Bus Accident Victims Can Recover Economic and Non-Economic Damages

The aftermath of an accident can be traumatic and confusing. It can also be costly and require legal intervention to recover damages from the at-fault party. After a bus accident, you can request the economic damages that would otherwise come out of your pocket. These include:

• Past, current, and future medical bills
• Past, current, and future income loss
• Loss of future earning ability
• Property damage or total loss
• Diminished property value

You can also recover non-economic damages. These can be harder to assess and document and usually include:

• Impairment and disfigurement
• Physical pain and suffering
• Mental and emotional anguish
• Loss of enjoyment of life

Our case assessment team will compile the bills and receipts proving your economic damages’ value. We also collect tangible proof of the value of your intangible damages. 

We Support Colorado Springs Families Seeking Wrongful Death Damages

The loss of a loved one in an unexpected accident can leave you in sudden financial distress. When our wrongful death attorneys represent your Colorado Springs family, we pursue the following damages:

• The costs of the decedent’s funeral and burial 
• Loss of the decedent’s financial support
• Loss of the decedent’s domestic services
• Loss of consortium, companionship, and care

While we know nothing can atone for your loss, we fight hard to recover the financial compensation your family needs and deserves. You have our deepest condolences along with our commitment to represent your family with kindness and compassion.

We Can Help You Understand the Statute of Limitations in Colorado

The statute of limitations in Colorado can be hard to understand and difficult to comply with on your own. In general:

• You have three years to file your personal injury lawsuit, according to CO. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-101.
• You have two years to file your wrongful death lawsuit, according to CO. Rev. Stat. § 13-80-102.

The injured party’s age and other factors that could alter the statute of limitations can make it hard to comply. The best way to handle it is to let our law firm interpret it for you. You could have additional notification and filing deadlines to meet if your accident involved a city or transit bus.

A Bus Accident in Colorado Springs Can Have More Than One At-Fault Party

When you are ready to claim injury compensation for a bus accident, you must prove it was caused by negligence. Our bus accident lawyers in Colorado Springs will establish the legal elements of negligence, including:

• Duty of care
• Breach of duty
• Causation
• Damages

How We Build a Case File That Proves Financial Liability for Your Accident

Your case file is made up of all the evidence we collect to show the cause and effect of your accident. It will identify the at-fault party, their insurance company, and the negligence that entitles you to compensation. 

The case file we build will include:

• Medical records
• Medical bills
• Proof of income
• Photos and videos
• Police report
• First responder report
• Witness statements
• Expert testimonials

Leave evidence collection to us. We compile, sort and organize it, and submit it to the at-fault party and their insurer on your behalf. We also collect evidence that might be emotionally challenging or hard to obtain.
