What Is Personal Injury Law?
Personal injury law refers to a legal claim against someone citing physical or mental harm.
In a typical personal injury case, the injuries sustained will have occurred due to the ignorance, negligence, or carelessness of another person or party.
Victims and their families can pursue compensation for their losses in a personal injury lawsuit. Claims are made to recover both present and future losses – Medical expenses, legal expenses, missed work, property damages, reduced earning capacity, loss of enjoyment of life, and more.
Negligence
In a personal injury lawsuit, negligence identifies who is to blame. Injuries can be attributed to the actions (or inactions) of the party responsible.
“Duty of care” is a term commonly used in personal injury. It boils down to the responsibility to maintain certain standards to avoid injuring another person.
For example – Drivers are expected to obey traffic laws to prevent accidents, just like a building manager would be expected to repair a broken railing in a stairwell… so that no one gets hurt.
So, if someone has “breached their duty of care”, that means that, in light of the circumstances surrounding the injury, the at-fault party had a reasonable expectation to adhere to a certain standard, since they didn’t adhere to it, the injured party suffered.
Do You Have A Case?
If you’ve sustained an injury due to the result of someone else’s carelessness or negligence, you likely have grounds for a personal injury lawsuit.
But there’s something you should know… The procedural rules of the court usually take precedence over the facts and truth. When you’re up against an insurance company, you’ll need to know plenty of legal tricks to “prove up” your case and get what you really deserve. The difference between doing this by yourself and hiring a skilled injury lawyer can be life-changing.

FAQ
Answers for your questions
The mistake of taking on the personal injury claims process (without a lawyer) is one that’s quite common. You need to be thinking about how this injury affects you right now AND for the rest of your life. What happens if you settle for an amount that’s less than what you need or what if you don’t settle your case at all? A potentially life-changing verdict. Personal injury lawyers only get paid when they win your case. They are on YOUR side. You should always involve a lawyer in a personal injury claim.
That’s an easy one. Contact us! Our Salt Lake City personal injury lawyers will review your claim for FREE. If you believe the person/party responsible for your injuries was negligent or careless, then you’re in the right place.
In Utah, pain and suffering claims are bucketed into a larger category called “non-economic damages.” To determine the extent of noneconomic damages, jurors consider the following:
- The type of injury sustained and the severity
- How the injury affects daily life
- Limitations on quality of life
- How long the injury/conditions can last for
If you’ve been involved in any type of auto accident, here’s what you should do:
- Contact local authorities – report the accident, get emergency assistance if needed.
- Gather evidence – If injuries permit, take pictures, get witness info, document everything.
- Seek Medical Attention – Even if you’re injuries aren’t severe, have them documented.
- Contact a personal injury lawyer – Do this BEFORE speaking with the insurance company. They can help you get started with your claim and guide you.
