Do I Have a Case?
This is very difficult to determine without the help of an experienced Glendale car accident lawyer. There are many factors that must be considered to determine if an injured victim may be eligible to pursue compensation, including:
- Accident details
- Photos of the accident scene and your injuries
- Police report
- Witness statements
- Determination of liability
- Crash scene evidence
Our attorneys offer a free initial consultation to review your claim. It costs you nothing to discuss your accident and potential legal options with one of our licensed attorneys.

What if I May Have Been Partially at Fault?
If an injured motorist shares liability for an accident, he or she may believe it disqualifies him or her from being able to recover damages. However, this is not true.
Arizona’s comparative negligence law does not prohibit victims who share liability for the accident from pursuing compensation. However, if your attorney is able to recover damages on your behalf, the law mandates your final award be reduced according to your percentage of fault.
This is a common concern one of our Glendale car accident lawyers can discuss further in a free legal consultation.

How Much is My Case Worth?
Placing a specific value on any claim requires a full understanding of all the contributing factors leading to your accident. However, if your case has merit, you may be eligible to pursue several types of damages in an injury claim. These damages are generally divided into two areas:
Economic Compensation
Economic damages have an easily defined value and may include:
- Transportation to the hospital in an ambulance
- Surgery to treat your injuries
- Tests, like blood tests, X-rays and MRIs
- Rehabilitation or physical therapy
- Medications prescribed by your doctor
- Follow-up appointments
- Cost to repair or replace your vehicle
- Lost wages for days or hours you missed work
- Lost earning capacity if you are unable to work in the same field or capacity as before
- Cost to repair or replace other personal property damaged in the accident
Non-Economic Compensation
You may also be eligible for non-economic damages ”“ commonly called pain and suffering – for the physical pain or any psychological problems resulting from the accident, which could include:
- Lost enjoyment of life
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Post-traumatic stress
- Loss of companionship
- Disfigurement
Arizona does not have a cap on economic or non-economic damages in personal injury cases, so car accident victims with a valid case are able to pursue the full value of his or her damages.

When the Other Driver Has No Insurance
If you are involved in an accident with an uninsured motorist, you may wonder whether there is any possibility of recovering damages.
This is a valid concern, and something we recommend you discuss in detail with our attorneys. However, in many cases, you may be able to pursue compensation from the uninsured motorist (UM) portion of your own insurance policy. Additionally, if the at-fault driver has some insurance, but it is inadequate to fully cover your damages, you may also be able to pursue additional compensation from the underinsured motorist (UIM) portion of your policy.
Insurance claims are often lengthy and complicated, which is why we encourage you to contact a trusted car accident attorney, like the ones at Phillips Law Group. We are well-versed in Arizona’s insurance requirements and can help ensure you are aware of all your recovery options. We welcome the chance to discuss how we may be able to pursue fair compensation on your behalf.

What is the Deadline for Filing a Case?
Arizona has a strict statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits, which means a claim must be filed by the injured victim ”“ or his or her attorney – within two years from the date of the accident. However, there are some exceptions to this two-year deadline:
- If the at-fault party was a public entity or employee, that time is reduced to 180 days
- For minor victims under age 18, the filing deadline is two years from their 18th birthday
- If the injured victim is determined to have an unsound mind, the statute of limitations is also stopped or stalled. The statute restarts when the person is declared mentally sound
Other exceptions may apply to your claim, but it is important to discuss your claim with one of our Glendale car accident attorneys as soon as possible. If your claim has merit, your lawyer will need time to gather evidence and build a case.
Contact our office today to arrange your free consultation. It is an excellent opportunity to discuss your potential claim and ask questions about how the personal injury legal process works.

How Does Arizona’s Fault-Based System Work in a Car Accident?
In a fault state like Arizona, accident victims have three options for pursuing compensation, including:
- Filing an insurance claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance company
- Filing a claim with their own insurance company
- Filing a personal injury lawsuit against the at-fault driver
While the at-fault motorist is financially liable for all of the injured party’s damages, the accident victim must prove the negligence of the at-fault driver. The elements of fault you ”“ or your attorney ”“ will be required to prove, include:
- Duty of Care ”“The other driver owed you a reasonable duty to operate his or her vehicle safely and obey local traffic laws
- Breach of Duty of Care ”“ If the other driver ran through a red light and crashed into your vehicle, his or her negligence to obey the traffic signal may have been a breach of his or her duty of care.
- Causation ”“ Your injuries were a direct result of the at-fault driver’s negligence. For example, if your arm was fractured in the accident caused by the at-fault party.
- Verifiable Damages were suffered ”“ You need tangible evidence to prove the extent of your damages, such as medical records and bills.
Establishing negligence of the at-fault party is difficult to do on your own, but our attorneys are well-versed in Arizona laws and know how to build a strong case.

How to Deal with the Insurance Company if They Call You
There is a very good chance the at-fault driver’s insurance company may contact you asking for a statement. If this happens, be careful not to say too much about your injuries or provide details about the accident. The insurance company may try to trick you using various underhanded methods to reduce or deny your claim, such as:
- Getting you to unknowingly admit a degree of fault over the phone
- Convincing you that you are required to make a recorded statement about the accident
- Giving you a lowball offer to avoid paying a fair compensation
It is generally a good strategy to allow your Glendale auto accident lawyer to speak to the insurance company on your behalf. Our attorneys know how to protect the value of a car accident claim throughout the legal process. We are also prepared to go to court if the insurance company does not agree to a fair settlement.
Common Reasons for Car Accidents
There are many forms of negligence that result in car accidents, including:
- Disobeying the speed limit
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Ignoring a stop sign or red light
- Violating right-of-way laws
- Tailgating
- Drowsy driving
- Distracted driving
- Failing to check blind spots
- Going the wrong way
- Reckless driving in bad weather
Car Accidents That Often Cause Serious Injuries:
Some of the most common car accidents include:
- Head-on collisions
- Rear-end crashes
- Sideswipe crashes
- Rollover accidents
- Multi-vehicle accidents
- Failure-to-yield crashes
If you or a loved one were injured because of someone else’s negligent driving, we recommend that you contact us as soon as possible so we can determine if you may have a valid claim against the other motorist. We understand you may have questions or concerns about how the legal process works, and we are here to help.

What Our Clients Are Saying

When in pain because of an accident all you want to do is focus on getting better and that is what did thanks to this firm. My family and I were set up with a Dr and Chiro right away. The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.
Erika A.
I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group. I decided to give them a call about my accident, and they were very respectful and took in my case immediately. They assigned me Tim LeDuc to represent me. From the beginning, he was very responsive and made sure to give me the proper care I deserved from this accident. Him and his team fought tooth and nail to give me the best settlement I deserved. I am so thankful, and I highly recommend Phillips Law Group to represent anyone who has been in any accident and...
Emily N.
My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...

Phillips Law Group made dealing with our auto accident easy. They always had our best interest in mind and made sure that we were happy with treatment before finalizing anything. Our Paralegal, Amy Wagner, is amazing! She checked in on us throughout the entire process to make sure our treatments were going well and that we were getting better, getting healthy was first priority. She kept us informed on the progress of our case every step of the way and was very prompt with either calling or emailing us back with any questions that we had. We are very satisfied with our experience with Phillips Law Group, and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of representation!
Squaw Peak Realty
I never thought it could happen to me, I had heard about it on the news, but truly never thought it could happen to me. I was rear ended by a drunk driver. I was lost on what to do. My car insurance company would give no directions, I and my grandson were injured, my little pick- up was smashed, I was not the one who was at fault, but I felt like I was because I could get no help on what to do! You would think that your car insurance company would at least point you in the right direction. So, I contacted Phillips Law Group, I truly never ever thought I would need the help they provided...
Jeffrey J.
Phillips Law Group helped me out a lot with my motorcycle accident. They're attentive to your needs, always have answers to your questions, and answered all my calls, never leaving me in the dark. I highly recommend Phillips Law Group.
Anthony W.
I just wanna say that I’m young and have never had an incident needing something like Philips law and I’m glad I went with them. After my accident I was paralyzed with stress on how am I gonna recover from this what do I do, but they literally took majority if not all the worry away. I really only went to my appointments and kept them updated as much I can and eventually helped me win my case. It was a quick process as well for receiving compensation very grateful. Thank you!
Sherman S.
One of the best experiences I have ever had dealing with a accident attorneys. They made me feel welcomed. They definitely listened to me and help guide me through this process with ease.

I want to say for this being my first accident and unclear on what to do. They were amazing, from communication and making sure you have everything you need. The other insurance was giving me a hard time with my rental, I called my attorney at Philips Law Group and they made sure I had a vehicle to get around. They made sure I got the best care with amazing staff. They handle my case with care and at the end they still make sure I am okay. I appreciate you guys for not taking advantage of me and putting me first. It was not about the money but making sure I had everything I need and what was owed...

I feel that I was truly blessed to find the Phillips Law Group after being involved in a bad car accident. My attorney and the staff were professional and very supportive.

The firm set me up with healthcare providers and really went the extra mile to help me with my case. I’m happy with my settlement and for all of their help.
Tea J.
Aaron my attorney and Jasmine my paralegal were great. Throughout the settlement process, Jasmine did a great job of keeping me in the loop of everything going on. It is a long process but being reassured during the process was helpful. Throughout the process I was provided a chiropractor and physical therapist and they all made sure that I was taken care of and feeling better before releasing me. I was also provided a trauma therapist. Though I still think about the accident and struggle here and there, my therapist did a great job of giving me the help i needed in the months following the accident. I hope to never go through this again but if need be, I...

Amazing Law Firm after getting the run around from the Insurance companies, I decided to call Phillips Law Group and initially spoke with Randy he was so helpful and kind, he truly cared about my situation and was explaining to me everything about what typically happens after an Accident....It just so happened to be exactly what I was dealing with. I felt at ease during our conversation like a weight had been lifted and at that point, I knew I made the right decision contacting them, and shortly there after I retained their services. I was contacted by my Attorney and Case manager within and hour and they assured me all my needs would be met - helping me with...
Grant F.
Having never been in automobile wreck before, I found myself in uncharted territory. Thankfully I ended up choicing Phillips Law Group. They took charge of my case! I want to especially acknowledge McKenna, my case manager. Without her listening -- to my good days as well some bad days due to injuries -- I would have been lost. If you ever need a Law firm, think about talking to Phillips Law Group. You won't be sorry.
Matt S.
I had a fantastic experience during a difficult time. In particular, my paralegal Brittany was extremely helpful and answered all of my questions in a timely manner and made the process very smooth. I would definitely recommend.
