Arizona is an at-fault state, so the driver who caused your Phoenix crash, and their insurer, owes your damages. Under pure comparative negligence (A.R.S. § 12-2505) you can recover even if you were partly at fault, with your award reduced by your share. Every driver must carry at least $25,000/$50,000 in liability coverage (A.R.S. § 28-4009), and you generally have two years to file (A.R.S. § 12-542). Most Arizona injury claims must be filed within two years of the incident (A.R.S. § 12-542), and a claim involving a city, county or the state requires a formal notice of claim within 180 days (A.R.S. § 12-821.01). Because Arizona applies pure comparative negligence, an insurer assigning you part of the blame reduces what you recover rather than ending the claim, which is why adjusters raise it early. Consultations are free and there is no fee unless we win.

Generally two years from the date of the crash (A.R.S. § 12-542). If a government vehicle or entity is involved, a Notice of Claim is due within 180 days.
Arizona’s pure comparative negligence rule (A.R.S. § 12-2505) still lets you recover, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault, not eliminated.
Phoenix’s freeway interchanges, the Stack (I-10/I-17) and the Mini Stack (I-10/SR 51/Loop 202), and wide arterials like Camelback Road and Bell Road carry some of the highest crash volumes in the state.
High-traffic corridors where we frequently see car accidents in Phoenix include I-10, I-17, Loop 101, Loop 202, and SR 51 (the Piestewa Freeway). Serious car accident injury claims arising in Phoenix are generally litigated in the Maricopa County Superior Court.
Phoenix is the seat of Maricopa County, so a collision here can involve city, county, or state defendants depending on the road. That distinction matters: a claim against the City of Phoenix or Maricopa County is a claim against a public entity, requiring a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01 and suit within one year, far shorter than the usual two-year deadline. Downtown’s one-way grid on Central, 1st, and 3rd, the light rail corridor along Washington and Jefferson, and heavy foot traffic around Chase Field and the Convention Center produce a different injury pattern than the wide suburban arterials north of Bell Road. Monsoon storms from June through September add blowing dust and flash flooding across the freeway system.
If your car accident happened outside Phoenix, we take car accident claims in South Phoenix and car accident claims in Scottsdale as well.
