It’s my pleasure to write Richard Gamma a review. I have had some bad luck and called around and found Mr. Gamma. He is a professional at all times and honest. He will go out of his way to help out. He helped was always willing to talk and listen to me at all times. We settled my case after 3 years and he even brought my settlement to me. I recommend him before you hire anyone else. I could not have asked for more as an Attorney! Great man and very sincere and honest and Professional

I posted a legal question on AVVO, and immediately got a ton of responses from many injury lawyers across CO. Almost every lawfirm’s response on there was to contact them immediately. However, Mr. Richard Gama from Gama Law firm was the ONLY lawyer that responded by saying that I needed to seek medical help for my injury first, before I had worry about a lawyer. No questions asked, I went ahead and reached out to him and see if he would be able to represent me. I knew this was someone who was not only interested in representing me but also cared about my health and well-being. Given the fact that this was my first ever vehicle accident with an injury, I knew little to nothing and did not know what to expect. However, before I would even wonder or ask him a question , Mr. Gama would have already told me what to do or what to expect. It truly was an easy, quick and effortless experience throughout this whole process. It was nice to know that someone knowledgeable, experienced and very well qualified, would be able to talk you at a personal level but also be very professional about things. I truly felt at ease every time I talked to him whether through phone call or email communication. He was always available and ready to meet and would give you his full attention and time although he had a busy schedule. (He even drove up to my job) I just want to Thank Mr. Richard Gama for his time, patience, great advices and of course his willingness to help and made sure I, his client, was fully satisfied with my case before anything. I most definitely recommend him to anyone who needs an expert in injury cases because he will give you his best. This is someone who truly cares about his clients and their well-being.

I hired a "big firm" for my car accident case but they never returned my calls or kept me posted about my case so I fired them and went to Mr. Gama. He always made time to talk with me and we really stuck it to the insurance company in the end. If I ever get hurt again I know who I'm calling.

My father's case wasn't being taken care of by the previous lawyer, so my friend referred me to contact Timur. Timur took action on the case immediately, since there was not much time left within the CO statues. He only had few months to work on the case. He always informed me of every response from insurance company and as far as his actions being taken on the case. I really liked working with TImur. He is very responsible, easy to communicate with and explains very well the details of the case and/or situtaion. I would highly recommend him as an attorney. He is a professional and knows what he is doing.

This law firm does not respond to direct questions relating to your case and available actions to take. They charged nearly 4 times the amount of a standard court filing fee which is by law unethical. I specifically asked them to include evidence in my motion in which they reassured me it was not necessary, in turn my motion was denied citing failure to provide the exact documentation that I requested in my intake with them. Patrick Barkman is gravely condescending and did not even care to address me with the correct spelling of my name. They charge you for the Paralegal to have a weekly meeting to strategize next steps and then when you ask for notes of those sessions they go silent or when a motion is denied they say they need to discuss next steps. So why are they charging for weekly case reviews/next steps? Their firm lost a payment I made of more than $3k and threatened to withdraw from my case. I called their billing department several times asking for Sara Thorp, never got a call back. Their practices are unethical, their communication is nonexistent or full of verbal acrobatics to avoid fulfilling specific requests or answering questions. Don't trust these people whatsoever.

Our case took a very long time to settle. I'm sure it's because of how much effort our lawyer put into this case, and he came through for us in a big way. We got a Very Fair settlement and despite it taking a long time to settle, we would use them again if we ever needed an accident lawyer again. We would highly recommend this office to friends and family.

I was unfortunately rear-ended this past summer. It was just my second accident ever and my first one in over 10 years, so I wanted to find the best possible team to guide and help me through this process. I couldn't have picked a better team. Jason, my Case Manager, was simply amazing. We stayed in communication throughout the entire process, and this review is the least I can do for him and the entire Denver Personal Injury Lawyers team. Thank you so very much!

Because of the relationship, Carter was my lawyer pro bono. I would have received the same sentencing without a lawyer, but was more comfortable having one. It was easier to have him on my side then going through the case alone.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You

A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.

If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.

When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:

  • Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
  • Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
  • Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
  • Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
  • Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.

What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
  • Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
  • Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
  • Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
  • Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.

How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?

Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.

Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.

How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:

  • Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
  • Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.

Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer

Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:

  1. What experience do you have with car accident cases?
    Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial.
  5. Will you handle my case personally?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement.
  6. What kind of compensation can I expect?
    Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:

  • Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  • Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
  • Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
  • Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
  • Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:

  • Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
  • Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
  • Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
  • Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
  • Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
  • List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.

Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
