What to Expect During the Case 

As your Lakewood drunk driving accident lawyer, we know that your case revolves around negligence. Colorado use 50%  modified comparative negligence, which means that we must prove that you were not 50% or more at fault or more for the accident to seek damages.

If your injuries are minor, we may be able to negotiate with insurance companies and reach a settlement that we believe is fair.

However, justice may require us to:

• File a lawsuit
• Pursue damages from multiple parties
• Go to trial

Most cases settle out of court, but we still need to prove negligence. We will build a strong case against the defendant with the help of police reports, BAC test results, toxicologists, medical specialists and even accident reconstruction experts.

While we handle the nuances and legal aspects of your case, we always keep you informed along the way.

Can I File a Claim If the Driver Is Not Convicted of a DUI?

In the state of Colorado, victims who are injured by an intoxicated driver still have the right to file a claim, even if the driver is not convicted of a DUI.

A conviction can strengthen your claim and help prove negligence, but it’s not a requirement.

There may be other evidence of negligence that can be used to support your claim if the other party is not convicted.
