This is only a... View More 
I was initially evicted, but worked with another lawyer to get the eviction removed. I still had to leave my apartment with only a days notice and have since been homeless. I would like to sue them, but I am having difficulty finding what type of lawyer I need to find to help me.

A Colorado attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. I'm sorry this happened to you. You ask what type of lawyer you need. Out of the categories you chose, landlord-tenant is probably the best place to start. Personal injury attorneys aren't likely to have... View More
The police report we were given has his name, phone number, address, and the information for the owner of the car (his mom.) It seems like the only way to ask him for his insurance is to call, send a letter, or go to his house. I wasn't sure if any of those options are ok to do.

The statute of limitations has not expired for a personal injury lawsuit against another party. I would like to file a lawsuit on his behalf. How do I represent him. Do I go to probate court to become the executor of his estate?

I'm not a Colorado attorney but the statute of limitations for any claim of his would appear to be long gone. Even a contract claim has a six year statute of limitations.
Check with a Colorado attorney as to the statute of limitations for whatever claim you have in mind, but before... View More

The statute of limitations for injury claims in Colorado is two years. It may be longer if you were under 18 at the time, but if you were older it would be two years. Why not call an attorney who handles fall cases to see? Many give free consultations.

Maybe.
The physical force used by your friend on his ex girlfriend would qualify as misdemeanor third degree assault, and possibly felony second degree assault for the pressure applied to the neck in the headlock. However, conduct that may qualify as assault (or even homicide) can be... View More
