Car Accidents in Utah
Vehicle crashes in Utah are a frequent concern, particularly during busy commuting hours. According to data from the Utah Highway Safety Office, the state experiences an average of 170 crashes every day. Areas with high vehicle and pedestrian activity, such as Monroe Boulevard in Ogden, can become hotspots for accidents. Drivers are urged to remain alert and drive cautiously at all times to prevent these incidents.
After being in a crash, many victims face challenges they didn’t expect. Here are some important things to know about dealing with insurance companies after an accident:
- Insurance Companies May Downplay Your Injuries: It’s common for adjusters to question the seriousness of your injuries or suggest preexisting conditions are to blame. They may attempt to minimize payouts, even when legitimate medical documentation is provided.
- Early Settlement Offers May Be Low: Victims are often pressured to accept a settlement quickly. These early offers are usually far below what a case is worth—especially if long-term treatment or missed work is involved. Once accepted, additional compensation is typically no longer an option.
- Recorded Statements Can Be Used Against You: Insurers often ask for a recorded statement shortly after the crash. What you say, even if well-intentioned, can be misinterpreted and used to weaken your claim. Always consult with an attorney before making any formal statements.
- Medical Bill Delays and Denials Are Common: Insurance companies may delay payments for medical treatments or challenge the necessity of certain procedures. This can leave victims stuck with out-of-pocket expenses while trying to recover.
- You’re Not Required to Accept the First Offer: Many people believe they must take whatever is first offered to them. In truth, you can—and often should—negotiate or challenge the insurer’s decision with the help of an attorney who understands the claims process.
