Where would my case be heard?
Colorado Springs has two major military PFAS contamination sources — Peterson Space Force Base and Fort Carson — that have contaminated municipal water serving the region's 500,000-plus residents. Colorado Springs is one of the top-priority PFAS contamination markets in the country with significant ongoing litigation potential and minimal law firm local content coverage.
Colorado personal injury claims are governed by C.R.S. § 13-80-102, providing a 2-year limitations period from discovery. Federal PFAS claims proceed in MDL 2873 (D.S.C.). Peterson Space Force Base and Fort Carson, both in Colorado Springs, are the primary military PFAS contamination sources. The Colorado Springs Utilities municipal water system has documented PFAS contamination connected to military base sources. Buckley Space Force Base in Aurora is an additional contamination site in the metro area. Colorado residents have a 2-year limitations period.
