Losing a loved one as a result of someone else’s careless decisions is never easy, especially if the loss could have possibly been prevented. In addition to the grief and devastation, the death of a family member could also lead to financial stresses that impact those who relied on the family member for financial support.
Fortunately, Colorado courts have given the public the ability to file a legal action against the person or entity that caused the death. The most common wrongful death claims result from motor vehicle accidents, drunk driving accidents, motorcycle accidents, and trucking accidents.
