Questions
What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
We handle all major personal injury cases including car accidents, motorcycle collisions, slip-and-fall incidents, dog bites, wrongful death claims, and catastrophic injuries caused by negligence.
How much does it cost to hire your firm?
We work on a contingency fee basis – you pay nothing upfront. Our fee comes from the compensation we recover in your case, with no payment if we don't win.
Do I need to go to court for my injury claim?
Most cases settle out of court through negotiations. We prepare every case for trial to maximize leverage, but only proceed to court when necessary to achieve fair compensation.
How long do I have to file an injury claim?
Arizona's statute of limitations is generally 2 years for personal injury and wrongful death claims. Contact us immediately to ensure timely evidence preservation and case building.
What if the insurance company offers a quick settlement?
Avoid signing settlement agreements without legal review. We assess offer fairness, considering long-term medical needs and hidden damages, to ensure full compensation recovery.
Can I afford quality medical care during my case?
We connect clients with top medical providers who agree to delayed payment until case resolution, ensuring access to necessary treatment without upfront costs.
