Building The Value in Personal Injury Cases

Hiring a personal injury lawyer ensures you receive the best possible settlement for your specific case. Without legal representation, you risk getting no settlement or a settlement that doesn’t fully cover your losses. An experienced Utah injury attorney from True North Injury Law will:

  • Thoroughly assess your case
  • Educate you
  • Help you identify your damages
  • Gather evidence to help you prove each category of damages
  • Fight to ensure you get a fair settlement

Comprehensive Damage Assessment

True North Injury Law performs a detailed assessment of your damages, covering both economic and non-economic losses to ensure that all aspects are addressed:

  • Medical Expenses: Includes current medical bills, future treatments, rehabilitation costs, and necessary medical equipment.
  • Lost Wages: Accounts for lost income due to your inability to work and any future loss of earning capacity.
  • Pain and Suffering: Factors in non-economic damages like physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
  • Property Damage: Covers the cost of repairs or replacement if your property, like a vehicle, was damaged in the accident.
  • Other Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Includes any additional costs related to your injury, such as travel expenses for medical appointments.

Accurate Valuation of Non-Economic Damages

Quantifying non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering, is often challenging. There is no special formula or math that can accurately tell you how much you should receive for pain and suffering. It all comes down to what a jury would do. As such, True North Injury Law is constantly reviewing jury verdicts and arbitration awards as well as engaging in litigation to stay abreast of what juries and arbitrators are doing.

Negotiating with Insurance Companies

Insurance companies typically aim to minimize payouts by offering low initial settlements. The attorneys at True North Injury Law are skilled negotiators who understand these tactics and work to:

  • Present a strong, evidence-backed case
  • Not let insurers off the hook
  • Push insurers to their top offers

Ensuring Fair Settlements

True North Injury Law reviews all settlement offers to confirm they cover the full extent of your damages. They:

  • Advise against accepting lowball offers
  • Continue negotiations or pursue litigation as needed to secure a settlement that truly reflects your losses

Trial Advocacy

Being prepared to go to trial can provide powerful leverage in settlement negotiations especially when you have a track record of success. However, if settlement negotiations break down, True North Injury Law will advocate for you in court. Their attorneys:

  • Will tell your story
  • Demonstrate the full extent of your damages
  • Lay out the defendant’s liability to the judge and jury
  • Present a compelling case backed up by evidence

Client-Centered Approach

At the end of the day, your case is about you. Our goal is to educate you and work as partners so that you can make the best choices for your case. We do this by:

  • Providing clear explanations of legal options
  • Keeping you updated on case progress
  • Counseling together as each step of the case progresses
  • Answering any questions to reduce stress and empower informed decision-making

Post-Settlement Support

Even after reaching a settlement, True North Injury Law continues to support you so that when you walk away with your check, you can be confident that those funds are yours. We do this by:

  • Confirming medical balances
  • Working with health insurance and medical providers to ensure that bills have been appropriately processed and paid

  • Disbursing settlement funds to ensure bills, subrogation obligations, and liens are appropriately paid
