Kristen Mendoza

Kristen Mendoza works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. If your case is successful, the attorney's fee is a percentage of your settlement or award — typically 15–25% in Utah. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Kristen Mendoza handles all types of workers' compensation cases in Utah, including Workers Compensation, Psychological Injuries, Stress Claims, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.

In Utah, you generally must report your injury to your employer within 30 days and file a formal claim within 1–2 years of the injury date. These deadlines are strict — missing them can cost you your benefits. Contact Kristen immediately after any workplace injury.

Yes — claim denials are one of Kristen Mendoza's specialties. Insurance companies routinely deny valid claims hoping workers won't fight back. With 23 years of experience in Utah workers' comp law, Kristen knows exactly how to appeal denials and fight for the benefits you're entitled to.

Kristen Mendoza primarily serves clients in Taylorsville and the surrounding Utah area, but handles cases throughout the state. If you're in Utah and were injured at work, contact Kristen's office for a free consultation regardless of your location.
