Brain Injury Attorney in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs TBI Attorneys With Partners on Every Case
A traumatic brain injury changes everything fast. Medical bills accumulate while income stops, and insurance adjusters push for quick resolutions before the full picture emerges. At Leventhal Swan Taylor Temming PC, we handle brain injury claims from our Colorado Springs office, with partners personally involved in every file from intake through resolution.
We represent clients injured in motor vehicle accidents, premises liability incidents, workplace accidents, and medical malpractice situations, including cases where a healthcare provider’s error caused or worsened a brain injury. That last category matters: we’re one of the few firms in the region that takes on medical malpractice cases, and we’ve secured one of the largest medical malpractice settlements in Colorado history.

Brain injuries don’t respect simple categories. When a TBI traces back to a surgeon’s error, an anesthesia failure, or a delayed diagnosis, the claim requires medical malpractice knowledge that many personal injury practices don’t have. Our cross-practice depth means we can pursue the full claim regardless of which direction the facts point. Clients receive regular updates at every significant development, so you’re never left guessing about where your case stands.

The Legal Process for a Brain Injury Claim in Colorado Springs
We manage the full investigative process: obtaining accident reports, gathering medical records, preserving evidence, and consulting with medical professionals, life care planners, and vocational experts. We prepare every case as if it could go to trial, which strengthens our position at the negotiating table well before any courtroom deadline arrives.
Colorado Filing Deadlines
Colorado’s statute of limitations gives most brain injury claimants two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim under C.R.S. 13-80-102. Motor vehicle accident claims carry a three-year deadline. Cases involving a government entity may fall under the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act, which imposes shorter notice requirements and separate procedural rules. Missing these deadlines can permanently forfeit the right to seek compensation, which is why early consultation matters: it protects your options and allows evidence to be secured before it disappears.
Colorado follows modified comparative negligence under C.R.S. 13-21-111. You can still recover damages if your share of fault is below 50%, though your award is reduced proportionally by your percentage of fault. Most brain injury claims resolve through negotiated settlement; cases that proceed to litigation may be filed in El Paso County District Court.
Damages You May Be Entitled to Pursue
The recoverable damages in a brain injury claim can be substantial. Economic damages include emergency and hospital care, neurology and specialist visits, cognitive and occupational therapy, medications, future medical needs, lost wages during recovery, and diminished earning capacity if the injury prevents a return to prior work.
Non-economic damages covering pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and permanent impairment are subject to Colorado’s statutory cap. For general personal injury civil actions filed on or after January 1, 2025, Colorado HB 24-1472 raised that cap to $1.5 million, with biennial inflation adjustments beginning January 1, 2028. In cases involving egregious or reckless conduct, punitive damages may also be available under Colorado law.
The full financial scope of a TBI claim often becomes clear only after treatment concludes and long-term prognosis is established. Accepting an early settlement offer before that point can leave significant compensation on the table.
