What You Should Do
If you are involved in an auto accident in Colorado, these are the things you need to do as soon as possible.
- Get the name and address of the person who caused the accident. They are legally obligated to supply you with this information.
- Contact an attorney who is trained and experienced in dealing with auto accidents and personal injury caused by this type of accident. Your attorney will know what compensation you deserve and will take care of the paperwork and necessary payments on your behalf. Your attorney will also deal with the insurance companies, their adjustors and any lawyers working for the at-fault driver or their insurance company.
- Report the auto accident to the Motor Vehicle Division. This makes it easier for your lawyer to check accident reports.
What Your are Entitled To
As of July 2003, some new laws governing Colorado auto accidents have been put into play. Be sure your lawyer is well versed in all of the new laws. For example, the financial cost for an auto accident in the state of Colorado is the responsibility of the insurance company that covers the driver who is at fault. That driver is responsible for your losses and expenses concerning the following:
- Medical expenses
- Loss of wages, including overtime
- Injuries
- Repair costs
If your auto accident with another at-fault driver has caused you injury, then you are also entitled to file a personal injury case against the other driver. Under personal injury law, you are entitled to be reimbursed for all of the above expenses, as well as:
- Pain and suffering
- Physical or mental disability
- Emotional trauma
- Embarrassment and humiliation
- Mental anguish
- Disfigurement
- Permanent scars
- Loss of enjoyment
- Loss of love and affection
- Out of pocket expenses relating to the accident
- Loss of home services, such as inability to maintain the upkeep of your home
