Salt Lake City Personal Injury Lawyer

Sustaining an injury in an accident can be painful, stressful, inconvenient, and expensive. When your injuries are severe, an accident’s impact can be life-changing. You deserve appropriate compensation when another party’s carelessness or recklessness caused you to experience losses. A Salt Lake City personal injury lawyer can help prove your case and ensure the parties responsible for your accident are held accountable.

The seasoned attorneys at Phillips Law Group have a record of successfully representing injured people for over thirty years and have the knowledge and experience to help you.

Types of Cases We Handle

Injuries can occur anywhere, at any time. A person, company, organization, or government agency might be financially liable for an injury when their conduct or failure to act contributed to the accident. When there is evidence that a party did not act with reasonable care to prevent harm to others, a person injured by that lack of care has a claim against the offending party based on negligence.

The attorneys at Phillips Law Group have expertise in a wide range of negligence claims. They represent people who sustained injuries due to:

• Defective products
• Inadequate security
• Unsafe medications
• Motor vehicle crashes
• Domestic animal attacks
• Swimming pool and sports accidents
• Accidents at daycare, school, or camp
• Falls in retail establishments and other property open to the public

This is a partial list of the most common types of cases the firm handles.

The proof needed to establish liability varies depending on the circumstances of the accident. A skilled legal professional can investigate the situation in Salt Lake City that led to an injury, identify all the potentially responsible parties, and assert claims against them based on the available evidence.

Damages Should Cover All Losses

The compensation an injured person receives after an accident is referred to as damages. Damages reimburse all the losses the person experienced due to their injury. They include out-of-pocket expenses, diminished income, and future losses the person will experience due to a need for ongoing medical treatment or reduced future earning capacity.

Injured people are also entitled to compensation for their pain and suffering. These payments acknowledge the injured person’s inconvenience, humiliation, physical pain, emotional trauma, disability, disfigurement, and other non-economic impacts of the injury. The law places caps on non-economic damages in some cases. An attorney in Salt Lake City can explain whether a cap applies in a specific injury case.

Insurance companies for responsible parties always try to resolve a claim with the smallest payment possible, regardless of fault or fairness. Working with an experienced legal professional ensures that the responsible parties pay a fair amount to close a claim. When the insurance company does not make an adequate offer or negotiate in good faith, a skilled attorney at Phillips Law Group can take the matter to court and allow a jury to determine appropriate compensation.

Prompt Action Preserves All Claims

Utah allows injured people four years from the accident date to file a lawsuit. However, waiting that long to get legal advice is unwise. An injured person enhances their ability to collect reasonable compensation when they act quickly.

I felt they were more my friends than my personal injury lawyer and that isn't something you're taught it's something you have inside. If I ever needed a lawyer again Phillips Law Group Injury Lawyers would be my only choice. I can't recommend them enough. They are professional on every level and compassionate throughout. Thank you for everything.

When in pain because of an accident all you want to do is focus on getting better and that is what did thanks to this firm. My family and I were set up with a Dr and Chiro right away. The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group. I decided to give them a call about my accident, and they were very respectful and took in my case immediately. They assigned me Tim LeDuc to represent me. From the beginning, he was very responsive and made sure to give me the proper care I deserved from this accident. Him and his team fought tooth and nail to give me the best settlement I deserved. I am so thankful, and I highly recommend Phillips Law Group to represent anyone who has been in any accident and...

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...

As time passes, valuable physical evidence could erode or disappear. Witnesses’ memories may fade, and the parties responsible for the incident might die, go out of business, go bankrupt, or leave the jurisdiction. Having an attorney in Salt Lake City investigate an accident soon after it occurs prevents many of these problems and yields stronger evidence in most injury cases.

When a unit of government might have liability in an accident, prompt action is essential. Utah Code §63-G7-402 requires an injured person to file a notice of claim with the responsible agency within one year of the incident. Failing to file the notice in a timely manner could defeat a lawsuit, regardless of its merit.
