Brighton Personal Injury Attorneys
Our personal injury lawyers have worked with Brighton residents who have been injured due to the fault of another. When a person is involved in an accident, there are many damaging and harmful occurrences that may take place, above and beyond the accident itself. Some include:
- Medical care and bills
- Lost income
- Lost property
- Loss of job
- Loss of future income
- Pain and suffering
- And more
We understand the toll an accident can take on a person and we want to provide the legal support necessary to ensure your rights are taken into account. When another person or entity is negligent and causes you harm, you don’t have to go up against them alone, nor should you be the only one suffering the consequences.
Hull & Zimmerman knows Colorado personal injury law, and we will help you get financial compensation for the damage you’ve encountered, allowing you to concentrate on your swift recovery.
Should You Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?
In a perfect world, the careless or reckless actions of another would not hinder or injure you; however, we don’t live in that world. The next best thing is to ensure those negligent are held accountable, and that’s where we come in.
Our injury attorneys are skilled and knowledgeable, and determined to get you the damages you’re entitled to. We know what it takes to win a case. We are happy to meet with you and determine the best and quickest steps to take for your individual matter.
Hiring a proficient personal injury attorney will ensure your case is filed correctly, on time, and that all necessary documents, witnesses, and analyses are handled the right way.
Dealing With Your Accident
We work with various clients who suffer from various accidents and injuries. Each has its own set of circumstances but can usually be handled through a series of general steps.
What To Do After Your Vehicle Accident
Brighton has a sweet, small-town vibe and lots of historical roots that people gravitate to; it’s also known for its lower tax bracket. It’s for these reasons that we’ve seen an uptick in population over the years. More people means more auto accidents.
If you have been involved in a collision, your health and safety come first. If you are seriously injured, wait for the EMT or ambulance. Keep in mind that you may have injuries that you don’t immediately notice or recognize. If an EMT comes to the scene, have them examine you even if you don’t think it’s necessary.
If you are not seriously injured in an accident, follow these steps:
- Remove yourself from harm’s way
- Call the police
- Speak to any witnesses and get their contact information
- Record or take images of the scene, your injuries, damage done to your personal property, and damage done to any property that’s not yours
- Seek medical attention to establish your well-being
- Find a reliable personal injury attorney
The more detailed and proactive you are following your accident, the better for your case in the future. You should also call your insurance agency and detail to them how the events occurred, but we don’t recommend being recorded by the adjuster until you have met with a car accident lawyer.
Contact us as soon as you can, so we can start your legal process straight away. We know what it takes to manage your claim successfully.
What To Do After Your Slip and Fall Accident
We encourage you to take almost the same actions after a slip and fall accident as you would a vehicle accident. Depending on the severity of your injury, you should speak to a medical provider ASAP. While the police may not need to be called, you should file a report with the property manager or any person in charge.
Know that if you don’t document the accident area well, the area may be fixed before an investigation is completed, so be sure you take pictures of the space that caused your fall. If your fall occurred on another’s property, you may have a premises liability case.
Call Hull & Zimmerman as soon as you can so we can start the legal process and get a swift, effective outcome to your case.
Seeking Workers’ Compensation
Brighton is known for its rural farm areas, manufacturing plants, and industrial factories. These physical jobs require skill and safety, but sometimes safety codes and measures go unchecked or aren’t met.
Whether you work in a physically demanding job or sit at a desk, you may be injured while on the job, and seeking workers’ compensation may be available to you.
Some problems that may arise due to your injury include:
- Ongoing pain
- Loss of job
- Loss of future income
- Medical expenses
- And more
We recommend talking with one of our workers’ compensation attorneys to learn your rights and options.
