Assigning a specific monetary amount to any claim requires a thorough understanding of these and all other contributing factors.
You may be able to pursue the following damages for the injuries you suffered:
Compensatory Damages ”“ Any tangible expenses that are directly related to the injuries you sustained. This could include:
General Damages ”“ This refers to the physical and emotional toll of your injuries, such as pain and suffering, lost enjoyment of life, lost consortium, disfigurement and inconvenience.
Punitive Damages ”“ These are damages that are intended to punish rather than reward and are only awarded in cases where a defendant’s behavior is deemed as malicious or reckless.
In a defective products case, there are typically three types of liability:
Strict liability ”“ The majority of defective product cases are filed under the theory of strict liability. The plaintiff, or injured party, must provide evidence that the product is defective and the user sustained an injury because of the defect.
Negligence ”“ Carelessness that results in a defective product during the design or manufacturing of a product and may cause injury to a user. The injury must have been directly caused by the defect in the product.
Breach of Warranty ”“ There are generally two types of warranties when you purchase a product ”“ either an expressly stated warranty ”“ typically offered by the retailer or manufacturer in writing ”“ or an implied warranty, which implies safety when the product is used as the manufacturer intended.
When injured victims hire a licensed attorney to manage their personal injury claim, they often receive a higher compensatory award than if they did not.

We are prepared to handle all communication with insurance companies to protect your claim from attempts to devalue it or discredit you.

It is important to mention that most personal injury claims must be filed within two years from the date of the injury, according to Arizona’s statute of limitations. There are some exceptions to that filing deadline, and in some cases, that means filing within a significantly shorter time frame. For example, if you are considering pursuing a claim against a government entity, you must file notice of claim within 180 days of the injury.
If you are unsure when your deadline is, we highly recommend that you contact our office today. Any further delay could result in you missing your opportunity to file. Once the deadline for your claim passes, the courts are likely to bar your claim altogether.
