Frequently Asked Questions
Should I call a lawyer after a car accident in Salt Lake City?
Yes. Early legal guidance helps protect your rights, preserve evidence, and prevent insurance companies from undervaluing your claim.
How long do car accident cases take in Utah?
Some claims resolve in months. Others take longer depending on injury severity, fault disputes, and whether litigation is required.
What if the insurance company says I was partially at fault?
Utah law allows recovery as long as you are less than 50% at fault. We challenge unfair fault determinations with evidence.
How much is a car accident case worth?
Case value depends on medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and available insurance coverage.
Do I have to go to court?
Most cases settle without trial, but we prepare every claim as if court will be necessary to maximize leverage.
How We Prove Fault in Utah Car Accident Claims
Fault determination is critical in Utah car accident cases. We establish liability using police reports, witness testimony, crash reconstruction, and vehicle data.
Utah follows a modified comparative fault system under Utah’s comparative fault law, meaning compensation may be reduced if you are partially responsible for the crash.
Insurance companies often dispute fault to limit payouts. We counter those tactics with evidence-driven settlement negotiations and litigation preparation when necessary.
What Compensation Is Available After a Car Accident
- Medical bills and future medical care
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
Insurance coverage issues, including personal injury protection (PIP) benefits and underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) claims regulated by the Utah Insurance Department, can significantly affect recovery.
In cases involving permanent impairment or complex injuries, including serious brain injury cases or catastrophic injury claims, we ensure all damages are fully evaluated before settlement.

The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!"
