Northern Colorado winters do not just slow traffic. They change how walkways, parking lots, and entryways behave underfoot. In Greeley, a dusting can turn into hardpack overnight, and chinook winds refreeze meltwater by late afternoon. When someone falls on snow or ice, the question that decides most cases is not whether it was slippery. The question is whether a property owner or manager should have done more, or done it sooner, to make the area safe. I have i

Pedestrian cases live in the space where physics meets human behavior. A person on foot has no crumple zone, no airbag, and very little room for error. When I take a pedestrian case, my job is not just to tell a story about a careless driver. It is to assemble a technical, documentary, and human record strong enough to withstand a skeptical adjuster, a busy judge, and a jury that may have crossed a street that morning without thinking about how signals, sightlines, and

Most people who suffer an injury from a crash, a fall, or a defective product face the same hard choice: accept a settlement now or push toward a trial later. The law books do not feel the ache in your back or the stress of missed paychecks, yet those lived realities shape every decision point. A good injury attorney translates legal pathways into practical choices, balancing dollars, risk, and time with a client’s health and peace of mind. The fork in the road and

Going back to work after an injury is not a single decision. It is a series of choices, documents, doctor visits, and conversations with people who may not fully understand what you are living through. Some clients tell me the pain is manageable but the fear lingers, not only of reinjury, but of doing something that jeopardizes their benefits or their job. Others return too soon and end up back in the emergency room. A thoughtful plan, built around medical re

Catastrophic injury cases are not just larger versions of ordinary personal injury claims. They unfold on a different scale, with medical complexity, life care planning, multiple layers of insurance, and a need for precise advocacy that anticipates the next ten or twenty years, not just the next few months. When a client has a spinal cord injury, a traumatic brain injury, severe burns, amputations, or a combination of these, the strategy must widen and deepen

Independent witnesses change cases. When a story comes from someone with no stake in the outcome, adjusters listen differently, jurors lean forward, and the pressure to settle fairly grows. I have seen a near stalemate over a disputed red light resolve in an afternoon because a third party stepped up, described what they saw, and handed us the timing we needed. I have also watched a strong injury claim wobble because we could not corroborate how a crash unfol

The phone call from the at‑fault driver’s insurer never comes, because there is no insurer. Maybe the driver admits at the scene they let their policy lapse, or they flee and you are left with a partial plate number and a cracked bumper. Either way, the path to compensation looks different when the other motorist is uninsured. It is navigable with the right strategy, and it can go sideways if you make common mistakes in the first few days. I have handled u

The ground on a construction site never sits still. Materials arrive in waves, trades overlap, heavy equipment nudges close to people carrying rebar or sheet goods, and a deadline pushes everyone to move faster than feels comfortable. When something goes wrong in that pressure cooker, the harm can be life changing. As an accident attorney who has walked job sites after serious incidents, spoken with foremen who remember the exact sound of a fall, and sat at kitchen tab
