Auto Accident Attorneys Changing Lives Across the Nation
Accidents can happen anywhere, anytime. Their unpredictability, coupled
with the fact that they are preventable in a number of cases, makes them
one of the most devastating experiences for anyone to endure. Unfortunately,
auto accidents often result in painful and potentially life-changing injuries.
It is for this exact reason you need to rely on the services our car accident
lawyers in Salt Lake City, Utah to fight for you.
Car accidents can occur as a result of the following and more:
Distracted driving, such as texting or talking on the phone while driving
If you are the victim of any of the above, we can relentlessly pursue the
justice you deserve. Sadly, victims of car accidents are often left to
deal with insurance companies who make it difficult for you to obtain
the compensation you deserve, as they are unwilling or resistant to accommodate
your needs. Whether you financially suffering due to expensive medical
bills, loss of work and wages, or emotional distress, we can and will
help to the best of our ability until your
injury case is resolved.
What to Expect During Your Car Accident Case in Utah
Building an effective personal injury claim is a complex process that will
require a powerful law firm to fight for you. There are certain actions
that can endanger your entire accident claim, however, which is why you
should know what steps to take for an effective case. You should also
know what potential legal issues you may encounter as you start to file
your car accident injury claim:
Disputed Liability - It is quite common that the insurance company will
try to push back on the claim that you file and refuse liability for the
accident. Our legal team can help build a powerful case and ensure that
you receive the compensation you deserve.
Medical Bills - Organizing and understanding your medical bills associated
with the accident can be complex. Our team can help assess what damages
you are owed and who to pursue compensation against.
Property Damage Claims - One of the largest setbacks could be the complications
associated with getting compensation for their vehicle damage. If your
vehicle was totaled, this can cause an even greater complication for you.
Not only will getting to work and around town be difficult, Our legal
team will do everything we can to help you get back on your feet.
Utah's Liability Laws
Utah is one of several states that has a "no-fault" insurance
system for auto accident cases. If two parties are involved in an accident,
one party will be at fault. In a no-fault state, however, each individual
insurance company will compensate the policyholder for the injuries they
suffered, regardless of who was at fault for the accident.
This type of insurance policy does still provide the opportunity for the
victim party to file a claim. Individuals can sue for non-economic damages,
but there may be limits and constraints in place. It is for this reason
that you should work with a knowledgeable attorney to build your case
and pursue the compensation you deserve.
State Laws: Responsibilities of Drivers
In Utah, drivers are held to certain requirements in order to keep everyone
safe. Requirements are listed in the Utah Driver Handbook, which can be found
here. There are several guidelines outlined in the handbook, such as remaining
at least two seconds following distance from the vehicle in front of you
on the freeway. It also provides rules on how to pass a vehicle as well
as when you should never pass.
In many cases, irreverence to the rules can result in a tragic collision.
If you are a victim of a driver who disregarded a rule, contact our team at once.
Are You an Injured Passenger?
In most circumstances, the driver involved in an accident is the one pursuing
compensation against another driver. When it is a passenger, however,
there may be additional issues and challenges presented.
Whether the crash was the fault of the driver whose car the passenger was
in, or the other vehicle, you will need to take action to pursue just
compensation. Our legal team has successfully navigated through similar
situations in the past and has a solid handle on assisting all members
of a motor vehicle accident. We can conduct a comprehensive investigation
aimed at determining the liable party and then building a case to achieve
restitution from the damages suffered.
When Should I Contact an Attorney?
If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident, being clear on the
timeline is important to get the best results out of your case. It is
recommended that you contact a car accident lawyer as soon as possible
after an accident. Having an attorney guide you throughout the entirety
of your case is essential to avoid self incriminating yourself. A lawyer
can also walk you through the proper order and steps to follow after an accident.
Do not speak with the insurance company prior to speaking with an attorney.
The insurance company is not there to protect your best interests and
will try to take what you say and use it against you to decrease your payout.
Additionally, there is a statute of limitations for personal injury cases.
If you do not hire an attorney within a reasonable amount of time, you
may lose the opportunity to file a claim at all. Once you get in touch
with our law firm, we can provide you with the information you need to
begin pursuing a claim for compensation.
Statute of Limitations for Accidents in Utah
There is a window of time in which a victim is permitted to take legal
action if they have suffered injury in a car accident. This is called
the “statute of limitations” and will be different in each
state. In Utah, the car accident victim has four years from the time that
the crash occurred to file their claim. If an attempt is made to file
beyond this period, the court will reject it outright. There are a very
limited number of situations for which an extension can be obtained. Reach
out to our firm as soon as possible if you wish to file a claim for compensation
after a car accident in Salt Lake City, Utah.
