Colorado Personal Injury Lawyer
Serving Ethiopians
Lionheart Injury Law is the only personal injury law firm in Colorado with a team dedicated to serving Colorado's Habesha community, with a team that speaks Amharic.
Endorsed by the Colorado Ethiopian Community
Metro Denver is home to one of the largest Ethiopian and Eritrean communities in the United States, tens of thousands of people, centered along East Colfax, in southeast Denver, and across Aurora. Our community drives this city, literally. We make up the majority of Colorado's Uber, Lyft, taxi, trucking, delivery, and health care transportation drivers. And when one of us is hurt in a crash, the insurance company's playbook is to treat us unfairly, because of language barriers, unfamiliarity with the American legal system, or the fear that pursuing a claim could cause problems.
Lionheart Injury Law was founded with a purpose to change that. We are the only law firm in Colorado specifically serving the Ethiopian, East African, and broader African community, with a team that speaks Amharic. We care deeply about this community, and you can rest assured that we will fight for every dollar that you are owed.

The Types of Cases We Handle for the Ethiopian Community
Many Ethiopians spend their working lives on the road as drivers. As a result, our community is at a heightened risk of getting into a car accident as compared to others. We spend 10x as much time on the road. We handle every kind of auto accident case, and specialize specifically in rideshare accidents where we represent the drivers or passengers.
Uber & Lyft accidents, as a driver or a passenger. Thousands of Habesha drivers also work at the airport, and we can help those drivers as well. If you were hit while driving rideshare or a taxi, you have a real claim, and usually are covered by at least $200,000 of insurance coverage. Car accidents of every kind, including truck accidents, including community members driving commercially who are hit by other trucks. And wrongful death cases, where we fight for families with the seriousness that loss deserves.
We serve the entire state of Colorado, with our deepest roots in Denver and Aurora, which is home to much of our community.
What You Should Know About Your Rights
It costs nothing to hire us. We work on contingency, no money up front, ever, and no fee at all unless we win your case. The consultation is free and confidential.
Making a claim is not "suing your friend." In almost every case, the money comes from an insurance company, not from the driver's family or pocket. Insurance exists for exactly this. We keep the focus where it belongs: on the insurer.
You don't need papers to have rights. Your immigration status does not prevent you from recovering compensation for an injury in Colorado, and it is not something the insurance company gets to hold over you.
No health insurance? We solve that. We connect you with excellent doctors who treat you now and are paid from the settlement later; you pay nothing out of pocket while you heal.
