your car accident lawyers can help make sure your interests are protected no matter what happens.

Why You Shouldn't Handle Your Car Accident Claim On Your Own
“I have people tell me all the time, ‘I’ve been dealing with this insurance company for 20 years and they’ve always treated me great.’ And I say, ‘Have you ever made a claim?’ and they say, ‘no.’ Well, ok, so the person who has been taking your money has been treating you great. Not surprising. Wait till you go to the claims department. You’re not dealing with the sales person anymore. You’re dealing with the people who pay the money out. Not surprisingly, they may not treat you very well.”
