Did you know there’s a sneaky clause in your auto insurance policy that could leave you high and dry after an accident? As Salt Lake City’s premier personal injury attorneys, we’ve seen countless victims blindsided by the auto business exclusion. Don’t let it happen to you!

The Auto Business Exclusion Trap

Picture this: You drop your car off for a simple oil change. The mechanic takes it for a test drive and boom! They’re in an accident. You think you’re covered, right? Not so fast!

Here’s the shocking truth:

1. Many policies exclude coverage when your car is being used for “auto business” purposes.
2. This could mean repairs, servicing, selling, or even parking your car.
3. You could be left without coverage when you need it most!

The Utah Loophole

Utah law allows insurers to step down coverage for “motor vehicle businesses.” This means:

1. Your coverage could be reduced to state minimums.
2. In some cases, you might have no coverage at all!

We represented a client whose car was totaled during a routine service. The insurance company denied the claim, citing the auto business exclusion. The repair shop’s insurance? Insufficient to cover the damages. Our client was left holding the bag – until we stepped in.

Navigating these exclusions requires expert knowledge of Utah’s complex insurance laws. At Christian Burridge Law Firm, we:

1. Scrutinize policy language to find coverage loopholes.
2. Identify all potential sources of compensation.
