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 Kingman 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.

The I-40/US 93 junction routes heavy Las Vegas-bound and freight traffic through Kingman.
High-traffic corridors where we frequently see wrongful deaths in Kingman include I-40, US 93, Stockton Hill Road, and Andy Devine Avenue (Route 66). Serious wrongful death injury claims arising in Kingman are generally litigated in the Mohave County Superior Court.
Kingman is the seat of Mohave County, so cases are filed in Mohave County Superior Court and a claim against the City of Kingman or Mohave County requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01. Kingman sits at the junction of I-40 and US 93, the main freight route between Phoenix and Las Vegas, and long-haul trucking dominates the traffic mix. The rural stretches outside town produce high-speed head-on, rollover, and fatigue-related collisions rather than the intersection crashes common in the Valley, and out-of-state drivers and carriers appear in a large share of claims. Distances to trauma care are substantial, which affects both injury severity and the medical record available afterward.
If your wrongful death happened outside Kingman, we take wrongful death claims in Lake Havasu City and wrongful death claims in Phoenix as well.
