Attention Salt Lake City drivers! There’s a ticking time bomb in your Underinsured Motorist (UIM) policy that could explode your chance at fair compensation. As Utah’s leading personal injury firm, we’re sounding the alarm on the UIM arbitration clause – a legal trap that’s costing victims thousands.

The Arbitration Trap

Here’s the shocking truth about UIM arbitration in Utah:

1. You have just 20 days to request arbitration after receiving an award
2. Miss this deadline, and you could lose your right to challenge the amount
3. Insurance companies are banking on you not knowing this

The “Trial De Novo” Tightrope

Even if you request arbitration in time, you’re walking a legal tightrope:

1. You must obtain a verdict at least $5,000 and 20% greater than the arbitration award
2. Fall short, and you’re on the hook for the insurance company’s costs
3. These costs can eat up a significant portion of your award

Why Salt Lake City Accident Victims Need Expert Help

The UIM arbitration process is a minefield:
