Utah Property Damage Lawyers
The only firm that handles your vehicle AND your injuries — together.
Quick Answer
LawyerUp is the only personal injury firm in Utah that simultaneously handles both your injury claim and your property damage claim. While other firms ignore your vehicle, we ensure your car is properly valued through USPAP-certified appraisals — whether it's a diminished value claim, total loss dispute, or rental car recovery.
Why Property Damage Matters in Your Injury Case
When you're in an accident, you have two separate claims: your personal injury claim and your property damage claim. Most law firms only handle the injury side, leaving you to fight the insurance company alone for your vehicle's value. LawyerUp is different. We partner with USPAP-certified vehicle appraisers who use real dealer transaction data — not insurance company algorithms like CCC ONE — to prove your car's true market value.
Diminished Value Claims
Even after a perfect repair, your car loses value because the accident appears on its Carfax report. Studies show 39% of buyers won't purchase a vehicle with accident history at any price. This lost value is called diminished value, and the at-fault driver's insurance company owes you for it. Typical diminished value recoveries range from $3,000 to $8,000 for standard vehicles and $8,000 to $20,000+ for luxury vehicles and Teslas.
Total Loss Disputes
Insurance companies use automated tools like CCC ONE that systematically undervalue totaled vehicles by $3,000 to $10,000. They select comparable vehicles from distant markets, ignore your vehicle's specific condition and options, and pressure you to accept quickly. LawyerUp's appraisers challenge these valuations using the appraisal clause in your insurance policy, presenting real market data that proves your car's true worth. Average recovery: $6,500 above the initial insurance offer.
Rental Car Recovery
If the accident wasn't your fault, the other driver's insurance is required to provide a rental car for every day you're without your vehicle. This is not optional — it's the law. Even if you didn't rent a car, you may be owed 'loss of use' compensation: the daily rental value of a comparable vehicle for every day you were without transportation. LawyerUp's partner network offers same-day rental placement billed directly to the insurance company.

Property Damage Claims FAQs
Diminished value is the loss in your vehicle's market value after an accident, even after perfect repairs. Because the accident appears on your Carfax report, buyers pay less for accident-history vehicles. The at-fault driver's insurance owes you for this loss.
