Probate in Utah
Utah charges a flat court fee and pays executors and attorneys reasonable fees, which are approved automatically if no one objects in time. A small estate affidavit covers personal property up to a limit, and a second path has no dollar cap. Publishing the creditor notice is optional, and that one choice changes the timeline more than anything else. Utah has no estate or inheritance tax.
Personal Injury in Utah
Utah gives four years for most injury claims, shorter for wrongful death. Recovery is barred at exactly 50% fault, and for car accidents a no-fault PIP threshold must be crossed before the fault analysis even applies. There is no general damage cap, medical malpractice has its own cap and attorney fees have no legislative cap, backed by a separation-of-powers ruling.
Family Law in Utah
Utah calculates child support with a statutory table, a low-income table and a joint custody formula that applies from a set number of overnights. There is no alimony formula, and the term cannot exceed the length of the marriage. Marital property is divided equitably, not necessarily equally, and non-marital property is protected. A divorce can be filed after 90 days of county residence and granted after a 30-day wait.
