Hiring Todd Tenge and his team was a great decision. They helped me navigate dealing with two insurance companies; getting reimbursed for medical expenses for my neck injury after being T-boned in a high-speed motor vehicle accident. More importantly, they helped me realized that I had been concussed; despite what my doctor initially said early on. Healing is like peeling back layers of the onion, and my brain wasn't yelling as loudly as my neck. Once we tuned into that, his team provided a great network of medical providers who worked on a lien basis. It turned out that my undiagnosed concussion is now a chronic mild traumatic brain injury; but I was able to form new neural pathways with their medical referrals. My UIM settlement was for the full amount thanks to the amazing demand letter they put forth. I am SO thankful for this team. Without their compassion, I would have put this all down to "stress" and tried to soldier on without the right treatment.

After experiencing a serious automobile accident resulting in significant personal injury, I naively believed that my insurance company would stand by me. This was far from true as repeated calls from them pressuring me to sign off on a settlement no where near consummate to my injuries.One call from me to the Tenge law firm ended all of that fast. Todd, Colin, and Brenda were incredible in their support, professionalism, and focus in my legal representation. They carefully guided me through the process resulting a significant financial settlement addressing my numerous medical needs and treatments. If you are unfortunate enough to experience a serious accident resulting in injury, look no further than the Tenge law firm, one of the finest in anywhere in the land right here in Colorado.

Tenge Law Firm was a lifesaver during one of the most challenging times of my life. After my accident in February 2024, I was left with severe back and neck issues that affected me for months. The physical pain was overwhelming, but the financial strain from missing work made it even harder to cope. I didn’t know how I was going to recover, let alone deal with the at-fault insurance company. From the moment I reached out to Tenge Law Firm, I knew I was in good hands. Brenda, the paralegal on my case, was incredibly compassionate and kept me informed every step of the way. Her attention to detail and constant communication made the process much less stressful. Colin, the attorney handling my case, went above and beyond to ensure I was compensated for my pain, suffering, and financial losses. His diligence and expertise truly made the difference. Thanks to their hard work—and the leadership of J. Todd Tenge—I was able to secure a settlement that far exceeded my expectations!
