Greeley Personal Injury Lawyer

Our Personal Injury Lawyer Practice Areas

The Wilhite Law Firm represents people in Greeley and the surrounding areas of northern Colorado who have suffered severe personal injuries in a wide variety of accidents. Some of our practice areas include the following:

Car Accidents

The streets, roads, and highways in and around Greeley are the scene of many car accidents. At The Wilhite Law Firm, we have helped thousands of people from throughout Colorado recover the compensation they deserve for injuries suffered in car crashes. We are proud of our heritage of justice and our tradition of treating clients as individuals rather than simply as insurance claims to be processed. If you have been hurt in a car accident in Greeley or elsewhere in northern Colorado, you can rely on an experienced car accident injury attorney to guide you through the process of securing full and fair compensation for your losses.

Truck Accidents

A large number of tractor-trailers, dump trucks, and other heavy trucks transport goods in and around Greeley every day. When these trucks are involved in a collision with other vehicles or pedestrians, the resulting injuries are frequently quite serious, particularly for the occupants of other vehicles or those on foot. Catastrophic injuries from a truck accident may include, for example, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, internal injuries, and severe bone fractures. The truck accident attorneys at The Wilhite Law Firm have the experience needed to handle complex cases related to truck accidents. We are ready to review your situation and determine all potential sources of compensation.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable road users. Other drivers often fail to make a proper effort to look out for motorcycles, which can have catastrophic results. If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to significant compensation for your injuries and losses. The Wilhite Law Firm is dedicated to helping victims of motorcycle accidents. With decades of experience handling serious personal injury motorcycle accident claims in Colorado, we are ready to put our knowledge to work for you. Contact our  motorcycle accident lawyer today.

Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents

More and more people are choosing to walk and ride bicycles in Greeley–for health, for convenience, for savings, or just to be “green.” While this is a positive trend, there is a downside: more traffic accidents involving pedestrians and bicyclists. In many cases, a careless driver is to blame for the crash. Because the injuries that result from these types of accidents are often quite serious, it is especially important to work with an experienced attorney who understands these complex claims. A bicycle accident lawyer at The Wilhite Law Firm is ready to help you if you have been hurt in a pedestrian or bicycle accident.

Slip-and-Fall Accidents

Those who own and occupy buildings and other facilities in Greeley are expected to keep their property in a reasonably safe condition. Failure to do so may lead to serious injuries, such as those suffered in a slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall accident. Cases involving injuries caused by unreasonably dangerous conditions on someone else’s property fall into a category known as “premises liability.” The Wilhite Law Firm’s slip and fall injury lawyers help victims of falls and other accidents seek the compensation they deserve from those responsible.

Workplace Accidents

The people of Greeley aren’t afraid of hard work. But sometimes, a workplace accident can result in serious injuries that prevent someone from earning a living. Workers’ compensation is designed to provide benefits for injured workers to cover medical expenses and help replace lost wages. Unfortunately, actually recovering these benefits is not as easy as it should be in many cases. That’s why the workplace injury attorneys at The Wilhite Law Firm fight for the compensation injured workers deserve. Not only do we assist with workers’ compensation claims, but we also analyze workplace accidents for other potential sources of recovery, such as a third-party claim.

Social Security Disability Benefits

If your claim for SSD benefits has been denied, you are not alone. The majority of initial applications for SSD are rejected at first – including many valid claims. Don’t give up. Get help. The Social Security disability benefits lawyers at The Wilhite Law Firm have helped many people get the SSD benefits they need and deserve. We are driven by a heritage of justice to make sure injured and disabled people are treated fairly by government agencies. Let us review your claim and discuss your legal options during a free consultation.

VA Disabilities

Service veterans who become disabled may be entitled to disability benefits from the Veterans Administration. These benefits may be for disabilities connected to the veteran’s service or those not connected to the veteran’s service. The amount of the benefits paid by the VA is based on the veteran’s disability rating. In most cases, the initial rating is too low. The Wilhite Law Firm is proud to assist veterans in Greeley and surrounding areas as they seek the full VA disability benefits that they have earned through their service to our country.

Product Liability

When someone is injured by a defective product, the companies responsible for designing, manufacturing, marketing, and distributing the product may be held liable for damages through a product liability lawsuit. These cases are often very complex and highly contested by the companies responsible for the defective product. That is why it is critical to get help from an experienced personal injury attorney like those at The Wilhite Law Firm in Greeley. Let us review the facts of your case and provide you with advice about your legal options during a free consultation. Contact our product liability lawyer today.

Dangerous Medicines

Medications are meant to make patients better, not sicker. Too often, that is not the case. Have you suffered adverse side effects from a prescription or over-the-counter medication? If so, the dangerous drugs and medicine attorneys at The Wilhite Law Firm want to hear from you. You may be entitled to compensation for your losses.

Wrongful Death Claims

Have you lost a close relative due to an accident that was someone else’s fault? Although there is nothing that can bring that person back, you can still seek justice for them through a wrongful death claim. Colorado law has specific rules governing who can bring a wrongful death claim and what sorts of compensation may be available. The experienced wrongful death attorneys at The Wilhite Law Firm are driven by our heritage of justice. We are proud to provide compassionate legal assistance to families who have lost a loved one due to the negligence of another. Contact our wrongful death lawyer today.

What to Expect When You Contact Our Law Firm

Why Should You Contact Us?

When you work with the personal injury attorneys at The Wilhite Law Firm in Greeley, we will document every detail of your accident and fully investigate your case. We frequently work with investigators, accident deconstructionists, and other experts to determine what really happened in an accident. We also work with medical experts to review medical records to gain a full understanding of the extent of injuries involved in a case.

We work hard to keep you constantly updated about your case, every step of the way. Our personal injury law firm will take care of all communications with insurers and other parties responsible for compensating you for your injuries or for the wrongful death of a family member.

We understand that you may have concerns about paying for an attorney. That is why The Wilhite Law Firm handles virtually all personal injury claims on a contingency fee basis. That means that you pay us nothing up front for our legal services. We receive an attorney’s fee if and when we recover compensation on your behalf. The fee will typically be calculated based on an agreed-upon percentage of your recovery.
