Spinal Cord Injury: Attorneys for Colorado
A spinal cord injury can be terrifying: amidst the pain of an impact, or perhaps when waking after suffering a trauma you barely remember, you suddenly realized you cannot move your legs or arms. After the initial shock subsides, you will eventually realize that this injury doesn't have to keep you from living a full enjoyable life-just a different one from the one you had planned.

At Wills & Adams, LLP, we are well-qualified to represent and counsel any client with a spinal cord injury, because one of our attorneys-Drew Wills sustained such an injury during a skiing accident in late 2004. Over time, he worked through acute care and rehabilitation to return to service of his clients and profession as an exceptional lawyer and advocate for injured individuals.
Our attorneys have direct personal and professional experience with spinal cord injuries and the medical, legal and insurance issues and the challenges presented by spinal cord trauma.
Always an outdoor recreation enthusiast, Drew now enjoys many sports including hand cycling, mono-skiing, scuba diving and swimming. He is an active supporter and participant in fundraising and recreational activities sponsored by Craig Hospital in Denver. And more importantly, he is able to help clients travel the road from injury through rehabilitation, recovery and new challenges and abilities.
Recovering Compensation for a Spinal Cord Injury
Personal Injury claims are important legal matters. As a result, compensation should only be sought when you have a meritorious or legitimate legal claim. If you do have such a claim, please accept our sympathies for your misfortune and our sincere wish that you move forward with both optimism and hope.
Our law firm develops personal relationships with clients, allowing us to better understand the impact their injuries have had on their lives so that we can best portray that impact to the jury at trial. Our attorneys are effective, compassionate, respectful and diligent, with access to cutting edge technology and effective trial skills.
Whether your spinal cord injury results in temporary disability, paraplegia or quadriplegia, our firm can handle your case with skill and empathy. For a free initial consultation, contact Wills & Adams, LLP online or call (719) 633-8500.
Skiing Accidents: Attorneys for The Mountains
As a result of the new high capacity and high speed lifts, more skiers are hitting the slopes and tragically, one another. The different cadence between skiers and snow boarders also presents a greater likelihood for serious accidents and injuries. Skiing accidents occur with greater regularity than they have historically. The trauma often results in devastating injuries. We should know-our law office shares a love for outdoor recreation with our skiing accident clients, and one of our attorneys suffered a spinal cord injury while skiing in 2004.
At Wills & Adams LLP we handle skier to skier collisions and injuries resulting from defective or improperly run ski lifts and from defective ski equipment.

The injuries resulting from skier collisions or lift injuries can be traumatic and debilitating. They often result in serious fractures, head injuries, crush injuries to the facial bones, back injuries and even spinal cord injuries and paralysis.
The Colorado Ski Act C.R.S. §33-44-101 et seq. governs the duties of skiers and to one another and the responsibility of ski resorts.
What if the other skier is from another state?
Because Colorado's slopes draw in skiers from throughout the nation the two skiers involved in the collision might live in different states. In such cases, we file the injury claims in federal court under "diversity of citizenship" jurisdiction. The attorneys at Wills & Adams, LLP are licensed to and have experience arguing before state and federal courts, and they have a great deal of experience in both.
