Car Accidents

BOULDER COUNTY CAR ACCIDENT ATTORNEY

Located in Boulder; Licensed in Colorado, Louisiana, and Texas

Car accidents can happen to anyone, at any time. We represent injured people involved in accidents, including drivers, and their passengers.

Unfortunately, roads are more dangerous with more distracted drivers than ever.  According to Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, the impairments associated with using a cell phone while driving can be as profound as those associated with driving while drunk.

In the blink of an eye, car crashes impact the lives of those involved and their families.  The financial burden of a wreck is often extensive and includes medical expenses, missed work, and property damage.  Chris Parks is an experienced Boulder car accident attorney who can help with your case and get you back on the road to recovery.

Call us for a free case evaluation. We offer consultations over the phone and will answer your questions. There is no obligation to sign a contract based on the initial phone call.

HOW CAN A CAR ACCIDENT ATTORNEY HELP YOU?

A car accident attorney fights to get you the settlement you deserve.  They use their knowledge of the law and previous litigation experience to prove what your case is really worth.  

Chris has represented hundreds of people injured in car accidents and also has experience on the defense side — representing insurance companies.  His insider knowledge gives him an advantage by knowing how the other side thinks.

Chris’ goal is to make your life as stress-free as possible by taking care of your case while you focus on healing.

CHRIS’ APPROACH TO CAR ACCIDENTS

Our process of pursuing a car accident claim begins with collecting evidence, talking to witnesses, and gathering medical bills and records.  Time is of the essence and we start working on your case aggressively as soon as a contract is signed.

As soon as we have all the facts, we can make a decision as to whether to file a lawsuit or send a demand letter in an attempt to reach a settlement.

Some clients want to settle the case out-of-court. If so, our demand letter will summarize the facts of the case, highlight all damages unique to the claim (such as current and future medical expenses, lost wages, lost earning capacity, scarring or disfigurement, and other damages), and propose a fair settlement.

Other clients call us for one reason: to go to court and let a jury decide the value of their case.

Negotiations begin with a phone call, but in order to get the top dollar for any claim it is important to be fully prepared to go to court — that preparation begins as soon as you become a client of our firm.

Since, Chris has been handling auto accident cases for thirty-two years he knows how to prepare for trial, including what pictures to take, which experts to hire, and how to resolve your case as efficiently as possible and for the highest possible value.
