Car Accidents in Utah
Utah’s highways, including Interstate 15, see a high volume of daily traffic and are often the sites of serious accidents. High-speed collisions on interstates frequently result in severe injuries due to the force of impact. Each year, thousands of crashes on Utah’s highways lead to hospitalization, lost income, and lasting health issues for those involved.
Many people are unsure what to do right after a crash. Below are some important legal steps to take following an accident:
- Report the Accident Immediately: Calling 911 ensures that a police report is created and medical assistance is dispatched. This documentation is often essential for any insurance or legal claim that may follow.
- Collect Evidence: If it’s safe to do so, gather photos of the scene, vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Also, collect names and contact details from any witnesses. These pieces of evidence can support your case.
- Seek Medical Attention Immediately: Even if injuries seem minor, getting checked by a doctor is crucial. Some injuries take hours or days to become apparent, and medical records play a key role in building a strong claim.
- Avoid Making Statements to Insurance Adjusters Without Counsel: Insurance companies may try to settle quickly or get you to say something that could be used against you. It’s wise to speak with a lawyer first before discussing the incident with insurers.
- Consult an Attorney Right Away: Legal deadlines and the complexities of personal injury law make early consultation important. An attorney can ensure your rights are protected and help maximize your financial recovery.
