Millions & Millions Won Discipline. Preparation. Results.
BLACK BELT DISCIPLINE. RELENTLESS ADVOCACY.
Whether in the dojo or the courtroom, success comes from relentless preparation, unwavering focus, and the willingness to outwork the opposition.
Experience built through decades of client advocacy.
Helping clients rebuild after serious accidents.
After a serious accident you become a file. Medical bills arrive before the first adjuster calls. Somebody asks you for a recorded statement. Nobody explains which of the rules working against you actually decide anything.
When you hire William Andrews, you work directly with a personal injury attorney in Salt Lake City who handles the file himself. You are not passed between departments or left guessing who is reading your medical records.
He represents injured people and families across Utah in injury and wrongful death claims, from car and motorcycle crashes to commercial trucking collisions, bicycle and pedestrian injuries, unsafe property claims, and catastrophic injury. He also wrote 8 Wrong Turns That Will Wreck Your Utah Car Accident Case and How to Prevent Them, and all 126 pages are free to read.
Utah law settles a great deal before anyone argues about fault. Whether your injuries clear the threshold in Utah Code 31A-22-309. Whether your share of the blame has reached the point where recovery ends. Which policy pays first and what happens when it runs out. Those answers move the value of a claim more than any argument does.

Hiring a lawyer after a crash asks you to take a lot on faith. You cannot watch the work happen, and most firm advertising says the same things in the same order. What follows is what the process actually looks like here, so you can hold it against whoever else you are considering.
What Working With a Salt Lake City Injury Attorney Should Look Like
Hiring a lawyer after a crash asks you to take a lot on faith. You cannot watch the work happen, and most firm advertising says the same things in the same order. What follows is what the process actually looks like here, so you can hold it against whoever else you are considering.
Three things separate a claim that resolves well from one that stalls. Who reads your file. How much gets preserved before it disappears. Whether anyone understood what the injury cost you beyond the bills. Each is a choice made in the first weeks, and each shows up in the final number.
Most injury firms route a new client to an intake coordinator, then a case manager, then a paralegal who assembles records. The attorney appears near the end, if the case does not settle. William Andrews works the other way around. He takes the first call, reads the crash report and the medical records himself, and stays on the file until it resolves.
That matters at specific moments. When an adjuster offers a number three weeks after a crash, somebody has to know whether your treatment has finished and whether a permanent impairment is likely. A case manager working from a checklist cannot answer that. Neither can a client who has never watched one of these claims play out.
Carriers pay according to risk. A claim that arrives as a stack of bills and a demand letter carries very little of it. A claim that arrives with the crash report, the contributing circumstance codes, a treating physician on causation, and a coverage analysis naming every policy in play carries a great deal more.
The work that creates that gap happens early. Vehicle data gets overwritten. Businesses recycle security footage within days. Witnesses move and stop answering. Preserving that material in the first weeks costs almost nothing and cannot be recreated afterward, which is why it comes first rather than waiting to see what the carrier disputes.
A fractured wrist means one thing to an accountant and something else entirely to a carpenter. Utah lets you recover economic losses you can document and non-economic losses for what the injury took from your life, and the second category depends completely on the life it interrupted.
So the first conversation covers work, family, and what you can no longer do, not only the injury list. A file built from medical records alone leaves out the part that explains the number.
Disciplined advocacy. Proven results. Personal service.
Types of Accidents Our Personal Injury Attorney in Salt Lake City Handles
No two crashes produce the same claim. A rear-end collision on I-15 and a commercial truck crash on I-80 involve different evidence, different insurers, and in the second case a set of federal regulations that has no equivalent in an ordinary car wreck. What they share is a group of Utah statutes that decide a great deal before fault is ever argued.
William Andrews handles each of the case types below himself. Every link opens a full explanation of how that claim works in Utah, including the deadlines and the coverage rules specific to it.
Utah pays the first $3,000 of medical bills through your own personal injury protection coverage no matter who caused the crash. Damages for pain and suffering only open up once your injuries clear the threshold in Utah Code 31A-22-309, and a single bone fracture satisfies it on its own regardless of the bill total. A Salt Lake City car accident attorney can tell you which side of that line you are on.
A commercial trucking claim reaches well past the driver. Responsibility can extend to the motor carrier, a maintenance contractor, the company that loaded the cargo, or a broker, and federal hours of service and inspection records frequently decide the case. Those records survive only if somebody demands them quickly, which is the first task in a Salt Lake City truck accident claim.
Motorcycles are not required to carry personal injury protection in Utah and are not covered by it, so no first party medical coverage is waiting after the crash. Utah Code 41-6a-1505 also keeps helmet use out of civil litigation entirely, which removes an argument insurers lean on in other states. See how a motorcycle accident claim differs from a car crash.
Uber and Lyft carry layered coverage that shifts depending on whether the app was off, switched on and waiting, or carrying a passenger. The same collision can be worth very different amounts depending on which layer was live at that moment. Establishing driver status comes before everything else in a rideshare accident claim.
Utah Code 41-6a-706.5 requires drivers to leave cyclists at least three feet when passing, and a violation causing bodily injury is a class C misdemeanor. That statute gives a bicycle accident claim a negligence anchor that does not rest on an officer forming an opinion at the roadside.
A pedestrian absorbs the entire force of the impact, so the injuries are rarely proportionate to the speed involved. Fault often turns on crosswalk position or signal timing, which makes scene evidence and camera footage decisive in a pedestrian accident claim in a way it is not in a two vehicle crash.
A property claim turns on what the owner knew and when. The question is seldom whether a hazard existed and almost always whether there was time to find it and fix it. Utah Code 18-1-1 separately makes anyone who owns or keeps a dog strictly liable for a bite, although comparative fault still applies. See how premises liability claims get built.
Traumatic brain injury, spinal cord damage, and amputation create costs that run for decades. Valuing one requires a life care plan rather than a total of the bills so far, because the largest expense has usually not been incurred yet. Building that projection is the central work of a catastrophic injury claim.
Utah gives families two years to file a wrongful death claim, half the period that applies to an ordinary injury. The Utah Constitution separately states that damages for injuries resulting in death may not be subject to any statutory limitation. Read how a wrongful death claim after a fatal crash works.

As an experienced personal injury attorney in Salt Lake City, William Andrews proudly represents injury victims throughout Utah and is prepared to help clients pursue compensation wherever their accident occurred. From southern Utah communities to rapidly growing cities along the Wasatch Front, his goal remains the same: helping injury victims protect their rights and move forward after serious accidents.
St. George continues to experience significant growth as both a residential community and tourism destination. With increased traffic on Interstate 15 and expanding development throughout the region, serious motor vehicle accidents unfortunately remain a concern for local residents and visitors alike.
As one of Utah's largest and fastest-growing cities, Provo experiences substantial traffic throughout its residential neighborhoods, business districts, and major transportation corridors. Accidents involving passenger vehicles, rideshare drivers, commercial trucks, and pedestrians can create significant challenges for victims and their families.
Ogden's location along major transportation routes creates a steady flow of commuter and commercial traffic throughout the area. Serious collisions involving passenger vehicles, motorcycles, and commercial trucks can leave victims facing long-term consequences and financial uncertainty.
Cedar City serves as an important hub for southern Utah residents, travelers, and visitors exploring the region's outdoor attractions. Unfortunately, increased roadway traffic can also contribute to serious accidents involving local residents and out-of-town drivers.
Moab attracts visitors from across the country who come to experience its unique landscapes, outdoor recreation opportunities, and scenic roadways. With tourism comes increased traffic, unfamiliar drivers, and a greater risk of motor vehicle collisions.
Logan is home to families, students, professionals, and commuters who rely on busy roadways throughout Cache Valley. Accidents involving distracted drivers, impaired motorists, and commercial vehicles can result in serious injuries that affect every aspect of a person's life.
Park City welcomes millions of visitors each year, creating unique traffic conditions throughout the community. Seasonal tourism, rideshare activity, shuttle transportation, and increased roadway congestion can all contribute to accidents involving residents and visitors alike.
American Fork's continued growth has increased traffic volume throughout the city and surrounding communities. As more people commute through the area, the risk of serious collisions involving passenger vehicles, motorcycles, commercial trucks, and pedestrians remains significant.
Orem's busy streets, commercial corridors, and growing population create conditions where serious accidents can occur unexpectedly. Injury victims are often left dealing with medical treatment, lost income, and uncertainty regarding the future.
No Fee Unless We Win
The financial uncertainty that follows a serious accident often prevents people from seeking legal guidance when they need it most. Medical expenses can begin accumulating almost immediately. Time away from work may reduce household income. Future treatment costs can be difficult to predict. Understandably, many injury victims worry about whether they can afford to hire an attorney while dealing with so many other challenges.
This arrangement allows injury victims to pursue justice without taking on additional financial pressure during an already difficult time. It also creates a shared goal between attorney and client: achieving the strongest possible outcome based on the facts of the case. Whether the claim involves a car accident, truck accident, catastrophic injury, or wrongful death lawsuit, Will remains committed to helping clients pursue the compensation they deserve while minimizing financial barriers to quality legal representation.
Many accident victims are facing enough financial stress already. Contingency fee agreements help ensure that individuals and families can obtain experienced legal representation without worrying about upfront legal costs.
This allows clients to focus on their recovery while knowing their attorney is focused on protecting their interests.
A successful attorney-client relationship should be built on trust and shared objectives. Because attorney's fees are tied to the outcome of the case, clients can move forward with confidence knowing that William Andrews has every incentive to pursue the strongest result possible. If there is no recovery, there is no attorney's fee.
Free Consultation Available 24 Hours a Day
Accidents rarely happen at convenient times. A serious collision on the weekend, a late-night trucking accident, or an unexpected catastrophic injury can leave victims and their families searching for answers when most offices are closed. Unfortunately, the decisions made during the hours and days immediately following an accident can have a lasting impact on a potential claim.
That is why William Andrews makes himself available to speak with injury victims and their families when they need guidance most. Whether you were injured in a car accident, truck collision, motorcycle crash, rideshare accident, pedestrian accident, or another negligence-related incident, a free consultation provides an opportunity to learn about your rights, ask questions, and better understand your legal options.
During the consultation, Will takes the time to listen to your concerns, learn about the circumstances surrounding the accident, and discuss potential next steps. There is no obligation to move forward, and the conversation is designed to provide clarity during what is often a confusing and stressful time.
Many law firms route prospective clients through multiple departments before they ever speak with an attorney. William Andrews believes injury victims deserve direct access to the lawyer who may ultimately handle their case.
This allows potential clients to receive personalized guidance and meaningful answers from the very beginning.
When serious injuries are involved, people often need information quickly. Questions regarding insurance companies, medical treatment, evidence preservation, and legal rights can arise at any time.
By making free consultations available 24 hours a day, Will helps injury victims access the information they need when it matters most.
