Why You Need an Attorney for Your Personal Injury Case in Utah

When you understand the basics of building a personal injury case, you can ensure that your rights are protected. You can also ensure your attorney has everything they need to protect your interests. While there are types of legal cases you can DIY, it’s quite difficult to handle a personal injury claim on your own. A successful personal injury case must meet several criteria to move forward and end with a positive outcome for the injured party seeking damages. An attorney can ensure you have the information needed to support your interests in court.

The key elements of a personal injury case are as follows:

  • Establishing Negligence: Negligence is the legal concept that individuals have a duty to act in accordance with certain standards for the protection of others. For example, a driver has a duty to operate their vehicle cautiously and responsibly.
  • Proving Causation: In order for an injured party to hold another responsible for their accident, they must be able to demonstrate that someone’s negligent action caused them harm. This means establishing the link between the defendant’s actions and your injury or loss.
  • Valuing Damages: The amount of money received from pursuing a claim will depend on factors such as medical expenses, lost wages due to missed work, pain and suffering endured by the victim, permanent disfigurement or disability resulting from injuries, property damage repair costs, and more.
  • Representation: During such cases, victims need to have legal representation so that their rights are protected throughout the process. An experienced attorney can help build strong evidence against negligent parties while securing fair compensation through negotiation or litigation if necessary.

No one should have to face the burden of trying to build a personal injury case alone. With the help of an experienced legal representative, you can ensure that your rights are protected and any compensation awarded is fair and just. If you or someone close to you has been injured due to another’s negligence, don’t hesitate to contact Veritas Injury Lawyers. We can get started building a strong personal injury case on your behalf immediately!

Stay In The Know

This depends: Punitive damages are taxable as “other means of income.” Interest income comes from judgment interest. Compensation for economic and noneconomic damages is not taxed by the IRS. The settlement or verdict agreement will be clearly stated so the IRS will impose you fairly.

Legal auto insurance coverage is: $25,000 per injured victim $15,000 minimum in property damage $50,000 per accident, no matter how many victims have been affected Since Colorado is a “fault” state, this means you can file a claim against the defendant driver’s insurance carrier. However, if the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, there are steps you can take to get around that.

Yes. However, you may not win the maximum possible settlement amount. Under Colorado’s fault principles, your damages will be decreased in proportion to your fault. So, if you were 30% at fault, then your damages would be reduced by that amount in the claims. Keep in mind that the court determines fault.

In most cases, you have around three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. The deadline can be prolonged if you discovered the injury later. If you are planning to sue a government establishment, you may be required to file a claim within a few months after the accident.
