A young city on fast roads
Herriman sits at the southwest edge of the Salt Lake Valley, against the Oquirrh foothills. The Mountain View Corridor (SR-85) runs through the city, and 13400 South, Herriman Parkway, Herriman Main Street and Redwood Road connect neighborhoods to Riverton, South Jordan and Bangerter Highway.
Rapid development means construction traffic, new signals and changing road layouts. Crashes involving work trucks and delivery vehicles are common in growing areas, and they often involve commercial insurance policies and more than one responsible party.
Families, schools and recreation
Herriman has many young families, schools and parks, along with trail and off-road recreation in the foothills. Pedestrian, bicycle and recreational injuries can be serious. When a child is hurt, special rules apply to the claim, including how settlements are approved, so get advice before signing anything.
If you were injured on someone else’s property, such as a rental, a business or a construction site, the property owner’s insurance may be responsible, depending on what they knew about the hazard.
Insurance questions in a growing city
Many Herriman households carry the Utah minimum auto coverage or a little more. When an at-fault driver’s liability limits are small compared with the injuries, your own underinsured motorist coverage can be essential. We review every policy that might apply, including household policies and any commercial coverage on a work vehicle, before advising you on any offer. You get a named case manager who keeps you updated without you having to chase anyone.
What the law means for your claim
Utah generally allows four years to file a negligence claim (Utah Code § 78B-2-307), two years for wrongful death (§ 78B-2-304), and only one year to file a notice of claim when a government entity is involved (§ 63G-7-402). Under Utah’s modified comparative fault rule, you can recover only if the other side’s fault exceeds yours, and your recovery is reduced by your share (§ 78B-5-818). At 50% you recover nothing.
If a Herriman case has to be filed, it goes to the Third Judicial District Court, which hears Salt Lake County cases at the Matheson Courthouse (450 S State St) and the West Jordan courthouse (8080 S Redwood Rd). Most claims settle without a trial, but we build every file so it is ready if one is needed.
