Understanding Car Insurance Laws For Utah

Each state has its own rules regarding car insurance and personal injury claim. Utah, for instance, is considered a no-fault car insurance state. Thus, in a car accident that caused minor injuries or minimal car damage, you would call your own car insurance first to get compensation for things like medical bills or property damage. So, is there any point at which you can file a claim with the other driver’s car insurance? A car accident lawyer in Salt Lake City, UT knows that if your claim meets certain standards, there is a point when you would want to file a claim with the other party’s car insurance. Evidence shows that both drivers are at fault. Can I still get compensation? In circumstances where insurance (or a court) decides that both drivers are partially responsible for the accident, you are still able to recover partial damages for your injuries. This is known as modified comparative negligence. This means two things:

The amount you are awarded will be reduced by the amount you are responsible for the accident.
If you are responsible for 50% or more of the accident, you will not be able to recover damages.

After calling a number of "criminal defense" attorneys I was frustrated and scared. Every attorney I had spoken to seemed callous and unsympathetic towards my situation. Then I called Rob. After a brief phone conversation I knew this man had decades of experience. He was calm and direct. He let me know what to expect. I felt confident in that he could help me, and help me, he did. What made me feel the most confident was he knew the system, he knew the law, he knew members of the court, the judges and the FBI investigators. He persuaded the judge to ZERO jail time and I was able to go home to my family. It's been a few months and I just had a follow up meeting with one of the FBI investigators. When the meeting was over the FBI investigator turned to leave and said to me "By the way, your attorney kicked the governments butt in court. He was very persuasive with the judge that day. Had we been in Los Angeles (where this agent worked before) you would have easily done time." The agent left right after and I immediately called Rob and told him of all the compliments I could have given him for keeping me out of prison, all the information and peace of mind he provided throughout the ordeal. The best one came from the investigator trying to prosecute me. I wanted to post a review about him because if you are facing trouble that requires an attorney... DON'T make a decision without speaking to Rob first, it may very well be the reason you get to spend time with your family and not in prison.

Rob and Gus handled my case w/ City of South Jordan and gave me outstanding results. I got 4 charges rapped up in 24 hours, 1 of which was a DUI. He got the DUI dropped to reckless driving and the 3 misdemeanor's dropped. He came to visit me at jail. The judge was smiling and told me specifically that I got a great deal. These guys know there stuff and would trust them with any type of case. I'm so lucky I found these 2 fine gentlemen. They pulled out all the stops and came to a quick resolution. Rob and Gus have made a huge impact in my life, I got 2 lawyers for the price of 1! They have very high ethics and standards and got me great results. When it was all said and done the City owed me money from my bail and Gus got my fines reduced! Thank you very much!
