Recent Review:
“I highly recommend this law firm to anyone who needs legal help for their personal injury case. They did a wonderful job with my case and went above and beyond to settle it in my best interest. Adam McClure and Susan Calvert were fantastic!!!! They were professional, responsive, compassionate, and aggressive in pursuing the compensation I deserved. They kept me informed throughout the process and explained everything clearly and patiently. Times when I felt like giving up, they comforted my family and myself to see it through. Also Jimmy was Great!!! From day one he was totally on top of all the information and paperwork that was needed moving forward. They also have a great team of experts and staff who are very supportive and helpful. I am very grateful for their work and the outcome they achieved for me. Thank you so much for everything you did for me! I definitely owe them more than this review, because words cannot express how much I appreciate them and respect them!!! Blessed to have such amazing people to represent me!!!”

Over the past 60+ years, The Frickey Law Firm has handled THOUSANDS of personal injury claims, helping people throughout Colorado recover the maximum amount of available compensation for their injuries. Here are some of the most common cases we handle regularly:

Common Injuries Caused by Accidents

Denver’s stunning streets buzz with activity and entertainment, but they can also be the site of considerable car accidents. These collisions range from minor fender benders to more severe crashes. Injuries resulting from accidents include but are not limited to the following:

Whiplash

Sudden acceleration or deceleration can yield neck injuries, leading to pain and restricted movement.

Broken Bones

Fractures are the byproduct of many collisions. Of all the bones in the body, those that tend to get damaged in car wrecks most seem to be the ribs, the femur of the upper leg, pelvic bones, the fibula in the lower leg, facial and cranial bones, and the chest’s sternum.

Head and Brain Injuries

Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) unfortunately happen very often, particularly in accidents occurring at high speeds.

Spinal Injuries

Spinal injuries can happen in the most devastating of crashes, and they result in life-altering and sometimes permanently life-changing injuries.

Slip and Falls

Slips and falls affect your equilibrium, typically from stepping or running on a slippery surface, usually with moisture. These accidents cause the victim to slip on the wet substance, losing their balance. Common injuries sustained in a slip and fall accident include spinal injuries, neck strains, broken bones, contusions, and concussions.

Workplace Injuries

Denver is a booming and prosperous city filled with enterprise. While diverse in industry and offering employment opportunities to many, it is not immune to workplace accidents. Injuries in the work environment can differ but may involve:

Abrasions and lacerations

These types of injuries can happen if you use tools or machines during your work.

Fractures and Sprains

A fracture can happen during work duties due to a slip and fall type of accident or when your work environment is unsafe. Both sprains and fractures can occur through lifting, pulling, dragging, and collisions. Many of these accidents stem from improper or no training, faulty equipment, or lacking proper gear and equipment. Elbow and even knee hyperextensions can be extremely painful or may start off feeling mild, but if not diagnosed and treated correctly, they can turn into even more severe injuries.

Machinery-related injuries

Workplace machinery injuries can range from moderate to severe and even fatal. These injuries can include burns, lacerations, abrasions, fractures, contusions, concussions, and other traumas.

Back Injury

Workplace back injuries can be triggered by many different issues and reasons, lifting, falls, hazardous job conditions, machinery malfunctions, and more. Injuries to the back can affect tissues, muscles, nerves, or some directly impact the spine.

Occupational Disease

You may be vulnerable to developing certain diseases at work depending on the chemicals present or a lack of appropriate protective coverings and procedures. Asbestos exposure is another severe threat to your health, and it may be present in the building you work in or at your job site. Asbestos ingestion can result in diseases like mesothelioma.

If you suspect any of these injuries, diseases, syndromes, or conditions, you must make an appointment to see a physician and know you have rights. You may also be eligible for worker’s compensation or may pursue legal action.

Dog Bites

Pet ownership is prevalent in Colorado. It is estimated that Denver’s dog population alone is well over 150,000! While dogs can be “man’s best friend,” some can snap and bite, whether due to temperament, environment, a lack of training, or disease.

Dog bites often cause severe injuries, including:

Puncture Wounds

Canine bites frequently lead to puncture wounds, some more traumatic than others, but all can increase the risk for harmful infection.

Facial Injuries and Disfigurement

Unfortunately, bites to the head and neck happen, and facial injuries are seen even more in incidents involving young children as they are closer to or at eye level than most dogs.

Emotional Trauma

Beyond the physical injuries, a dog bite can yield lasting emotional trauma.

Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome

It is tied to emotional stress from the incident but combined with anxiousness, worry, fear, and behaviors like avoidance and isolation. Victims of dog bites or attacks can suffer flashbacks to the event. They may also start self-isolating and skip out on the things they once enjoyed out of fear that resonates from the incident.

Objectives of a Personal Injury Case

When you or maybe a loved one suffers a personal injury, the legal claim is about much more than obtaining financial compensation. However, it can be highly beneficial and constructive in alleviating at least some of the burden of stress. At Frickey Law, we recognize that the goals of a personal injury case extend well beyond recovering damages. Our experienced Colorado personal injury attorneys work diligently to achieve a comprehensive set of objectives to address each client’s unique needs.

Financial Compensation

One of the key objectives of a personal injury case is securing fair and just monetary compensation for the losses incurred due to the injury. It may include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and other economic damages. The endeavor is to alleviate the economic burden on the injured party and their family.

Justice and Accountability

Holding the responsible party accountable for their actions is fundamental to personal injury litigation. Whether the injury resulted from a negligent motorist, an unsafe workplace condition, or a defective product, seeking justice is an essential goal. It provides closure for victims and contributes to an overall safer community by identifying and discouraging negative behaviors and actors.

Restitution for Pain and Suffering

Personal injuries often cause physical pain, emotional distress, and a diminished quality of life. Your personal injury case can seek some restitution for these intangible losses. Compensation for pain and suffering aims to acknowledge the emotional and physical turmoil generated by a personal injury accident.

Rehabilitation and Future Care

Serious injuries may mandate ongoing medical care, rehabilitation, or long-term aid. The goal is to secure compensation for current and future medical needs, ensuring that the injured party receives the necessary care for their recovery and well-being.

Loss of Consortium

It’s not unusual for an injury to take its toll on personal ties. Compensation for a loss of consortium recognizes the mark an injury can have on an individual’s ability to maintain both their familial and spousal relationships as before the accident and damages.

Preventing Future Injuries

Personal injury cases contribute to a protected society by encouraging individuals, businesses, and entities to prioritize safety. Cases also function to prevent similar accidents and injuries from repeating in the future when negligent parties are held liable.
