On-the-job injuries can sideline you from work and threaten your family's financial stability. While workers' compensation covers many injuries, it is not always the only avenue — and it doesn't always provide everything you're owed. Injury Claim Team connects injured workers with attorneys who protect their rights.
Workplace Injuries Claims in Colorado
Colorado workers' compensation generally covers medical care and a portion of lost wages regardless of fault, but it does not allow recovery for pain and suffering. When a third party — such as a negligent contractor, driver, or equipment manufacturer — caused or contributed to your injury, you may also have a separate personal injury claim that can provide fuller compensation. Construction, energy, and industrial work in Colorado carry especially high risks.
No fee unless we win: Our network attorneys handle workplace injuries cases on contingency. You pay nothing unless they recover compensation for you, and the case review is always free.
Common Causes of Workplace Injuries Injuries
Many workplace injuries cases share recurring causes. Identifying exactly what went wrong — and who is responsible — is the foundation of a strong claim:
- Construction site falls and accidents
- Heavy machinery and equipment injuries
- Vehicle accidents while working
- Defective tools and equipment
- Falling objects and structural collapses
- Electrical and burn injuries
- Repetitive stress and overexertion
- Negligence by third-party contractors
Compensation You May Recover
Every case is different, but injured Coloradans pursuing workplace injuries claims may be entitled to compensation for medical treatment, a portion of lost wages through workers' comp, and — in third-party claims — additional damages including full lost earnings, pain and suffering, and long-term disability. The right attorney makes sure every category of loss is documented and pursued.

Why Act Quickly
Colorado law limits how long you have to file a claim, and evidence disappears fast — skid marks fade, surveillance footage is overwritten, and witnesses move on. The sooner you connect with an attorney, the more they can do to protect your rights and build your case. There is no downside to a free consultation, and no obligation.
Workplace Injuries Frequently Asked Questions
Workers' comp usually bars suing your employer, but if a third party caused your injury, you may have a separate personal injury claim for fuller compensation.
Unlike workers' comp, a third-party claim can include pain and suffering and full lost wages, not just a portion.
An attorney can help you appeal a denial and explore every available source of compensation.
