Car Accidents? Talk To Our Experienced Car Accident Team

Dealing with a car accident can be a truly confusing and stressful experience. Not only are you injured and in pain, you probably have quite a few questions as to how your day-to-day life is going to be impacted after the accident. If your accident involved an uninsured motorist or a hit and run driver, you may be wondering what your rights are. The Utah car accident attorneys at Valley Law are here to help answer those questions and explain your rights.

What are some common issues after a car accident?

After a car accident, you may feel physically and emotionally exhausted. You might be dealing with injuries, the stress of filing a claim, and dealing with the insurance company. There are many pitfalls that could cost you time, money and aggravation.

Below are some of the most common issues that can arise after an accident.

Towing costs: If your car was not drivable, make sure to get receipts for towing charges as well as rental car expenses from the time of the accident through your vehicle’s repair or replacement.

Repair estimates: Be sure to get at least two repair estimates for the damage to your vehicle. Sometimes it’s best to find a second opinion on what it will take to fix your car or if it’s even feasible to do so.

Insurance company: Unfortunately, many insurance companies will try to low-ball you on what they believe is fair market value for your vehicle. Make sure you have documentation on what your vehicle is worth before and after the accident. Get multiple quotes for repairs and make sure that you are getting enough money for your car in the settlement. Also make sure that you are getting enough money for rental cars while your vehicle is being repaired or replaced.

It’s not unusual for car accident victims to suffer from both soft tissue injuries and hard tissue injuries, which include fractures and internal injuries. Soft tissue injuries may include: Muscle strain, Spinal cord damage, Nerve damage, Bruises, Chronic pain syndrome, etc.

Soft tissue injuries are often seen as less serious than bone fractures or spinal cord damage, but they can be debilitating and very painful. They can also take a long time to heal. Hard tissue injuries tend to be more serious because they cause permanent damage to bones and internal organs. They can include: Fractures (broken bones) in any part of the body (head, neck, torso, arms or legs) Internal organ damage** ~~~Broken bones can lead to major complications if they aren’t treated quickly and properly. Internal organs can be permanently damaged if they aren’t treated properly

It is surprising how many people don’t realize the importance of contacting a personal injury attorney after being injured in an accident. This is especially important if you have been seriously injured in a car accident. A great deal of time and money could be wasted if you are not aware of your rights and the steps you need to take to protect yourself after an accident.

Personal injury attorneys can help you in many ways, including:

providing step-by-step guidance on the legal processes involved after an accident;

helping you understand how the insurance companies work; and,

putting together a plan that will protect your rights and enhance your chances of receiving compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering.

Getting into a car accident can be one of the most traumatic experiences of your life. If you’ve been injured in an accident and now have medical bills, damaged property, or even worse, you might feel like your life is over. Trying to recover from that injury takes a lot of time, money, and emotional strength – and it’s very possible that insurance companies will fight you every step of the way. That’s why it’s so important to hire an experienced car accident team to help you get through this difficult time.
