⚖️ Colorado Personal Injury Law Guide

If you were injured in Colorado (in cities like Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins), your claim is governed by local statutes and fault rules:

  • Statute of Limitations: You have 2 years (3 years for motor vehicle accidents) from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim in court.
  • Shared Fault System: Colorado uses the Modified Comparative Negligence (50% bar) standard. Colorado utilizes a 50% bar comparative negligence rule. You can recover damages only if your fault is less than 50%. Your payout is reduced by your fault percentage.
  • Damage Caps: Colorado caps non-economic damages. The cap is inflation-adjusted and sits around $600,000 (can be raised by the court to approx. $1.2M with clear evidence). Medical malpractice non-economic damages are capped at $300,000, with a hard cap on total damages of $1 million.
