To verify a lawyer's track record, start by asking directly about their experience with cases similar to yours. If you've suffered a severe or catastrophic injury, ask specifically about their experience with spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, amputations, or other life-altering injuries. Request specific examples of results in high-stakes cases. Review their website for case results, verdicts, and settlements. Check for peer recognition like Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, or Martindale-Hubbell ratings since these designations require independent verification and peer evaluation. Read client reviews on Google, Avvo, and other platforms. Verify their bar membership and check for any disciplinary history through the Colorado Supreme Court Attorney Regulation Counsel. A reputable severe injury attorney will be transparent about their experience and happy to discuss their qualifications, including their willingness to take catastrophic injury cases to trial.
