Maximizing Compensation for Bus Accident Victims in Colorado
At Cave Law, we understand that Colorado laws surrounding bus accidents can be complex and overwhelming. However, they are essential in determining liability and the compensation you may be entitled to. Here’s how we navigate these laws to maximize your compensation:
In-Depth Understanding of Colorado Laws
Our attorneys have an in-depth understanding of Colorado’s specific laws and regulations governing bus accidents. This includes knowledge of the state’s comparative negligence law, which allows victims to recover damages even if they are partially at fault if they are less than 50% responsible for the accident.
Identifying All Liable Parties
Colorado law allows for multiple parties to be held liable in a bus accident. This could include the bus driver, bus company, other drivers, government entities, or manufacturers of faulty bus parts. We conduct a thorough investigation to identify all liable parties to increase potential sources of compensation.
Maximizing Damages
We work diligently to ensure that all damages are accounted for. This includes not just medical expenses and lost wages but also non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded as a punishment to the responsible party.
Statute of Limitations
In Colorado, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit can be as short as two years from the date of the accident. Also, governmental immunity statutes only provide 180 days to give proper notice, otherwise, you forever lose your claim. We ensure that all legal actions are taken promptly so that you don’t lose your right to compensation due to time constraints.
Negotiation with Insurance Companies
Insurance companies often try to minimize payouts. Armed with a strong understanding of Colorado laws, we negotiate aggressively with insurance companies to ensure you receive the maximum compensation you deserve.
