After a serious injury I have been told that my case was pointless because of the cap on rec. centers and other city properties what should I do next?

Linda Jane Chalat
Answered by attorney Linda Jane Chalat (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Chalat Hatten & Banker PC
As you have already been informed, the cap in Colorado for damages in a tort claim against the state is $150,000.  As a practical matter, most personal injury lawyers will handle a case for a fee of one-third of the cap so you should consider why lawyers have refused your case.   As to your question, you certainly can file the claim on your own but first you must satisfy the requirements for filing a suit against the state.  These are provided in the Governmental Immunity Act (GIA) which requires  notice to be given to the alleged defendants and their counsel. The relevant GIA notice provision states that: Any person claiming to have suffered an injury by a public entity or by an employee thereof while in the course of such employment shall file a written notice as provided in this section within one hundred and eighty days after the date of the discovery of the injury, regardless of whether the person then knew all of the elements of a claim or of a cause of action for such injury. Compliance with the provisions of this section shall be a jurisdictional prerequisite to any action brought under the provisions of this article, and failure of compliance shall forever bar any such action. Section 24-10-109(1), C.R.S. (l988 Repl. Vol. 10A) The subsequent sections provide the details for adequate notice.  Please note that you must give this notice within 180 days of your accident or you are barred from filing a lawsuit.  Good luck.

I waited 26 days to notify the premise owner of my fall are they still liable?

Answered by attorney J. Todd Tenge
Personal Injury lawyer at Tenge Law Firm, LLC
The 26 days is not a problem. You would still have a case under the Colorado Premises Liability Statute as long as you are able to prove that the gym (and/or owner of the premises if not the gym) knew or should have known of the dangerous icy conditions which existed on the property and which caused your fall and injuries.

Who is liable if someone falls outside the building I run my business in?

Personal Injury lawyer at Bulman Law Associates PLLC
Maybe both of you. Depends on your lease. Typically, the lessee(you) agrees to be responsible for snow removal, ice, etc. If it is a hole in the sidewalk you, the owner, and the city may share responsibility. If you are sued, immediately turn it over to your premises liability insurance company.
