Lakewood Personal Injury Lawyer
You need a personal injury lawyer who will take the time to get to know you personally and understand how your injuries have impacted your life. As a small, family-owned law firm, Ready Law offers a different experience than the big firms that see your case as only one cog in a big machine. We go the extra mile to meet with you in your home or office in Lakewood, or any location convenient to you. Our office is conveniently located near I-25 and County Line Road in Centennial, but we regularly travel all over the Denver metro area to meet our clients, visit injury scenes, or attend court appearances. We are happy to meet you where you are. If an attorney isn’t willing to get out of their office chair to sign a new client, will they be willing to personally visit the scene of the crash if needed? Will they come to your house to speak with your family where that is appropriate? I strive to do more with your case, and sometimes meeting you where you are right from the start can help with that.
Over my nearly 20-year career as a lawyer, I have extensive experience appearing in Jefferson County and Denver County courtrooms, and am familiar with the judges and juries. I have also represented many clients who are Lakewood residents or who have been injured in Lakewood, whether in a vehicle collision or another injury that is the result of someone else’s negligence. Ready Law handles a variety of cases, and you can find a full list on our website here. And always, we encourage you to call us. If you have been injured and you are unsure whether we handle your type of case or how we can help, consultations are FREE and zero-obligation. Our only priority is to be helpful to you and help you navigate what’s next.
Lakewood Car Crash Trends
Although we handle much more than car crash injuries, we have represented many injured Lakewood residents who were injured while driving, walking, bicycling, or otherwise navigating Lakewood’s busy streets. It may not be reassuring to know that Consumer Affairs ranked Lakewood as the 27th city in the US with the worst drivers in 2025. In 2026, the picture looks like it’s not improving, with Lakewood landing at spot #19 year-to-date. Lakewood is home to some of the busiest roads in the Denver metro area, with Wadsworth Boulevard, 6th Avenue, and Colfax Avenue acting as major corridors for residents and commuters alike. According to CDOT, in 2025, 2,600 crashes happened in Lakewood, with over 640 traffic crashes occurring along Wadsworth Boulevard alone. That is almost 25% of the city’s crashes occurring along just one road! Lakewood also has a high rate of impaired or drunk driving crashes, with the city averaging 4.48 fatalities per 100,000 people that involved someone driving under the influence. That number is 2.3 times the same statistic for all of the U.S.

Don’t just become one case in a large machine that sees you as a number. Vern Ready works your case personally from the first appointment to the last court date.
