Rear-End Car Accident Attorney in Denver
Fighting For Rear-End Accident Victims in Colorado
Each year, more than 2.5 million rear-end accidents occur in the United States. In fact, the National Safety Council reports that rear-end collisions are the most common type of automobile accident.
In a rear-end collision, the front bumper of the rear car collides with the back bumper of the forward car, thus transferring the energy from the rear car to the front car.
Rear-end accidents happen when drivers are stopped at traffic lights or in congested traffic and are unable to avoid the accident because they are surrounded by other cars.
Contributing factors in rear-end collisions include driver distraction, panic stops, tailgating, and reduced traction due to weather or worn pavement.

Common Injuries in a Rear-End Accident
Because of the energy transfer in a rear-end collision, significant injuries can be sustained, even at low speeds. Never underestimate an injury or dismiss any pain, bruising, or inflammation after an accident.
The following are injuries that could be sustained as a result of a rear-end collision:
- Disc herniation resulting from compression of the spine
- Spinal cord injuries resulting in permanent disability
- Closed head injuries resulting in traumatic brain injury
- Face and head injuries from the airbag
- Wrist, finger, hand, and arm injuries
- Seatbelt injuries
Rear-end accidents are also called “whiplash accidents” because the nature of the collision often results in a whiplash injury for the driver of the front car. Whiplash describes a range of injuries related to a sudden distortion of the neck. Symptoms can occur immediately or be delayed several days. Although whiplash is certainly the most common injury suffered in a rear-end accident, it is not the only one.

"Stephen Wahlberg went above and beyond in their empathetic approach."
Stephen Wahlberg recently helped my family and me in a wrongful death case, which we filed on behalf of my mother. I’ll never forget the day of - it was surreal. Having been through these situations many times before in his career, Steve came to our side and had his staff on the scene immediately. He was highly recommended by trusted friends, and his presence offered a breath of fresh air. It was a relief in many ways, to know that he would "take care of it.” I highly recommend him to anyone who may be considering his services. I am grateful we were gifted with an incredible human being AND brilliant/talented/experienced/well-connected lawyer to support us through the legal process. Thanks again, Steve and team!

"Mr. Woodruff never gave up."My case ended up getting so messed up and complicated because of my former attorneys that no firm would even consider taking my case to try and salvage it. But, thanks to Mr. Woodruff for never giving up and helping us, even though his plate was so full of other clients. He never pushed us off to the side nor quit helping us. Now, this part is very important! Mr. Woodruff was never hired as my attorney, but yet, he insisted on making sure that my family and I were always taken care of and never forgotten about! Plus, he never asked us for one cent for all the time and work he had put into my case! Mr. Woodruff put more time into my case than the attorneys that I hired! In my opinion, Mr. Woodruff could have easily sent me a bill somewhere in the neighborhood of $20,000 and up! Mr. Woodruff and his firm are the only attorneys that I know who truly care about the people and not just about making money! Eventually, Mr. Woodruff and Mr. Sloane helped my family recover enough money to help us be able to start our lives over. So, if you're looking for a firm of attorneys that are ethical, actually care about you, and will do everything within their power to get you what you deserve, then you must contact Denver Trial Lawyers! My family cannot stress enough just how great this firm is! They truly saved our lives, so do yourself a huge favor and call Denver Trial Lawyers so they can save yours! Thank you, Mr. Woodruff and Mr. Sloane, from the bottom of our hearts, you will never be forgotten for all you have done for us! You are truly my family's angels!- Jon F.

Jordan was the only attorney who not only took the time to truly listen to us, but also believed in our case when others wouldn’t. Throughout the entire process, Jordan was patient, compassionate, and always available to answer our questions. She helped guide us through one of the most painful times in our lives with empathy and professionalism. Thanks to Jordan and her team's dedication and expertise, we were able to find a sense of justice for our son. We can’t thank Jordan and her team enough for their unwavering support and commitment.
