- Fatal Car Accidents Lawsuits
With over 6,553,255 people living in the state of Arizona, and some of the most dangerous roads in America located in our state, there are bound to be a number of fatal car accidents which occur. Unfortunately, in 2012, there were a total of 741 reported fatal auto accidents across the state, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation.
Recently, Popular Mechanics has deemed Interstate 10 as one of Americas Top 10 Most Dangerous Roads, as there are dozens of accidents, injuries, and fatalities that occur on it each and every year. While many drivers across the state do their best to avoid an accident, others seem to disregard the rules of the road and operate their vehicle negligently and recklessly, thus resulting in an alarming amount of accidents across Arizona and the United States.
When someone is injured or killed in a car accident, our lawyers at Phillips Law Group have great sympathy for these individuals and their families. Often times, everyone surrounding the victims of auto accidents suffer both emotionally, financially, and are forced to deal with an unexpected situation. If this situation sounds familiar, our Phoenix car accident lawyers believe that you may be entitled to compensation for your losses and damages.

Many companies talk about teamwork but few practice it. Many companies talk about an employee friendly environment but few actually provide it. At Phillips Law Group the foundation of our success is making sure we work as a team and that we work in an environment that allows everyone to thrive and be at their best every day. Our firm understands that in order for the client to have a great experience the people responsible for that client’s case must be given all the necessary tools and encouragement to make that happen. That’s the Phillips Way. As a manager of this firm in charge of several employees as well as directly affecting the client’s experience I take tremendous pride in saying we live by these premises and we work hard to build on them and make them better every day. This is an amazing place because it has amazing people working here!

Two family members were in a bad wreck a couple of years ago, and as a result called Phillips Law to represent them. Montana Thompson was the attorney assigned to the case with the help of Nemo Farr as legal assistant. Mr. Thompson litigated a very generous settlement for both my stepdaughter and her son. Because my grandson is a minor, I decided to act as conservator for him to ensure the settlement was safe and secure. Montana helped with that process, but it was Nemo who went way above and beyond the call in finding a financial institution to use for the restricted account. There were some glitches in that process but Nemo helped navigate them with a calm expertise which belies his age. I would consider them both great representatives of the level of commitment to their clients and assets to their firm.

I was recently served court documents that I was being sued from an accident that happened years ago. For someone who has never been through something like this and not familiar with the court lingo or where to even begin, it was very frustrating and stressful. I reached out to a family member who knew Tracy Laskos and the great reputation of Phillips Law Group and within the hours of the initial call for help, I had a direct number to Lead Attorney Nassar. Nassar heard my case and almost instantly put me at ease by explaining the process and how easy it was to handle. Nassar spoke to me like he was a friend, not like I was a client. I am so grateful to Tracy, Nasar and of course my cousin Stephanie for helping out and giving me the direction that I needed to get through this situation. I plan on referring my friends, family and patients that are in need of a personal injury Attorney to Phillips Law Group. Thank you!!
