Law Firm of Mark S. Hanchey and Ben Peterson - Colorado Springs Criminal Defense and Personal Injury Lawyers

🚧 Spring and summer roadwork is everywhere in Colorado Springs—but construction zones can bring more than just delays. Car accidents in these areas often happen in seconds. Sudden lane shifts, unclear signage, or debris left behind can turn an ordinary drive into a serious collision. And when that happens, figuring out who is responsible isn’t always straightforward. Liability in construction zone accidents can involve multiple parties—from drivers to contractors, and even government agencies. Colorado follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning responsibility can be shared, and compensation may depend on each party’s role in the crash. That’s why documenting the scene is so important. Photos, witness statements, and police reports can make a meaningful difference when building a claim. The Law Firm of Mark S. Hanchey and Ben Peterson, based in Colorado Springs, helps individuals navigate these complex situations. From investigating unsafe road conditions to dealing with multiple insurance companies, their team works to protect your rights and pursue fair compensation. If you’ve been involved in a construction-related accident, don’t wait to understand your options. Reach out today for guidance on your next steps. ⚖️
