About Our Aurora Personal Injury Practice
Aurora is Colorado's third-largest city and one of the most geographically expansive, spanning parts of three counties: Arapahoe County, Adams County, and Douglas County. Originally incorporated in 1891 as the town of Fletcher, the city was renamed Aurora in 1907 and has grown into a diverse, vibrant community that is integral to the Denver metropolitan area. With major highways, a sprawling footprint, and hundreds of thousands of daily commuters, Aurora unfortunately sees a significant number of traffic accidents each year.
Anderson Hemmat has served injury victims across the Denver metro area since 2002. Our attorneys are experienced with the court systems in Arapahoe and Adams counties, the insurance companies that operate in this region, and the unique challenges that Aurora accident victims face. We offer free case evaluations and work on a contingency fee basis.
Dangerous Roads and Highways in Aurora
Aurora's extensive road network includes some of the most dangerous stretches of highway in the Denver metro area:
Interstate 225: The I-225 corridor through Aurora is one of the most dangerous stretches of highway in the Denver metro area. A 10-mile stretch from East Smith Road to South Yosemite Street recorded 19 fatal crashes according to CDOT data. The section near East 2nd Avenue has been particularly deadly, with Aurora city officials documenting seven deaths in car crashes at one spot in a nine-month period.
Interstate 70: Runs along Aurora's northern boundary, carrying heavy commercial and passenger traffic between Denver and points east.
E-470: The toll highway curves through eastern Aurora, connecting I-25 south of the city to DIA to the north. High-speed travel on this corridor contributes to severe accidents.
Colfax Avenue: One of the most traveled roads in the metro area, Colfax runs east-west through Aurora and is a frequent site of accidents, particularly at its intersection with Chambers Road where high-speed collisions are common.
Chambers Road and East Iliff Avenue: This intersection consistently ranks among the most accident-prone in Aurora due to high traffic volume, multiple turn lanes, and frequent red-light running.
Havana Street and Parker Road: Major north-south arterials through Aurora that see heavy traffic and frequent collisions, particularly at intersections with east-west corridors like Mississippi Avenue and Alameda Avenue.
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Aurora
Our experienced personal injury attorneys handle all types of injury cases for Aurora residents:
Car Accidents: From I-225 highway collisions to intersection crashes on Colfax and Chambers, we represent Aurora car accident victims in claims involving distracted driving, drunk driving, speeding, and reckless driving.
Truck Accidents: I-70 and E-470 carry significant commercial truck traffic through Aurora. Truck accident claims are complex and often involve multiple liable parties including the trucking company, driver, and equipment manufacturers.
Motorcycle Accidents: Aurora's busy roadways and multi-lane intersections are particularly hazardous for motorcyclists. We fight for fair compensation for motorcycle accident injuries.
Pedestrian Accidents: High-traffic corridors like Colfax Avenue and areas near RTD light rail stations see frequent pedestrian accidents.
Catastrophic Injuries: When accidents result in traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, paralysis, or amputations, our attorneys pursue the maximum compensation needed for long-term care and recovery.
Wrongful Death: We provide compassionate legal representation to families who have lost loved ones in Aurora accidents.
Premises Liability: Slip and fall injuries at Aurora shopping centers, commercial properties, and apartment complexes.
Aurora Court Jurisdiction
Because Aurora spans three counties, the jurisdiction for your personal injury case depends on where the accident occurred. Accidents in southern Aurora are typically filed in Arapahoe County District Court (18th Judicial District), while accidents in northern Aurora fall under Adams County District Court (17th Judicial District). A small portion of southeastern Aurora falls in Douglas County (18th Judicial District). Our attorneys are experienced in all of these court systems and will ensure your case is filed in the correct jurisdiction.
Aurora Medical Resources
Aurora is home to the UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital at the Anschutz Medical Campus, one of the top academic medical centers in the nation. The Anschutz Medical Campus is a major healthcare hub that provides access to world-class trauma care, neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, and rehabilitation services. Having access to this level of medical care is critical for accident victims with serious injuries, and thorough documentation of medical treatment is a key component of building a strong personal injury claim.
