A JURY AWARDED ME OVER $900,000.00 FOR THE DAMAGES DONE TO ME.

C. O., Denver

After I was hit broadside by a drunk driver who had no insurance, my own insurance company would not pay for the injuries that the other driver had caused. Not only that, they refused to pay my medical bills, and would not send me the forms that I needed to fill out. Eventually I was sued by my doctors to collect their medical bills. I hired McCormick & Murphy, and they sued my insurance to recover the uninsured motorist benefits that I was entitled to. They also sued my insurance company for not paying for my medical bills and for treating me in bad faith. A jury awarded me over $900,000.00 for the damages my insurance company had done to me. I highly recommend the law firm of McCormick & Murphy.

What is a Personal Injury?

A personal injury lawsuit is typically based in tort law. A “tort” is a civil wrong that courts recognize as grounds for a lawsuit. There are several specific torts, including assault, battery, negligence, intentional infliction of emotional distress, trespass, and defamation.
While some torts are also crimes that are punishable by imprisonment, the primary goals of tort law are to provide victims relief for the damages incurred and to deter other people from committing the same harms.

What to Look for When Choosing a Denver Personal Injury Attorney

If you believe that another person or a company is responsible for your injury or accident, you may file a lawsuit to determine whether that person or company is legally responsible, or “liable,” for it. In a personal injury case, liability often rests on whether a person or company was careless, or “negligent.”

Damages in a Personal Injury Lawsuit

In a personal injury lawsuit, an injured person (or “plaintiff”) may sue for monetary damages or an injunction to prevent the responsible party for continuing the tortious conduct, or both. Among the types of damages that a plaintiff may recover are:

Medical Expenses

If your injuries required medical care, you may be able to recover the costs of medical treatment in a personal injury lawsuit. This includes the care that you needed immediately after your injury, as well as the care that you will need in the future.

Pain and Suffering

An accident or injury can be a traumatic, life-altering event. If you experienced pain or suffered for an extended period of time after your accident, you may be able to obtain compensation for pain and suffering from the responsible party or parties by filing a personal injury lawsuit.

Lost Wages

If your injuries caused you to miss work, you may be able to recover lost wages by filing a personal injury lawsuit. It can be difficult to calculate the amount of wages that you are owed, which is one of the many reasons why an attorney can be helpful to you after an accident.

Reduced Earning Capacity

An injury can impair your ability to work in the future. If your earning capacity has been reduced or diminished due to the injuries you suffered in an accident, you may be able to recover the amount of wages you would have earned had the accident not occurred by filing a personal injury lawsuit.

Accidents and Personal Injury Lawsuits

There are many types of accidents that may form the basis for a personal injury lawsuit, including:

Motor Vehicle Accidents

In 2015, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) reported that there were 22,140 car accidents reported in the county of Denver. If you or a loved one has been injured in a car accident, truck accident, or motorcycle accident, you should contact an experienced Denver personal injury lawyer to help you determine whether or not to file a lawsuit.
These accidents can cause victims extraordinary pain and suffering and may result in debilitating lifelong injuries. The lawyers at McCormick & Murphy, P.C. have years of experience representing victims of car accidents, truck accidents, and motorcycle accidents.

Bicycle Accidents

Bicyclists spend more time on the road and can become a victim of a bicycle-related injury in Denver. The City of Denver reported that between 2008 and 2012 there were an estimated 1,325 bicycle crashes. With that, 52% of the bicycle accidents resulted in at least one injury.
If you have been injured in a bicycle accident, a lawyer can help you protect your legal claims and get the medical assistance you need.

Pedestrian Accidents

In the last five years, there were an estimated 1,924 pedestrian-related accidents, with 60% of those pedestrian accidents resulting with an injury. A pedestrian accident can be a traumatic, life-altering event.
If you have been injured while walking in Denver or the surrounding areas, the experienced attorneys at McCormick & Murphy, P.C. can help you recover the costs of your medical expenses and care, for pain and suffering, and for lost wages by filing a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf.

A compassionate lawyer can help you and your family hold the parties responsible for your loved one’s death accountable in court. If your loved one has died because of another person or company’s negligence, contact a Denver wrongful death lawyer right away.

Defective Products
