Meet William P. Boyle
After an accident, many victims often do not understand that they have a right to fair compensation if the liable party was negligent. A claim can be filed with the at-fault party’s insurance company seeking damages for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.
It is important that you retain experienced legal representation as soon as possible, or you may lose out on your chances to seek the maximum compensation you are owed. As time passes, evidence can be lost, memories can fade, or an eyewitness can be more difficult to track. Learn your rights by speaking to an personal injury attorney today.

What To Do After an Accident
- Check for injuries
If anyone requires medical assistance, call for an ambulance immediately. - Call the police
Wait for police officers to arrive and make sure to request a copy of the police report afterwards. - Contact a Denver injury attorney
Before you talk to insurance companies, speak with an attorney. He or she can help you file a claim or discuss whether a settlement offer is fair. If your case requires litigation, your lawyer can also represent you in trial.
- Seek evidence
Take as many pictures and write down as many details as possible regarding the accident, including weather conditions, the vehicles, and other important considerations. The more evidence you have, the stronger your claim is. - Seek medical attention
Some injuries do not show up immediately, so it is critical that you have a professional monitor you for health symptoms following the accident. - Gather information
Take down names, addresses, insurance information, and contact information of the drivers, passengers, and witnesses.

Our team can help you prepare a strong claim and negotiate strategically for the maximum compensation. We are firm in our approach and our willingness to take a claim to court – which often works to our clients’ advantages.
