Colorado Comparative Fault

Colorado follows a modified comparative fault rule (C.R.S. Section 13-21-111). If you were partially at fault, your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are 50% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Colorado is generally 3 years from the date of the accident.
