  • What are my rights?
    As a citizen of Colorado, your right to have a personal injury attorney represent you in a court of law is guaranteed. You also have the right to be appropriately compensated for injuries sustained as a result of the negligence of another.
  • What is negligence?
    Generally speaking, negligence is when someone fails to use reasonable care. When a person’s negligence injures someone else, the injured person will often have the right to recover money damages.
  • What is the difference between a criminal and civil lawsuit?
    In a criminal case, defendants are accused of violating a criminal law and are brought to trial by the government in order to determine their guilt or innocence in that crime. A criminal case, in seeking to determine responsibility for a crime, is also concerned with deciding upon the appropriate punishment to be handed down to the individual. Similar to a criminal case, civil litigation is concerned with establishing responsibility for an alleged offense. However, unlike a criminal case, the purpose of a civil trial is to determine whether the plaintiff is entitled to compensation and, if so, how much.
  • What type of personal injury claims do you handle?

    Dan Caplis Law handles many different types of serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, including the following.
