Salt Lake City ATV and UTV Accident Attorney

Utah ATV and UTV Attorney

Utah's Best Personal Injury Law Office

All-terrain vehicles are an exciting and adventurous way to enjoy Utah’s many trails and natural surroundings. These vehicles sometimes referred to as “quads,” are enjoyed by teenagers and adults alike. Even when observing proper safety standards, four-wheeling can still be a risky activity, one that, unfortunately, can lead to severe injury and, in the worst cases, death. On average, the U.S. Consumer Safety Product Commission reports around 100,000 cases where people have been injured due to an ATV or UTV accident.

Why you may need an ATV injury attorney?

A straightforward question that you can ask yourself is, “Was someone else responsible for the accident in any way?” If you believe that the answer might be “yes,” we highly recommend requesting an ATV accident case evaluation.

Award-Winning Attorneys

Our expert attorneys are nationally known for their exemplary talent to provide their clients with the legal advice that they deserve; all the while being some of the most decorated lawyers in Utah.

The Importance of Speaking with an Attorney

Recreational accident cases are unique in nature and require an experienced law firm to properly handle. Participants or guests engaged in managed and coordinated activities have a reasonable guarantee that precautions have been taken. It can be difficult for the injured parties to show that there was negligence of another that resulted in their injury. Furthermore, Insurance companies have a reputation for making it difficult to collect fair and just compensation. If you are looking for someone to fight for your rights we highly recommend requesting a case review today. Our attorneys can help you cut through red tape to get your case handled professionally and efficiently.

Common injuries that can occur from ATV accidents

There is an inherent risk with quads, and even when protective gear is worn, the damages can be devastating. Many people can experience injuries such as:

Arm and hand injuries, such as broken bones.

Head and neck injuries that can lead to long-term damage and even paralyzation.

Injuries to the legs and feet, including broken bones or intense bruising.

Accidental death.

As a Salt Lake City ATV injury law firm, we hate to see anyone suffer from an accident. However, there are options to help get your life back together as much as possible. If you or a loved one has been involved in a collision, crash, or rollover, contact our office today to speak with a legal professional.

In general, our office finds that three scenarios can arise where compensation may be due to the victim of negligence.

Negligence of other operators. This can arise when the ATV operator failed to see you or took their ATV on a trail that was explicitly made for hikers and trail-walkers only. This type of accident can result in four-wheelers colliding or someone operating an ATV/UTV hitting you as a pedestrian.

Manufacturer defects and possible product liability. In some instances, it can be shown that the manufacturer or a rental company failed to meet the necessary safety standards for the vehicle. An example of this would be a vehicle design with a center of gravity that is too high, resulting in a rollover case.

Complete disregard for safety. These situations are unfortunate but can arise. Common examples that we see include operating the ATV with more than one person on the vehicle, driving while impaired, by either alcohol, medication, and under the influence in some manner.

Many factors should be discussed with a lawyer to help determine the liable parties. In some situations, legal representation can be achieved on a contingency fee basis. This means that you pay little to nothing unless your case is settled and you receive financial compensation.
