The recoverable damages in a Silverthorne car accident case depend on the expenses and losses the victim endures because of their crash and injuries. Our personal injury attorneys gather evidence to show these damages and seek fair compensation for them. We aim to maximize the compensation we recover for every client.

Some commonly recoverable damages include:

We seek compensation for the intangible losses our clients experienced, including their physical pain and emotional stress. We know how to value these non-economic damages and use previous cases settled in Summit County courts to support our demand for a fair payout.

Victims with car accident injuries require immediate and thorough assessment and treatment. We seek and secure money for their to-date and future medical care related to their car accident injuries.

Many car accident victims miss work. We can help you recover your lost income for time missed working and diminished earning capacity if you cannot return to work because of your injuries.

We help our clients recover money to repair or replace their crashed car and other personal items damaged in a crash.

St. Anthony Summit Hospital is the only trauma center in Summit County, a Level III facility in Frisco, CO. Those with more serious injuries might require transfer to a Level I trauma facility in Denver or elsewhere in the Mile-High region. The costs of traveling for care and follow-up add up quickly. Save all receipts, and you could recover these expenses, too. In particular, if a Flight-For-Life helicopter transport was required in your crash, the medical costs can add up quickly.

The risks of driving in Summit County and Silverthorne only increase as traffic continues to grow. According to a recent study commissioned by the Colorado Department of Transportation, traffic on U.S. Highway 6 and Colorado Highway 9 in Dillon and Silverthorne will increase by 45 percent over the next two decades. With more vehicles on the road comes a greater risk of a crash.

This is especially true because of speeding and distracted drivers in this area and motorists who are unfamiliar with the roads. Unfortunately, drunk driving crashes are common, too, because the high altitude can have an exacerbated effect on alcohol drinkers. Indeed, Highway 9 is a notorious corridor for drink-driving and related car accidents.
