Car Accidents in Utah
Utah’s roadways see a high number of crashes every year. The Utah Department of Public Safety reported over 27,000 injury-related crashes in 2022 alone, many happening in areas like Salt Lake City. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, common causes include distracted driving, impaired driving, and failure to yield.
For victims of accidents, financial strain is often a major concern. Here are common financial damages and why having legal representation matters:
- Emergency Care and Ambulance Fees: Initial care and transport alone can cost thousands. These are recoverable damages in a personal injury claim.
- Ongoing Medical Costs: Long-term treatment like physical therapy or surgery may not be fully covered by insurance. Legal help can ensure these expenses are included in settlement negotiations.
- Lost Income: Accident victims often miss work. If your injury affects your ability to earn in the future, those lost wages should also be factored into your claim.
- Vehicle Repairs and Replacement: Auto body work or full vehicle replacement after a crash is expensive. Your attorney can pursue compensation for every cent lost.
- Non-Economic Damages: Pain, suffering, and reduced quality of life are all legitimate claims. An experienced attorney can advocate for compensation beyond simple bills.
