Utah Personal Injury Practice Areas

Car accidents are some of the most common forms of personal injury in Utah and elsewhere. According to the Utah Highway Safety Office, over 60,000 car accidents occurred in 2021, leading to 332 fatalities and more than 26,000 injuries.

Utah’s “no-fault” car accident system can make it tough to file a claim against an at-fault driver’s insurance policy, but we are here to help. Our attorneys are fully prepared to help you establish the injury threshold and seek to hold all irresponsible drivers accountable for the losses they cause.

Motorcycle accidents can involve some serious medical conditions — often fatal — as well as complicated accident scenarios. Insurers and other parties are quick to paint motorcycle operators as responsible, in part or in full, for the accident that led to their injury. In truth, many motorcycle accident cases involve drivers being careless. A study by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) revealed that a jaw-dropping 83% of vehicles involved in an accident with a motorcycle failed to take any measures to avoid a collision.

Valley Law Accident and Injury Lawyers know that, after a motorcycle crash, the victim and their families are likely to have high medical costs and other losses. We represent you to aggressively seek any and all compensation that can be obtained from all possible parties.

Alternative transportation should be safe, but road design flaws and careless drivers present risks that constantly put bicyclists in harm’s way.

Whether you are at a store, an apartment complex, a government building, or a private home, the property owner has a duty to keep you safe on their premises. Any failure to remove hazards — or at least properly warn visitors about them — can constitute a negligent act, making the property owner responsible for the injuries they cause.

Common types of premises liability cases include falls from slippery substances, trips on poorly marked level changes, and incidents involving poorly maintained stairwells, railings, or flooring. Some cases may also involve structural collapse, exposure to toxic substances, electrical shock, or any other number of possible harms.

On the course, at parks, and increasingly around cart-friendly towns like Elk Ridge, golf carts are an increasingly popular way to get around the beehive state. At the same time, golf carts pose extreme risks when careless drivers, defective carts, and dangerous path designs come into the mix. Worse, many golf cart accident victims are very young or very old, leading to more-significant injuries than would be expected. A cart’s lack of protections and safety features for riders also makes these injuries worse than what would occur in a typical car accident — even at low speeds.

Valley Law Accident and Injury Lawyers can help you examine the full circumstances surrounding your golf cart accident and identify all liable parties.

Daycare centers are responsible for our most-precious loved ones, who aren’t old enough to fully look out for their own safety. Unfortunately, daycare centers can engage in neglect, careless safety practices, or sometimes even intentional abuse, causing suffering to some of the most vulnerable members of our community. When your family has been affected by a childcare center accident or abuse, trust our attorneys to fight aggressively to hold them accountable and prove the extent of harm they caused.

Wrongful death cases are the most tragic outcome of an injury accident, often costing families hundreds of thousands in the loss of the loved one’s income on top of steep medical bills and funerary expenses. A wrongful death claim seeks to recover all of these losses, including the financial impacts to the victim prior to their death and both the tangible and intangible losses experienced by the survivors who no longer have their family member around to love and support them.
