Types of Utah Personal Injury Cases We Handle

Insurance companies collect premiums with the promise of protecting us in the event of an accident. However, when it’s time to pay valid claims, the story often changes. When insurance companies refuse to offer reasonable settlements, accident victims deserve a skilled advocate to fight for their rights. 

That’s where we step in. Our Utah personal injury lawyers are experienced in handling various case types, including dog bites, medical malpractice, slip and falls, premises liability, and all kinds of auto accidents. 

Car Accidents

In 2023, there were over 60,000 crashes in Utah. These accidents resulted in 18,501 injuries and 250 fatalities. Utah is a no-fault insurance state, so you must first file a claim with your insurance company to recover compensation. Once you exhaust your no-fault benefits, you can also file an auto liability claim and personal injury lawsuit. Our skilled Utah personal injury lawyers can advise you on the best path toward compensation.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists have little to protect them in accidents, leading to higher rates of fatal injuries than other motor vehicle crashes. In 2023, there were 1,139 motorcycle accidents in Utah, resulting in 980 injuries and 41 deaths. Survivors often face catastrophic injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) and paralysis.

Truck Accidents

Due to their size and weight, trucks often cause severe injuries when involved in crashes. Despite numerous state and federal laws regulating the trucking industry, accidents still occur due to factors like drowsy driving, driving under the influence, and aggressive driving.

Trucking companies typically carry substantial insurance policies to cover accidents. If you’ve been involved in a crash caused by a negligent truck driver or trucking company, you deserve full and fair compensation.

What Do Personal Injury Firms in Utah Charge?

People injured in an accident that was someone else’s fault should not have to struggle to find high-quality legal representation. We understand that not everyone can pay for legal representation up front.

That’s why we offer free consultations and a no-win, no-fee guarantee. If we win your case, our fees are calculated as a pre-negotiated percentage of the compensation we secure on your behalf. Otherwise, you pay nothing.

How Do I Know If I Have a Case?

To pursue a personal injury claim, you must have provable damages. People with severe injuries and significant financial harm may collect considerable compensation. The strength of your evidence also plays a crucial role in determining whether you have a valid claim.

The best way to determine if you have a strong case is to speak with our experienced Utah personal injury lawyers. We invite you to a free consultation to discuss your legal options and help you understand the process of seeking compensation.

Utah Statute of Limitations

Utah law limits the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Utah is generally four years from the accident date. Certain claims have shorter filing periods, such as:

  • Suing a government entity – One year to file a notice of claim, and one year to file a lawsuit if your claim is rejected.

The statute of limitations may be paused (“tolled”) for minors until they turn 18 and mentally incapacitated plaintiffs until their condition ceases. The countdown may also be paused if the defendant evades your claim or leaves the state.

Extensions aren’t guaranteed. In most cases, the judge will dismiss your claim if you don’t file within the statute of limitations. Don’t take that chance. Our accomplished personal injury lawyers in Utah are ready to thoroughly investigate your case and file your paperwork on time.

Injuries Sustained 

Victims can sustain many kinds of injuries in motor vehicle crashes and other accidents. Some require significant medical intervention and prolonged recovery periods. Common injuries we see in personal injury claims include:

  • Contusions and lacerations
  • Fractured bones
  • Head, neck, and back injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Internal bleeding and organ damage

It’s crucial to seek medical attention after an accident, even if you don’t feel seriously injured. High adrenaline after an unexpected accident can mask pain, and injuries like internal bleeding and TBIs don’t always show immediate symptoms. Monitor yourself for signs of a hidden injury after an accident, such as lingering headaches, forgetfulness, mood changes, and back pain.

How Long Will My Personal Injury Case Take To Settle?

It is difficult to predict how long your case will take to settle without knowing its specific circumstances. Every case is different, and the timeline depends on factors like establishing liability, gathering available evidence, and the defendant’s willingness to negotiate in good faith. The average timeline for injury claims involves several phases:

  • Finding an attorney
  • Collecting and evaluating evidence
  • Filing a claim
  • Following your medical treatment plan
  • Discovery (i.e., exchanging evidence with the defendant)
  • Negotiation and settlement
  • Trial if a fair settlement is not reached

Delays in settling a claim can arise due to incomplete medical records, lowball settlement offers, and combative defendants. Our skilled Utah personal injury attorneys can gather all available evidence to substantiate your claim. You can count on us to defend your rights. Contact us today for a free consultation.
