At Cook, Bradford & Levy, LLC, our team of attorneys is fully prepared to fight for the justice you deserve after a Mesa County personal injury accident. We know how these cases work and will aggressively pursue the financial recovery you need to cover your medical care, lost income, and other damages.

Our team has spent over 40 years of combined experience recovering tens of millions of dollars for injured accident victims, often without taking their cases to court. However, we will not hesitate to file a lawsuit and litigate a case to get justice when an insurance company refuses to pay our clients the money they deserve. Some of our recent verdicts and settlements include:

• Multimillion-dollar confidential premises liability settlement
• $7,395,500 truck accident settlement
• $1,200,000 truck accident settlement
• $950,000 cement truck accident settlement
• $850,000 trip and fall settlement
• Numerous policy limit settlements

Collectively, our attorneys have presented more than 100 cases to a jury, fighting for the money the insurance company owes our clients based on their case facts. We have won payouts from the world’s largest insurance companies and will not back down just because of the resources of the insurer or liable party involved.

We work based on contingency fee, which means you will never pay anything up front for the representation and advocacy we provide. Our clients only pay our team an agreed percentage (usually 1/3 if no lawsuit is needed) from the money we recover for them. Please ask us questions to learn more during your free consultation with us.

When you are hurt in a serious injury accident in Mesa County, you likely require assessment, treatment, and possibly hospitalization. According to the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment, Mesa County is home to three dedicated trauma facilities:

• St. Mary’s Medical Center in Grand Junction: This is the largest hospital between Salt Lake City and Denver and has a Level II trauma center.
• Grand Junction Community Hospital: This Grand Junction hospital has a Level III trauma center.
• Family Health West Hospital: This Fruita, CO, hospital has a Level IV trauma center.

Our personal injury attorneys are familiar with all these medical facilities and other rehabilitation centers and medical clinics throughout the region. While our clients undergo treatment and recover from their injuries, we build strong cases to recover the money they need through a negotiated settlement or litigation when necessary.

We pursue the maximum compensation available for our clients based on the expenses and losses they endured. This is possible because we document their full range of damages by gathering evidence, working with experts to understand their future care needs, and calculating a monetary value for their intangible losses.

Some of the types of damages we commonly recover for individuals and families in personal injury cases include:

• Non-Economic Damages: Pain and suffering, inconvenience, emotional distress, and other intangible losses
• Medical Care Costs: Current and future medical bills, related expenses, and support needs
• Lost Income: Current and future monetary losses because of time missed at work, including diminished earning ability for those who cannot return to their previous job
• Property Damages: Repair or replacement of personal property damages in an accident, such as a vehicle, bicycle, computer, smartphone, glasses, or other items
• Related Expense: The daily cost of treating or living with injuries, from traveling for appointments to parking at the hospital
• Wrongful Death Damages: For families whose loved ones died from injuries suffered in Mesa County, CO
