Edward Carlstead handles all sorts of injury cases: automobile and truck accidents, slip and falls, landowner liability, workers' compensation where a third party is at fault, and product defects. He knows how to assess the value of your case and is are experienced in getting our clients fair compensation. He will hunt aggressively for all possible insurance to cover your injury.
Avoid the temptation of trying to get a quick settlement. Insurance companies love to close cases before the full extent of injuries are known. Not all injuries manifest themselves after an accident. Sometimes there are adverse medical conditions that arise months, even years, after an injury. Sometimes people are left with unforeseen and permanent disabilities. Mr. Carlstead can help you avoid settling your case too low.
Do you remember “no-fault” law in Colorado? That was were you were required to carry insurance to cover your medical and other expenses suffered in an accident regardless of who was at fault. That law is no more. We now have a “fault-based” systems which means that, unless you bought the extra coverage, you now have to prove that someone else was at fault in causing your injuries before their insurance company will pay. So how are you going to prove that the other driver was at fault? Do you think the other insurance company is going to be fair with you just because the other driver got a ticket? You need a lawyer experienced in handing automobile and trucking accident cases to go into battle for you with the insurance companies, or go to court for you if need be, in order to get you the compensation you deserve.
Sometimes
people are unaware that their injury was caused by a defective product.
Let us take a look at the cause of your injury before you conclude it
was due to your own carelessness. If you suspect you have been injured
by a product, do not let the manufacturer or seller take possession
of it. A properly preserved product is essential to your case. But even
if you do not have the product there are laws that can protect you.
Call us immediately.
We
prefer to handle collections of amounts in excess of $10,000.00. However,
if you have been the victim of a bad check, are owed salary or other
compensation, or have security for your claim, we will be happy to consider
your case.
Mr. Carlstead is an experienced civil litigator, handling cases involving personal injury, business and contract disputes, construction, product defects, partnership dissolutions, and commercial and individual collections. Mr. Carlstead's philosophy is to exhaust all avenues of settlement before filing suit. But if a lawsuit must be filed, Mr. Carlstead will not hesitate to take it to trial.
