The likelihood of suffering a brain injury in an accident with an 18-wheeler or other large truck is significant. A traumatic brain injury (TBI) or concussion can lead to physical, mental, and emotional difficulties. After your crash, it is important to keep an eye out for unusual symptoms and to seek compensation for the impact they have on your life.

After visiting your doctor, the next step is to call an attorney to discuss your legal rights. When you call Craig Swapp & Associates, an experienced Salt Lake City truck accident brain injury lawyer will speak with you about your accident, injuries, and the compensation you may be entitled to.

Steps Taken by a Salt Lake City Truck Accident Brain Injury Lawyer

When you visit our office for your free case evaluation, we will discuss the details of your accident and any injuries you have suffered. After asking you a series of questions, we can begin to gather the evidence necessary to build your case:

Our objective is to build a strong case that fully demonstrates the other party’s negligence, along with the full impact your injury has had on your health and your life. We will gather all the information necessary to do so.

Concussions Are Not Always Obvious

Since concussions and brain injuries often go undiagnosed, it is critical that you report any strange symptoms to your doctor.

A brain injury can impact your physical abilities and health just as much as your mental faculties and emotional stability. If your friends or family remark that you seem different after your truck accident, you should listen to them and visit your doctor.

Doing so quickly is important because you only have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit. The statute of limitations provides four years for personal injury claims in Utah, and if you exceed this timeframe, your case could be thrown out without being heard.

Receiving Compensation for Your Injuries

If your TBI has resulted in a decrease in your physical or mental abilities, you are entitled to compensation. The impact on your physical body could be easier to document and quantify. However, emotional and mental injuries can have an equally significant impact but often require the help of a skilled attorney and medical testimony to prove.

You could be entitled to compensation for any expenses resulting from your tractor-trailer accident:

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.
