Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do first after a car accident in Denver?

Call 911 if anyone is injured — Denver police must complete an accident report for any crash with injury or significant property damage. Photograph the scene, vehicle positions, and any visible injuries. Get the other driver’s insurance information and license plate. See a doctor within 24–48 hours, even for symptoms that seem minor. Contact an attorney before giving a recorded statement to any insurer — including your own.

How does Colorado’s dog bite law work in Denver?

Colorado Revised Statutes § 13-21-124 makes dog owners strictly liable for bites that occur in public places or when the victim was lawfully on private property. The owner cannot escape liability by claiming they had no prior knowledge the dog was dangerous. The bite must break the skin to trigger the strict liability statute. Provocation is a complete defense — but courts interpret provocation narrowly and rarely apply it to child victims.

Does Stuckey Injury Law LLC handle cases outside Denver County?

Yes. Stuckey Injury Law LLC assists clients throughout Colorado, not just Denver County. Personal injury cases arising in Adams, Arapahoe, Jefferson, and other Front Range counties are within the firm’s service area. Cases are filed in the appropriate district court based on where the accident occurred or where the defendant resides.
