Peer-selected Barrister’s Best Award recognizes decades of advocacy for injured Coloradans 

Denver, Colorado — Kyle Bachus, founding partner of Bachus & Schanker, has been named the 2026 recipient of the Barrister’s Best Award for Best Personal Injury Lawyer by Law Week Colorado. The honor is a peer-selected recognition celebrating excellence, professionalism, and achievement within Colorado’s legal community, and reflects Bachus’s decades of dedication to advocating for individuals and families across the state. 

Law Week Colorado’s Barrister’s Best awards are determined by the votes of fellow legal professionals across the state, distinguishing the recognition from paid or self-submitted rankings. Winners are selected based on demonstrated skill, ethical practice, and standing among their peers. 

“I’m deeply honored by this recognition. It’s especially meaningful because it comes from fellow lawyers who have practiced alongside us and across the courtroom from us over the years. But what matters most is the opportunity to help Colorado families following the death or serious injury of a loved one. Earning their trust and standing beside them is an honor we never take for granted.” – Kyle Bachus 

Bachus has practiced law since 1992 and co-founded Bachus & Schanker in 1996, building the firm into one of Colorado’s most trusted personal injury practices. The firm has recovered over $1.5 billion in verdicts and settlements on behalf of clients, and in 2013 Bachus led the trial team that secured the largest personal injury verdict in the State of Colorado that year. He has been named to the Colorado Super Lawyers list every year from 2007 to 2025, was recognized by Law Week Colorado as the state’s Top Class Action Lawyer in 2014, and has been named by Lawdragon as one of the Top 500 Leading Personal Injury Lawyers in America. 

“I’ve had the privilege of practicing with Kyle for more than three decades, and what sets him apart isn’t just his ability as a trial lawyer—it’s the way he cares about the people he represents. No one outworks Kyle, and he never forgets that every case represents a family counting on us. Awards are meaningful, but those that come from lawyers who know his work are different. They reflect the respect he has earned over more than three decades of serving Colorado families. – Darin Schanker
