Common Injuries in Personal Injury Cases

Personal injuries come in varying degrees, from minor to severe, with some common injuries including:

Whiplash and other soft tissue injuries

This is a common injury from motor vehicle accidents, especially rear-end collisions. It involves damage to the neck's muscles, ligaments, and tendons and can cause pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion. Other soft tissue injuries can include sprains, strains, and contusions.

Broken bones

Fractures can happen in different scenarios, such as slip and fall incidents, car collisions, and workplace accidents. Broken bones can require surgery, immobilization, and extensive rehabilitation, depending significantly on the severity and location of the break.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)

TBIs can result from direct blows to the head, sudden jolts, or penetration injuries. These injuries range from minor concussions to significant brain damage, potentially leading to cognitive impairments, emotional changes, and long-term disability.

Spinal cord injuries

Trauma to the spinal cord can result from various accidents, including car crashes, falls, and sports injuries. Partial or complete paralysis, loss of sensation, and chronic pain are potential consequences of spinal cord injuries, which can vary depending on their location and severity.

Burns

Burn injuries can occur due to fires, explosions, chemical exposure, or contact with hot surfaces. Burns can differ from minor first-degree burns to life-threatening third-degree burns, which can cause severe pain, disfigurement, and permanent scarring.

Disfigurement

Injuries that lead to permanent scarring or disfigurement can profoundly impact a person's self-esteem and overall quality of life. Examples of disfigurement include severe burns, facial injuries, or amputations.

Emotional trauma

Accidents and injuries can cause significant emotional distress, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). These emotional injuries may require long-term therapy and can affect a person's ability to work, maintain relationships, and enjoy daily activities.
These injuries can significantly affect your life in the long run, affecting your ability to work, enjoy daily activities, and maintain relationships. It's imperative to seek the best legal representation to ensure you receive the compensation necessary to aid in your recovery.

An experienced personal injury attorney can help you navigate the legal process, collect evidence to establish your claim and negotiate with the insurance company to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.

CAR
ACCIDENTS

This includes investigating the accident, determining fault, and gathering evidence to support your claim.

MOTORCYCLE
ACCIDENTS
Motorcycle accidents can result in severe injuries due to the lack of protection for riders. These injuries can have a lasting impact on your life, requiring extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation.

DOG BITE
INJURIES
Dog bites can lead to severe injuries, infection, and emotional trauma. In Utah, dog owners can be held strictly accountable for injuries caused by their pets, regardless of the dog's history of aggression.

SEMI-TRUCK
ACCIDENTS
The immense size and weight of commercial trucks frequently lead to severe injuries in the event of an accident. Our lawyers possess expertise in handling intricate truck accident cases, including dealing with federal regulations governing the trucking industry and multiple liable parties such as truck drivers, trucking companies, and third-party contractors.
PEDESTRIAN
ACCIDENTS
Pedestrian accidents can lead to devastating injuries, as pedestrians have little protection against the impact of a vehicle. These accidents can occur due to driver negligence, poor road conditions, or inadequate signage and crosswalks.

Client Testimonials
I’ve never needed to hire an injury lawyer until I was injured on a Royal Caribbean Cruise. Resh Jefferies was recommended to me. Boy am I glad I listened. Resh worked very hard and seemed very concerned. I wasn’t sure I even had a case. After 3 months of negotiations, I ended up with more than I would have imagined. I would definitely recommend Reshlaw to anyone needing a lawyer that genuinely cares. Thank you
-Julie B.
I have worked with Resh Jefferies for many years as both a coworker and a personal injury client - he is one of the most honest, hardworking and intelligent people I have ever met and an incredible injury attorney to boot! I have referred many friends and family to Resh and his team and they have always had 5 ***** treatment. No hesitation with recommending ReshLaw! -
Suzanne
Resh and his amazing paralegals handled my son's case. He was hit on the freeway and pushed into the median. He was treated at the emergency room and by another doctor for his neck and back. We could not be happier with the expertise and the results.

Personal Injury Statute of Limitations in Utah

In Utah, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally four years from the date of the injury. You have four years to file a lawsuit against the responsible party or parties. There are some exceptions to this and communicating with a personal injury attorney as soon as possible is the best course of action. Failing to file within the applicable statute of limitations may result in losing your right to file a compensation claim.

It's critical to consult with an experienced Utah personal injury attorney as quickly as possible to protect your rights and ensure that your case is filed promptly. Our team has extensive experience in various practice areas, and we can work with you to discuss all of your legal options to put your case in the best position to be successful.

Types of Compensation in Personal Injury Cases

Depending on the specifics of your case, you may be eligible to receive various types of compensation. You need to work with an attorney who understands how to maximize the value of your case and work with you to obtain the compensation that you are entitled to. Some common types of compensation in personal injury cases include:
Emotional distress refers to the psychological impact of your injury, such as anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This type of compensation is intended to address the intangible pain and suffering you have experienced as a result of your injury.

If you have suffered significant emotional distress from the accident, save the records from your visits to a mental health professional. We can use them to support your case.
If your injury has caused you to miss work or has impacted your ability to earn an income, you may be eligible to receive compensation for lost wages. This can include both past and future lost income. Do not forget to bring any records of pay stubs or employment contracts that we can use to support the income that we pursue on your behalf.
Loss of consortium refers to your injury's negative impact on your relationship with your spouse or partner. This type of compensation is intended to address the loss of companionship, affection, and intimacy that may result from a serious injury. While putting a price tag on this might be difficult, it is no less important than the other types of damages we may pursue as your legal representatives.
Compensation for medical bills includes the costs of any medical treatment you have received due to your injury. This can encompass doctor's visits, hospital stays, surgeries, physical therapy, medication, and other necessary medical expenses. We may also be able to pursue compensation for future medical expenses if you believe you will have to continue seeing a doctor once the case is over.
Every case is different, and we will work with you to help you figure out exactly how much your case is worth. Rely on a personal injury lawyer from our team to represent you.
