Auto Accidents
When you have an auto accident, it changes your life forever. Whether the accident involves serious injury, medical bills or pain, it changes you. Unfortunately, negligent drivers and insurance companies are rarely concerned with your recovery. That is why you need a personal injury attorney on your side. More importantly, you need a lawyer who will give your case personal attention and effort.
At Broadbent Law, that is what we do. We will gather the evidence, interview the witnesses, and take on the insurance companies to make sure you are made as whole as possible and that you receive the medical attention, lost wages, and recovery you are entitled to.
Trucking Accidents
Large trucks are involved in accidents all of the time. Because of their size and weight, even minor accidents with semi-trucks can cause catastrophic injuries and death. Because of the dangers associated with large trucks, truck drivers, and the companies that hire them, are regulated by very specific rules and regulations. These rules are in place to protect other drivers and pedestrians. Unfortunately, some drivers and companies ignore these rules, or try to bend them, to increase their profits. Sometimes, people are also injured by tired drivers, intoxicated drivers, or inattentive semi-truck drivers.
Because of the rules that govern the trucking industry, if you’ve been injured by a semi-truck, it is critical that you have an lawyer familiar with trucking standards assist you. At Broadbent Law, we know how trucking businesses, and their insurance companies, defend these types of claims and how to make sure you are treated fairly. If you’ve been injured by a semi-truck, contact us so we can help protect your future.
Boating Accidents
Boats and personal watercraft are popular in Utah and Arizona. Spending a day on the lake is what summers are made for. Unfortunately, boats and personal watercraft can also be deadly. If they are not properly maintained or operated, or are driven while intoxicated or distracted, they can cause serious injuries and death.
At Broadbent Law, we encourage all boaters and watercraft operators to be safe and sober. However, if you are injured by a boater or watercraft operator’s negligence, you have a right to be made whole. Boating and water accidents sometimes require expert knowledge to figure out the negligent party and to make sure that you are treated fairly. At Broadbent Law, we have that knowledge and can gather the evidence to make sure that you are protected. If you are injured in a water accident, give us a call and let us help put your life back together.
Motorcycle Accidents
Fatal motorcycle crashes are five times more likely than fatal car crashes. On a per-mile basis, motorcyclists are at a significantly greater risk than car travelers. This increase in risk is not usually caused by motorcyclists themselves. While Broadbent Law encourages all motorcyclists to travel safely, wear appropriate safety gear, and be aware of their surroundings, many accidents are caused by car drivers simply “failing to see” motorcyclists or other negligent actions.
When a motorcycle accident occurs, the injuries can be devastating. These can include brain injuries, internal injuries, broken bones or joints, skin and muscle injuries, road rash, or permanent paralysis.
If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, it is important that you receive immediate medical attention. In addition, it is important that you contact Broadbent Law so we can make sure you are able to put your life back together.
Bicycle Accidents
Bicyclists have a right to use the road. Despite this right, many motorists don’t see bicycle riders, or cause an accident when they pull out in front of a bike, attempt to pass a cyclist, or are simply inattentive when a bicycle is around.
No matter the reason, bicycle riders have a right to recover damages for their injuries. While most insurance companies are unsympathetic to bicycle riders, and may even try to minimize your claims because they happened on a bike, at Broadbent Law, we are committed, as bike riders, to making sure that bike riders are allowed to ride in safety and are compensated for their injuries when injured.
If you have been injured while on your bike, we will work to protect your rights. We will hire the necessary experts, and collect the evidence, to protect and prosecute your claim. Let us help put you back on the road.
