Call for free consultation

Over the course of my career, I have handled a very broad range of lawsuits and even divorces and criminal cases. That means I am no stranger to courtrooms and standing in front of both judges and juries. Ready Law does not operate by settling hundreds of cases that are all the same type, all handled the same way. I have made a career of being in court, and I have appeared in courtrooms all over the state of Colorado, on a wide range of issues and for a very diverse group of clients. If you think your case might benefit from someone who can think about what makes your case unique, call to schedule an appointment. My approach to bringing together deep legal knowledge and a variety of courtroom experiences could make all the difference in your ability to get your best possible outcome.

Why Choose Vern

Why Choose Vern Ready

Depth and breadth of knowledge.

No two cases are truly the same. My broad experience in litigation helps me see and understand how your case is different, rather than seeing it as just one in a stack of cases that all seem the same. I help plenty of people with car accident cases. But I am not exclusively a car accident lawyer. I accept and enjoy cases ranging from car accidents to truck accidents, slip and falls, and wrongful deaths, all without limiting myself to any one of those. As a result, I have gained in-depth knowledge of the laws pertaining to each of those cases, and I am also well-versed in Colorado injury law in general. That means I have probably helped someone with a case similar to yours, but it is crucial that neither you nor I buy into the idea that your case is just like any other.

Life Experience (Before Law)

I grew up in Georgia, detoured to Central America for a couple of years, then relocated to Colorado while serving in the U.S. Air Force.  I was the first member of my family to attend college. After serving in the U.S. Air Force,  I worked as a contractor in the defense community, then left to attend law school on a full scholarship at the University of Colorado School of Law in Boulder, CO. By the time I started law school I was married, had two children, and owned a home in the Denver area. Like many people, my path to where I am wasn’t straight or easy. But I believe that interesting paths in life can make for interesting, driven, and resourceful people. Call me now to see how I can put that life experience and drive to work for you.

Exceptional communication

Most clients who come to Ready Law after working with a larger law firm bring stories about a lack of communication with their previous attorney. To some extent, this can be explained by a person choosing a large law firm that shuffles their case around from attorney to attorney, or just assigns too many cases to each attorney. Of course they make more money by doing that. But overworked lawyers will find it harder to give each case their best effort. Those clients chose a law firm. They didn’t get too choose their lawyer. They grow even more frustrated by their inability to have reliable or meaningful communication with their assigned lawyer, and in some cases the lawyer assigned to their case may suddenly be switched with another.

At Ready Law, I personally handle each case from start to finish. You get a premier Colorado personal injury lawyer, that you chose, and you know who and what you are getting right from the start. I communicate with my clients every step of the way. When you first meet with me, we will sit down together (or by video chat or phone if you prefer) to go over the facts of your case, to discuss your options, and how the process of obtaining full compensation works, step by step.

One of my top priorities is being responsive to my clients. I’ve heard too many stories about clients waiting a week, or even two weeks to hear back from their attorneys after they call. I’ve even had some clients tell me their former lawyer only spoke with them once or twice the whole time they were working together. All these clients become accustomed to speaking with paralegals or case managers, and rarely have the opportunity to speak with their lawyer.  I answer calls. Usually my clients hear back from me within one business day.

Determined and passionate

Many law firms judge the success of their attorneys by monitoring the total number of hours billed or case files resolved. If a lawyer only sees you as a number, how much effort do you think he or she is likely to put into helping you to get your best possible outcome? How prepared will that lawyer be to talk with an insurance adjuster about the true impact your injury has had on your life, and to talk about you as a person who has suffered harm, rather than just a “claim”? The insurance adjuster will see your injury and your life as just another file on their desk. Why would you choose a lawyer who views your case the same way? What hope would you have of standing out and having your true story told?

I answer to my clients. I do not answer to a board of partners at a volume-driven law firm. Every case gets my best. I believe that everyone deserves to have the strongest representation possible, and that is exactly what my clients get. From the moment I take a case, I will use knowledge and skill to fight for you, but I will look for ways to show your humanity and set your case apart.

 
You Are Not A Number Here

You do not have to give up your personal dignity to pursue justice

You Are Not A Number Here

You do not have to give up your personal dignity to pursue justice. You do not have to work with someone who does not actually care about you. You can get justice working with an attorney who is authentic, compassionate, and interested in learning about you and your injuries.

You may not want to sue. You probably wish you did not have to sue to get fair compensation. However, the medical bills are unavoidable, as is the suffering you experience every day. Sometimes we do not have to file a lawsuit to get you full and fair compensation. Often, our thorough and meticulous investigation, followed by a persuasive demand letter and direct negotiation with insurance adjusters persuades the insurance company to offer full and fair compensation.

However, no amount of negotiating will be truly effective if the insurance company does not believe your case could go to trial. I am Ready and willing to take cases to trial when necessary, and I evaluate each case for likelihood of success at trial right from the start. Injury victims come to lawyers seeking justice, and sometimes justice has to come from a jury in a courtroom.

The process of negotiating a legal claim, and filing a lawsuit when needed, is tough on the person doing the suing. Most people never want to be in that position. Most of my clients never wanted to have to sue anyone. But it’s harder still when they are in physical pain, limited in their daily life by their injuries, and now they have an insurance company claiming they are faking, or at least exaggerating. Don’t go through that process with an inhuman and uncaring advocate. You will want someone who is authentic, approachable and available to help you through this process.

Ready Law is in the business of helping people, but we can only do that if you open the door by reaching out.

What Clients Say About Ready Law

Vern was very attentive and handled our case with the utmost care. He listened to us and moved at a pace that we were comfortable with. He communicated effectively and we understood the process we were going through.

A.M.

Vern was beyond thorough from the start. He came in the middle of my suit, and he changed the game completely. He made sure I was receiving the best care with doctors, information as well as legal advice. Highly recommend Vern to take care of you and your family!

S.K.

Vern Ready began representing my personal injury case over 2 years ago. My counsel was needing someone experienced with going to trial and eager to fight on my behalf.
I would bet that 2 years ago, Vern would’ve thought this case was ready to go to trial and be done in a matter of months instead of years but then the pandemic happened. Throughout the delays during this time, Vern always showed professionalism, determination, and an eagerness for being prepared. It is a great feeling knowing the person representing you is coming to battle with so much knowledge and desire to get the best result.

Throughout this process, I felt confident that Vern was there to give me all the facts and let me decide the path to take. The result to my case was great and I am confident that Vern was the reason for this. Worst case scenario, if I find myself in a situation where I need to call a personal injury attorney, Vern will be my first call.

M.S.

Patience, Experience, Knowledge, Results. Couldn’t ask for better professionalism. Definitely don’t pass this firm up

R.M.

I have never dealt with the legal system before, so when I hired Vern I was scared and upset and had no idea what was happening. But then immediately felt comfortable with him because he is extremely smart and confident and so I felt trust in him.

He reinforced my confidence in him by being very communicative and prompt. I would either get a hold of him immediately, or he would call me back soon, so I didn’t have to stress out about what was going on.

I would recommend Vern to anyone looking for an attorney.

J.Y.

If you are looking for a personal injury attorney this is the place you need to go. They are professional and actually care about you. I highly recommend ready law, especially if you have had a car accident or have had some other personal injury. You won’t be disappointed!

A.B.

I truly recommend Vern for counsel if you or someone you care for have been injured. Get Ready to meet an amazing lawyer who personally cares and helps those he meets. Vern is so much more than legal counsel. He is so passionate about helping those around him.

G.S.

If you are looking for an attorney who cares about you and your case, I highly recommend Vern. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, impressive attorney who gets right to work preparing the best case for you. If you have been injured, he is the best man for the job.

J.O.

Vern is extremely knowledgeable and does an excellent job of going above and beyond the status quo set by insurance companies. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a personal injury attorney.

P.M.

Vern is an outstanding personal injury attorney. He takes the time to get to know each client, and handles each case individually. You’ll never feel like “just a case number” with his firm representing you.

A.B.

Vernon is a credit to his profession and is clearly a person that has a solid moral compass. I called his firm to gather some legal advise and he called back within 20 minutes and volunteered 20 minutes of his time, giving me far more than expected. And to top it off suggested I may well be able to achieve my desired result without legal representation. Without doubt this is the easiest recommendation I’ve ever made.

Peter

Mr. Ready has a high level of integrity. He works diligently to find as much information as possible for his clients best outcome. He explains things clearly and takes his time to make sure the clients understand. My family and I are extremely happy and confident with Mr. Ready.

Michelle

Vern Ready is my family’s hero. My ex-wife called me on the phone at work. As she had a restraining order in place and I answered I soon found myself under arrest. This was very bad in more than one way. First I have position that requires I maintain a security clearance, second I am a single father, this could cost me my job and all that comes with employment, house, car, food, etc. Lucky for us I found Vernon Ready. This was my second arrest for a domestic violence/non-violent (DV) issue.

K. Black

Vernon Ready handled my child custody case. I was overwhelmed and he made the whole process seamless. He was approachable and made me feel that he was doing everything possible to win my case. He is affordable and conscience of my desire to stay with in my retainer and to not over charge me. I would highly recommend him and would hire him again if I ever needed an attorney in the future.

J.H.

I hired Vern Ready to represent me in a case… I found Vern to be very professional in his handling of my case. He spent a great deal of time with me going over everything that happened… He definitely went above and beyond what he had to do in order to help me win this case. This case could have easily gone the other way were it not for Vern being so thorough and not leaving a single detail uninvestigated. I really felt like he took a personal interest in the case and always believed in me.

S.C.

Vernon, I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you did in representing me on such short notice. You were very precise & straightforward. Your fee was very affordable & I felt like you really cared! You carefully listened to my requests & as a result, we were successful in winning my case! Without a shadow of a doubt, I will definitely recommend you to anyone who may be in need of a great lawyer.

S.C.

Not only did we get our “best case scenario” outcome, but we got it faster than we ever anticipated!! Thank you!

L.W.

Vernon handled my divorce case from start to finish with complete professionalism. He kept me up to date through the whole thing and brought my case to a favorable outcome in the end. I would recommend Vernon to anyone going through a divorce he took the extra time to explain to me the process advise me on what steps to take next and kept in constant communication with me every step of the way. This is my second divorce and the difference between my first attorney and Vernon was like night and day.
