Understanding Damages in a Personal Injury Claim

Personal injury claims may seek compensation for losses caused by an accident or injury. The damages involved depend on the circumstances of each individual case.

Economic Damages

These may include medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and other financial losses connected to the injury.

Non-Economic Damages

These may include pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life, depending on the facts and applicable law.

Deadlines and Comparative Fault Matter

Utah Personal Injury Claims

Statute of Limitations

Utah has different filing deadlines depending on the type of claim. Utah's general statute provides a four-year period for actions covered by Utah Code § 78B-2-307, but exceptions and different deadlines can apply to particular claims.

Because the applicable deadline can depend on the facts and type of claim, it is important to discuss your situation with a qualified attorney as soon as possible.


Comparative Negligence

Being partly at fault does not automatically mean that a person cannot recover under Utah's comparative negligence statute. The law provides rules for allocating fault among the people involved and for determining the amount for which defendants may be liable.

The effect of comparative fault depends on the facts and the applicable law in the case.

Your health should be the first priority. Seek appropriate medical attention and follow medical advice. Preserve relevant information about the accident and speak with a personal injury attorney about your situation if you are considering a claim.
Utah has different filing deadlines depending on the type of claim. The general period under Utah Code § 78B-2-307 is four years for actions covered by that provision, but exceptions and shorter deadlines can apply. Because the deadline depends on the claim, it is important to seek legal advice promptly.
Potentially. Utah law addresses comparative negligence and allocation of fault. A person's own fault does not automatically bar recovery, but fault can affect the amount recoverable. The application of the rule depends on the facts of the individual case.
