Under Colorado law, the person who causes a car accident is financially responsible for all of the provable damages related to the accident. Typical damages following a car accident may include damages to property (such as car damage), and bodily injury (damage to the vehicle occupants themselves). For legal purposes, a bodily injury claim is generally sub-divided into two categories:

• 1. Economic Damages (past and future medical expenses, wage loss, and additional expenses related to physical impairment and disfigurement)
• 2. Non-Economic Damages (pain, suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, inconvenience, physical impairment, and other similar losses)

To establish a claim for your injuries related to a motor vehicle accident, three requirements must be met: 1) Fault for the car accident must be proved, and it must be clear that the at-fault driver is responsible for causing the accident; 2) you must have incurred damages; and 3) you must prove that the damages being claimed were caused by the automobile accident.

The recoverable bodily injury damages can be divided into different categories: 1) economic damages, which include past and future medical expenses, past and future wage loss, impairment of earning capacity, and other out-of-pocket expenses; 2) non-economic damages, which include inconvenience, loss of quality of life, emotional distress, pain and suffering; and 3) physical impairment and disfigurement.
