Auto Accident Lawyers - FAQs

in Denver and Aurora, Colorado

1. I've been in an auto accident. What should I do?

   First, call the police. Next, admit no fault whatsoever. Also, sign nothing from the insurance company.

   If you've already been through the immediate aftermath of the accident, and are either at home or in the hospital, the best thing to do is to call our Colorado auto accident lawyer immediately. Once we understand the specifics of your situation, we'll be able to help protect your rights.

2. But I've already talked to my insurance company - why should I hire a lawyer?

   Your insurance company usually has their best interests in mind, not yours. Their claims adjustors are encouraged to settle claims as quickly and cheaply as possible. This can result in your not receiving a fair settlement - in fact, you may receive a settlement far less than what you may deserve. That's where having a lawyer on your side can make all the difference.

3. How do I know if I have a case worth pursuing?

   When you have been injured through no fault of your own, you must file a lawsuit in order to seek financial restitution from the other party (or parties) or their insurance company. In order to win your case, you must prove negligence on the part of the other driver.

   Proving negligence is a specific legal matter, and best undertaken with an experienced lawyer on your side. If you've been injured in an auto accident, contact the Brake Law Firm today. Once we understand the specifics of your situation will we be able to determine if you have a case.

   If you are accused of causing an accident, and are being sued and/or charged with a crime, you definitely need a lawyer on your side to help protect your rights.

4. Will I have to go to court?

   Most non-criminal legal matters are resolved through negotiation, not trial. However, if your case does go to trial, you will have to appear in court. But don't worry - we'll be with you every step of the way. In fact, we at the Brake Law Firm have extensive trial experience.

   In many legal matters, having an experienced auto accident lawyer on your side, even during negotiation procedures, is a great benefit. If the other party is aware that you and your lawyer aren't afraid to go to court, it can greatly influence the negotiation process. It often leads to a faster, larger settlement, without trial.
