Denver Personal Injury Lawyer

Getting injured due to someone else’s negligence can be a deeply distressing experience. Whether you have been involved in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or are dealing with the aftermath of a dog bite, we recognize the unique hardships you are facing. Insurance companies often place their interests over providing fair compensation, leaving injured individuals feeling powerless and overlooked.

The experienced personal injury attorneys at Smith & Weidinger have your back. Instead, we carefully build a robust claim during the pre-litigation phase backed by compelling evidence and utilizing our extensive network within insurance circles and our knowledge of Denver personal injury laws.

Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Denver

The lawyers at Smith & Weidinger are well-versed in handling a wide range of personal injury claims to ensure that our clients in Denver receive the dedicated legal representation they deserve. Some of the types of personal injury claims we handle include:

Car Accidents

Whether you have been injured in a sideswipe or rear-end car accident or a severe head-on collision, our experienced Denver personal injury lawyers will fight for your rights and help you pursue fair compensation for your injuries and damages. Our attorneys are skilled at reconstructing car accidents to determine fault and liability. We work with accident reconstruction experts and medical professionals to assess your injuries and their impact on your life. We will negotiate with insurance companies to ensure you receive compensation for medical expenses, vehicle repairs, and lost wages.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are particularly vulnerable on the road. An experienced Denver personal injury lawyer will know how to deal with biases against motorcyclists. Most insurance companies will try to blame you. With a deep understanding of motorcycle laws and safety regulations, we can ensure fair personal injury settlements. We will work to demonstrate the extent of your injuries and the financial impact of the accident, recovering compensation for medical bills, motorcycle repairs, and pain and suffering.

Truck Accidents

Truck accidents can result in devastating injuries due to the sheer size and weight of commercial vehicles. These accidents often involve complex liability issues and multiple parties. Our Colorado personal injury lawyers have the resources to conduct thorough investigations and hold negligent trucking companies accountable. We will fight for full compensation for your injuries, including ongoing medical care, lost earning capacity, and emotional distress from commercial vehicle accidents.

Rideshare Accidents

If you have been injured while using a rideshare service like Uber or Lyft, the legal process can be challenging. Rideshare companies and their insurers often employ teams of defense lawyers dedicated to minimizing payouts to claimants. However, our attorneys are undeterred by their tactics. We will vigorously stand up for your rights and pursue every avenue to ensure you receive the full and fair compensation you are entitled to.

Bicycle Accidents

Cyclists are often at risk of serious injuries when sharing the road with motor vehicles. If you have been injured in a bicycle accident, our attorneys will work diligently to protect your rights and pursue maximum compensation for your injuries. We will work to prove negligence on the part of the driver and obtain compensation for your injuries, bicycle repairs, and pain and suffering. Our goal is to help you recover physically, emotionally, and financially.

Pedestrian Accidents

Our attorneys understand the unique vulnerabilities of pedestrians and the devastating consequences of being struck by a vehicle. Injured pedestrians often face challenges in proving liability and obtaining compensation for their injuries after being struck by a vehicle. Our attorneys are accomplished at gathering compelling evidence, including witness statements and surveillance footage, to establish liability and hold the at-fault driver accountable.

Premises Liability

Property owners have a duty to maintain safe premises for visitors. If visitors are injured in slip and fall accidents due to unsafe conditions on someone else's property, we will hold the property owner accountable for their injuries. Our goal is to ensure that negligent property owners are held responsible for their actions. We will recover compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, and any other damages you have suffered.

Wrongful Death

Losing a loved one due to someone else's negligence is a devastating experience. Our compassionate attorneys provide support and legal guidance to families pursuing wrongful death claims, allowing them to focus on emotional healing. Our goal is to obtain maximum financial compensation as per Colorado Revised Statutes §13-21-202 for your family's loss, including funeral expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Dog Bites

Dog owners are responsible for controlling their pets and preventing them from causing harm to others. If you have been bitten or attacked by a dog, our attorneys will fight to ensure you receive compensation for your injuries, including medical treatment, scarring and disfigurement, and psychological counseling.

Contact us today to discuss your case and learn how we can help you obtain the compensation you need for your injuries and losses. Our Denver personal injury lawyers operate on a contingency basis. This means that you won't pay any fees unless we obtain a successful outcome for your personal injury case. In fact, our fees are set lower than the industry standard. We know our clients need the compensation to move forward with their lives and hence make sure they retain a larger portion. This is what makes us the best personal injury lawyer in Denver, CO.

Denver’s Comparative Negligence Rules and Statute of Limitations

Under Colorado Revised Statutes §13-21-111, an insurance company can reduce the monetary compensation you are due depending on your percentage of fault. Further, if you are found to be 50% or more at fault, the insurance company is within its rights to deny the personal injury claim altogether.

We are not afraid to take on insurance companies or other formidable opponents, fighting tooth and nail to prove the liability of the defendants and recover the full compensation you are entitled to. With an extensive network within insurance companies, we don’t shy away from using our connections to obtain a more favorable outcome for our clients.

The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Denver is typically two years from the date of the injury. While there are exceptions to this general rule, we recommend that you consult our personal injury law firm as soon as possible. Smith & Weidinger can make sure you don’t miss any deadlines or jeopardize your chances of recovering full and fair compensation.
