Arizona is an at-fault state, so the driver who caused your Prescott 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.
SR 69’s approach into Prescott and the historic downtown around the courthouse square are common crash points.
High-traffic corridors where we frequently see car accidents in Prescott include SR 69, SR 89, Gurley Street, and Montezuma Street. Serious car accident injury claims arising in Prescott are generally litigated in the Yavapai County Superior Court.
Prescott is in Yavapai County, so cases are filed in Yavapai County Superior Court and a claim against the City of Prescott or Yavapai County requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01. At roughly 5,300 feet, Prescott sees winter snow and ice that rarely factor into Valley cases, and the mountain grades and curves on State Route 89 and State Route 69 produce rollover and run-off-road collisions rather than the intersection crashes common in metro Phoenix. The historic downtown around Courthouse Plaza and Whiskey Row concentrates pedestrian and late-night impaired-driving risk on narrow streets with limited sight lines.
We represent clients across the surrounding communities too, including car accident claims in Sedona and car accident claims in Phoenix.
