Mr. Tyler S Call, Attorney at Law

Prior to joining Hepworth & Murray in 2016, Tyler worked in the Office of General Counsel – International for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where he worked on a variety of legal matters ranging from income tax issues, immigration, real estate transactions, and employment matters.  Although he enjoyed the comforts of corporate life, Tyler’s real passion is advocacy, whether in the courtroom or the across the negotiation table.

Tyler earned his law degree from the University of Oregon School of Law, where he received high marks in trial advocacy and was known around school for being a bit of trial junky.  While in law school he worked in the public defender’s office as a court-certified law student where he represented three criminal defendants in jury trials before he even graduated.  Also during law school, he received expert training in Alternative Dispute Resolution through the nationally ranked Oregon ADR Center.

Born and raised in Davis County, Tyler takes advantage of all that Utah has to offer from the great culture and entertainment found in our cities to the amazing outdoor recreation that is only an hour or so away.  In his free time, Tyler enjoys being active in his community and spending time with family.

• Some car accidents are catastrophic; others are relatively minor by comparison. In either scenario, auto collisions are never a positive thing for those involved. Even minor crashes can result in life-altering injuries, including permanent injury from relatively low-speed car accidents. So, can a 5-mph car crash cause permanent injury? Absolutely. Just because a car crash didn’t result in broken bones, lacerations, or other highly observable injuries doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t consult a doctor or contact an attorney.
  
  According to the 2016 Utah Crash Facts provided by the Utah Department of Public Safety, “Speed is the leading unsafe driving behavior that contributes to deaths.”[i] In fact, “Speed was a factor in 38% of fatal crashes.”[i] Statistically speaking, roughly 15% of speed-related accidents occurred under 30 mph.[i] However, there can still be a permanent injury from low-speed car accidents. Even if the low speed didn’t result in substantial damage to your car, vehicle damage or “property damage is neither a valid predictor of acute injury risk nor of symptom duration.”[ii] Often times, victims of car accidents brush aside the nagging soreness and stiffness in their neck, back, or head simply because they feel the car accident itself wasn’t severe enough. In reality, it doesn’t take much to result in life-changing damage to your body. According to some authorities, “no treatment currently exists to restore an injured tendon or ligament to its normal condition.”[iii] In addition, “Ligament healing is often slow and incomplete, as is the joint laxity caused by ligament injury which shows improvement gradually over a period of six weeks to a year after injury,” but “even at this point, objective mechanical laxity and subjective joint instability are still observed in a large percentage of patients.”[iv] Don’t discount the possibility of sustaining permanent injury from low-speed car accidents. Can a 5-mph car crash cause permanent injury? It certainly can. It would be wise to see a doctor and contact an attorney if you have been injured. The attorneys at Hepworth & Associates can help you seek compensation for any personal injuries you may have sustained as a result of a car crash.
