Truck Accident
Don’t let an 18-wheeler crash compromise your future. Get in touch with a SLC truck crash attorney to get the compensation you need to recover.
Semi-trucks and other large commercial vehicles can cause some incredible damage to other drivers on the road. The size and weight of these vehicles is enough to total even the largest SUV and greatly injure the occupants.
Highway travel is especially unsafe. Whether you’re on Interstate 15, Route 89, or Interstate 80, you won’t go far without seeing an 18-wheeler. If you’ve been injured by a commercial truck anywhere in the Salt Lake City area, you may be able to seek compensation for your injuries if someone else’s negligence played a role.
Contact an attorney from Craig Swapp & Associates. We can review your case to determine how much compensation you’re owed. We’ll help take care of the legal aspects of your case so you can focus on getting better after your truck crash-related injuries.
Compensation for Your Salt Lake City 18-Wheeler Crash
A serious truck accident will often lead to very serious injuries, which are incredibly expensive in a best-case scenario. Not all your losses will be of a medical nature. You can also sustain financial losses because you’re missing wages, you may not ever be able to return to work, and you may be paying in-home care or transportation costs.
The following is a list of damages your lawyer can list in your claim to ensure you’re properly compensated:
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Lost wages and the loss of your future earnings
- Lost or damaged property, including your damaged vehicle
- Mental health treatment
- Medical expenses, including bills, medications, and surgeries

Any vehicle collision can lead to injuries, but semi-truck crashes almost always will. The first step to receiving fair compensation is to determine who was responsible for the crash. Your truck crash lawyer can investigate the incident and help you file a claim to recover the damages you’ve suffered.

Client Reviews
“I was concerned with all the paperwork”
Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.

Truck Accident FAQ
Here’s the short version: We will investigate your truck accident and gather evidence, including police reports, witness statements, and medical documentation related to the incident, to determine fault. We will help file the claim paperwork and negotiate a fair settlement with the insurance companies. If they refuse to pay, we will pursue compensation in court.
If the insurance companies offer a settlement that you believe is fair, then no. If they don’t agree to pay you fairly for your claim, then you might have to go to court if you want fully compensated for your truck accident. Your lawyer will be by your side and to speak on your behalf in the courtroom.
Utah operates under the concept of comparative negligence. The person found mostly responsible for a wreck can be held liable. As long as you are found less than 50 percent responsible for your trucking accident, you can seek compensation.
