What is the required minimum auto insurance In Colorado?Legal auto insurance coverage is: $25,000 per injured victim $15,000 minimum in property damage $50,000 per accident, no matter how many victims have been affected Since Colorado is a "fault" state, this means you can file a claim against the defendant driver's insurance carrier.

If the accident was somewhat my fault, can I still win my case?Yes. However, you may not win the maximum possible settlement amount.

Keep in mind that the court determines fault.
