Understanding Personal Injury Claims and Damages
Injuries caused by someone else’s negligence or intentional act of violence essentially define personal injury in Utah. Victims who can show through a “preponderance of evidence” that the act or inaction of another party resulted in harm, they (the victims) may have grounds to seek compensation for the related losses.
Our firm’s personal injury attorneys in Millcreek can handle all legalities associated with your personal injury claim and work toward the most favorable outcome possible. We often resolve claims through settlement negotiations, preventing you from having to go through a trial.
Still, our team of aggressive, effective trial attorneys will not encourage you to settle for less just to avoid trial. We want you to secure the highest possible compensation for a personal injury claim, and we will be prepared to fight in court if that is the most likely path to justice.

Siegfried & Jensen knows the Mount Olympus area. The main travel corridors, Wasatch Boulevard and 3900 South, are not uncommon motor-vehicle crash locations. Accident risk is also high on the canyon road access to Big Cottonwood Canyon, thanks to year-round, heavy recreational traffic.
Motor vehicle crashes are a common type of personal injury claim, but certainly not the only kind we handle. Connect with us as soon as possible, no matter what kind of accident you’ve experienced. We can review your situation and develop a strategy that serves your needs.

We Know How Utah’s Injury Laws Can Affect Your Claim
Utah gives victims the right to hold negligent parties accountable for damages, but only if they meet the fault standard established in Utah Code 78B-5-818. Under this comparative negligence law, you can only pursue compensation if you are 49% or less to blame for the incident.
If you hold a smaller percentage of fault, you can still seek damages, but the amount you collect is reduced by that same percentage. This law is a major reason securing representation from an experienced Mount Olympus personal injury attorney is so critical.
We know the kinds of evidence to gather for a personal injury case. You need evidence to protect yourself from unfair blame and to support your claim of negligence against the other party. Count on us to explore every source of information and put every shred of available evidence to use.
Statute of Limitations
To protect your right to fight for justice in court, you must file your personal injury claim within Utah’s statute of limitations. Per Utah Code 78B-2-307, the deadline for car accidents, other motor vehicle crashes, and premises liability is typically four years. Other accidents come with shorter deadlines.
Partner with our team quickly to avoid missing the deadline. If you think the statute of limitations has passed, don’t give up on justice without first talking to us. Some situations allow for extensions.
