There’s a little slice of heaven in southwest Utah known as St. George. Unlike in the colder regions in the northern part of the state, St. George residents and tourists enjoy the much milder climate here for golf and other outdoor sports like hiking in the canyons or exploring the sand dunes.
We are also a cultural hub for the more than 95,000 people who call St. George home and enjoy the many sites in the historic downtown area. Our city is thriving and growing, and we are proud to call it home.
But like anywhere else, St. George residents and visitors occasionally wind up with serious injuries from sporting accidents and car wrecks. Those who wind up hurt may require the services of our St. George personal injury lawyers.
At Parker + McConkie, we understand that justice must be won and always seek fair compensation for our clients.

Utah product liability laws are designed to protect consumers from dangerous products. Defective products can injure, maim, or kill those who purchase and use the products for their intended purposes.
Both retailers and manufacturers may be found liable for these losses and damages. Since these types of claims are strict liability offenses, claimants aren’t required to prove negligence when seeking damages.
All personal injury lawsuits begin with a claim for damages filed by the victims involved or a family member of the deceased. Insurance adjusters have one objective, and that is to settle all claims for the least amount of money possible (and typically for far less than the claim’s true value).
After a car crash or other grievous incident, you will generally receive a larger settlement by retaining experienced St. George personal injury lawyers to handle your claim against the liable parties.
Should your claim not settle, our personal injury lawyers are aggressive litigators who aren’t afraid to battle against opposing counsel in the courtroom. Since we only practice personal injury law.
Not everyone who gets into car accidents has a viable case, and not every car accident is another driver’s fault. To successfully pursue a financial settlement after auto and truck accidents, you must understand the personal injury laws here in Utah.
Negligence has to be proven against the defendant in the case, and the burden of the proof is on the plaintiff and their personal injury lawyers.
After an accident causes injury, the victims have a specific time frame in which to seek monetary remuneration for their injuries and other damages. Here in Utah, the statute of limitations for recovery in a personal injury case is four years, and the countdown begins from the date of the accident.
If you delay action for too long on your case, the window of opportunity to pursue a personal injury case closes. In almost all situations, that ends any recourse the victim has to receive any financial recovery from their claim for damages.
Be wary of insurance claim adjusters who slow-walk cases or deny legitimate claims outright, as this is a common stalling tactic designed to deter claimants from following through with a lawsuit before the statute of limitations runs out.
Whether it is a medical malpractice claim or another type of personal injury, claimants can seek two types of damages from the at-fault party or liable driver(s).
Of the two types of damages, economic damages are the simplest to calculate. Some of the most prevalent economic damages that an experienced attorney will seek include the following:
Any funds spent on your medical care after the accident or incident that left you injured can be recovered in your claim for damages. This includes transportation costs to get you to and from appointments, tolls, parking, and prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) medications you purchased.
These damages are more challenging to quantify. But attorneys who practice injury law know and understand how to apply a dollar value to all of the following non-economic damages for their clients:
At Parker + McConkie, we know that no amount of monetary compensation could ever replace a lost loved one who has perished in an accident or reverse the permanent effects of a crushed spine or a traumatic brain injury (TBI).
