Get the Compensation You Deserve After a Car Accident
A car accident can change your life in an instant, and the insurance company is already building its case against you.
Whether you were rear-ended at a stoplight, hit by a distracted driver, or injured by someone who never should have been on the road, you deserve more than a lowball settlement offer. Our car accident attorneys know how Utah insurance companies operate, and we build the case they don’t want to see: one backed by evidence, medical documentation, and a team that won’t back down.
Why Hire a Car Accident Attorney?
After a crash, you’re dealing with pain, medical appointments, missed work, and a phone that won’t stop ringing with calls from insurance adjusters. Utah is a no-fault state, which means your own policy’s personal injury protection (PIP) pays your initial medical bills, but rarely the real cost of a serious injury. How Utah’s no-fault system works.
An experienced attorney reviews every angle of your claim, gathers the evidence that proves fault, negotiates with insurers who are trained to minimize payouts, and makes sure you’re compensated for the medical care, lost income, and pain and suffering you’re owed under Utah law.

How Much Does a Car Accident Attorney Cost?
We offer a complimentary initial consultation to review your accident and outline your options. If we take your case, there are no attorney fees unless we win. We work on contingency, which means we only get paid when we win.
What Type of Car Accident Injury Cases Do We Take?
No two crashes are the same, and neither are the claims that come from them. Explore the situations we handle most often below to see how we can help protect your rights and your recovery.
Rear-End Collisions
One of the most common and most disputed types of car accident claims in Utah.
Distracted Driving Accidents
Texting, phone calls, and other distractions cause a significant share of Utah crashes.
Drunk Driving Accident Victims
If a drunk driver hurt you, you may have both a civil claim and an interest in the criminal case against them.
Uninsured / Underinsured Motorist Claims
When the at-fault driver doesn’t have enough coverage, or any at all, your own policy may still owe you compensation.
Rideshare Accidents (Uber & Lyft)
Crashes involving rideshare drivers raise unique insurance and liability questions.
Whiplash & Soft Tissue Injuries
These injuries are real, common, and frequently undervalued by insurance adjusters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have a case after my car accident?
If another driver’s negligence (speeding, distraction, failure to yield, driving under the influence) caused your crash, you likely have a claim. An attorney can review the details of what happened and help you understand your options at no cost.
What if I am partly at fault for the accident?
Utah follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can still recover damages as long as you were less than fifty percent at fault. This is exactly why insurance companies fight so hard to shift blame onto you.
What if the other driver is uninsured or underinsured?
If the at-fault driver has no insurance, or not enough to cover your losses, your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage may still owe you compensation. These claims work differently than a standard liability claim because you’re making a claim against your own policy, and your insurer has an incentive to minimize what it pays.
How is fault determined in a Utah car accident?
Fault is typically established through the police report, traffic citations, witness statements, and physical evidence at the scene, along with dashcam or nearby surveillance footage when it’s available. An attorney can gather and preserve this evidence quickly, before it disappears or an insurer disputes it.
What determines the value of my car accident settlement?
Settlement value depends on factors specific to your crash: the cost of vehicle repairs or replacement, medical treatment and future care needs, lost income, and the severity and permanence of your injuries. The at-fault driver’s policy limits also play a role, which is one reason uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage matters.
What should I do right after a car accident?
Get medical attention, call the police, document the scene if you’re able, exchange information with the other driver, and avoid discussing fault with insurance adjusters until you’ve talked to an attorney.
