Ramos Law

18-Wheeler, Semi-Truck and Commercial Truck Crashes

Crashes involving 18-wheelers, semi-trucks, big rigs, tractor-trailers, and other commercial vehicles can cause some of the most catastrophic injuries seen on Colorado roads. The enormous size and weight of commercial trucks can turn a collision into a life-changing event, resulting in traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, severe orthopedic trauma, permanent impairment, or wrongful death.

These cases can also be considerably more complex than ordinary auto accident claims. Depending on the circumstances, responsibility may extend beyond the driver to a trucking company, motor carrier, vehicle owner, maintenance provider, or other party. Driver conduct, company practices, maintenance, and other evidence related to commercial trucking operations may become important when determining how a crash occurred and who may be responsible.

For families confronting catastrophic injuries, the medical and legal foundation of Ramos Law provides a distinctive perspective. Led by Joseph Ramos, MD, JD, our team understands that evaluating a catastrophic injury requires looking beyond the collision itself to the medical consequences that may continue for years or a lifetime.

Aviation Law

Ramos Law's aviation practice focuses on two primary areas: aviation crashes and FAA medical certification matters.

We represent individuals and families affected by aircraft crashes and other aviation-related accidents, particularly when an accident results in catastrophic injury or wrongful death. These cases combine naturally with Ramos Law's experience addressing serious injuries and complex medical issues.

Ramos Law also assists pilots and aviation professionals with FAA medical certification matters. A pilot's medical certification can directly affect the ability to fly and, for professional aviators, a career and livelihood. Our foundation in both medicine and law provides an important perspective when medical conditions, medical records, and aviation regulatory requirements intersect.

Consumer Protection and A Different Perspective

Ramos Law represents consumers whose rights may have been violated, with a particular focus on the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA).

Our FCRA practice addresses matters involving credit reporting and consumer reports, including certain situations involving inaccurate information and other potential violations of consumers' rights under federal law.

Our EFTA practice includes certain disputes involving unauthorized electronic fund transfers and transactions. We help consumers understand their rights and evaluate potential legal remedies when financial institutions or other businesses may have failed to meet their obligations under federal consumer protection law.

A Different Perspective

Whether someone comes to Ramos Law following a catastrophic vehicle crash, the loss of a loved one, an aviation matter, or a violation of their consumer rights, we believe effective representation begins with understanding the person behind the case.

Every client, injury, and situation is different. Our attorneys provide personalized counsel designed to help clients understand their legal options and pursue accountability and appropriate compensation or other remedies based on the circumstances of their case.

For our personal injury clients in particular, understanding the medicine is an important part of understanding the case. A catastrophic injury can affect far more than today's medical bills. It may change someone's ability to work, care for a family, live independently, or enjoy the life they had before an accident.

That perspective starts at the top of Ramos Law with founder Joseph Ramos, MD, JD.

With nine Colorado locations and representation available throughout the state, Ramos Law is prepared to help people and families facing serious legal challenges understand their options and determine what comes next.

What makes us different makes us better.
