Arizona’s wrongful death statute (A.R.S. §§ 12-611 to 12-613) lets a surviving spouse, children, or parents, in that priority, bring a single claim for a Chandler family’s loss. A separate survival action (A.R.S. § 14-3110) recovers the deceased’s own pre-death losses. The deadline is generally two years from the date of death (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.

Chandler is in Maricopa County, with cases filed in Maricopa County Superior Court and a 180-day notice of claim under A.R.S. § 12-821.01 where the City of Chandler is a defendant. The Loop 101 and Loop 202 Santan interchange carries heavy commuter and freight volume, and Chandler’s large employment corridor along Price Road concentrates rush-hour traffic into a small number of arterials. Downtown Chandler around Arizona Avenue and Boston Street draws restaurant and nightlife traffic, while the wide, high-speed grid on Ray, Warner, and Chandler Boulevard leaves pedestrians and cyclists crossing long distances between signals.
