What Do Personal Injury Lawyers Do?

Personal injury attorneys in Utah are dedicated to helping those who have suffered an injury due to the negligence of another party. These attorneys specialize in representing clients who have been injured as a result of car accidents, slip and fall incidents, medical malpractice, wrongful death, or any other type of accident caused by someone else’s recklessness or carelessness. They understand the laws surrounding personal injury claims and can help their clients navigate the legal process from start to finish. Personal injury lawyers will fight for their client's rights and ensure that they receive fair compensation for pain and suffering resulting from the incident.

A Utah personal injury lawyer may also help you:

  • File a personal injury claim: A personal injury lawyer in Utah can help guide their client through the process of filing an official personal injury claim with the court and ensure that all the required documents are filed correctly and on time.
  • Outline legal options: An experienced attorney will explain to their clients what legal options they have in regard to seeking compensation for damages suffered due to someone else's negligence. They may also advise the client on which option is most suitable for their case.
  • Negotiate settlement amounts: If a settlement is reached, lawyers may be able to negotiate better terms than those initially offered by insurance companies or other parties involved in the lawsuit. This ensures that their client receives fair compensation for pain and suffering caused by another party’s negligence.
  • Representing clients in court proceedings: In some cases, it may be necessary for attorneys to represent their clients during trial proceedings or negotiations as part of a civil lawsuit or criminal case involving personal injury claims.
  • Investigate incidents thoroughly: Lawyers often conduct extensive investigations into the accidents or incidents that caused injuries to their clients. This helps the attorney present compelling evidence when arguing a case before a jury or judge.
  • Advise on meeting Utah personal injury statutes of limitation: An attorney can provide advice on the legal time limits for filing a claim in Utah. This will help ensure that their client’s rights are protected and help ensure that their lawsuit is properly filed within the time limits set out by the state. Meeting the statute of limitations is essential to recovering fair compensation.

What to Do After an Accident

After you’ve been injured, it’s of the utmost importance that you seek medical attention to treat your injuries. Even if you can’t detect any injuries at first, only a doctor can fully assess you and diagnose any issues you have, as well as determine if something as small as a headache is a symptom of a more serious issue.

It’s also important to try to document your injuries and the scene of the accident as thoroughly as possible. Taking photos of injuries and damage, including car damage if you were in an auto accident, is helpful, as well as gathering statements from any witnesses present at the scene. If you’re unable to collect this evidence, this is one of many reasons why it’s beneficial to have a personal injury lawyer on your side.

Our law firm has the resources and experience needed to investigate accidents and collect evidence that can be used to strengthen your claim. Additionally, our lawyers can also handle communication with insurance companies so you don’t have to worry about having something you said to an adjuster used against you to deny you compensation.

Call our Eastern Utah personal injury attorneys to get started on your case at (970) 292-7171. We go above and beyond to make our clients feel understood and their goals and needs recognized.

Our team has helped clients recover damages including:

  • Medical bills
  • Burial and funeral costs
  • Lost wages or earning capacity
  • Lost income
  • Disability
  • Property damage
  • Loss of companionship
  • Pain and suffering

Don’t take a chance on squandering your opportunity to achieve the full amount of compensation you’re entitled to. Only a law firm has what it takes to defend your rights and help you on the path to recovery.

The more serious injuries are, the more expensive it can be to recover from them. Burns, for example, can easily cost tens of thousands of dollars to treat in extensive surgeries, skin grafts, and hospital stays. Individuals may also need to miss weeks or even months of work to heal at home or in the hospital, and some have to quit their jobs if they no longer can perform their daily responsibilities.

Stay In The Know

  • How Much Time Do I Have to File an Auto Accident Lawsuit?
    In most cases, you have around three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. The deadline can be prolonged if you discovered the injury later. If you are planning to sue a government establishment, you may be required to file a claim within a few months after the accident.
  • If the Accident Was Somewhat My Fault, Can I Still Win My Case?
    Yes. However, you may not win the maximum possible settlement amount. Under Colorado's fault principles, your damages will be decreased in proportion to your fault. So, if you were 30% at fault, then your damages would be reduced by that amount in the claims. Keep in mind that the court determines fault.
  • What Is the Required Minimum Auto Insurance In Colorado?
    Legal auto insurance coverage is: $25,000 per injured victim $15,000 minimum in property damage $50,000 per accident, no matter how many victims have been affected Since Colorado is a "fault" state, this means you can file a claim against the defendant driver's insurance carrier. However, if the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, there are steps you can take to get around that.
