Colorado Requirements That Make Denver Malpractice Cases Complex

Certificate of Review

Colorado law requires that a Certificate of Review be filed with your lawsuit or within 60 days of filing. This certificate requires a qualified medical expert to confirm that the healthcare provider deviated from the accepted standard of care. Missing this deadline results in automatic dismissal. Zobel Legal Group handles this filing on every case from day one.

Statute of Limitations

Most medical malpractice claims in Colorado must be filed within two years of the date the injury was discovered, with an absolute three-year cap from the date of the negligent act. For children under six, the deadline extends to their eighth birthday.

Non-Economic Damage Cap

Colorado currently caps non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases at $300,000. Economic damages — medical expenses, lost wages, future care costs — are not capped. We ensure every economic loss is fully documented and pursued.
