What is the Utah “No-Fault” Law?
When people have been in an accident and start receiving medical treatment, they may feel confused about where to turn. This is because they are told that they will need to submit their initial medical bills to their own auto insurance company.
It is understandable for people to wonder, “Why should I ever bill my own insurance company when I did not cause the accident?”.
In addition to what was already a life-altering event, the additional stress and concern of this situation just add to the equation, but what does the “Utah No-Fault Insurance” Law mean, and how does this apply to you? Luckily, great companies such as Robert J. DeBry & Associates specialize in these types of problems when they do arise!
As a result of Utah’s “No-Fault Insurance” law, your own automobile insurance company will pay your initial medical bills so that you don’t have to worry about it. This idea is based on the premise that the insurance companies for your automobile and the insurance company for the at-fault driver will be better positioned to determine who should be paying the bill.
As a result, the first bill you have to pay when you are injured will be paid for by your insurance company. As the legal process continues, you do not want to find yourself in the middle of a dispute with the other insurance company. Therefore to resolve this issue, the Utah “No-Fault” Law allows you to retain your insurance and have them fight the claim on your behalf.
