Your Yuma motorcycle accident attorney will also collect police reports and medical records that connects your injury to the accident. It is difficult to prove the seriousness of your case without showing medical documents. In fact, if you fail to seek medical attention following an accident, insurance adjusters may determine that the accident is not serious, which could possibly devalue your case.

Thoroughly Investigate the Accident

It may be necessary to recreate the accident scene to get a better understanding of how the accident occurred. Our lawyers will hire the right team to reconstruct the accident. We will also look into the at-fault driver’s driving history and any traffic violations that he or she may have.

We will also find witnesses who can attest to what they saw and gather their statements which we can use as supportive evidence.

Handle Negotiations

    • 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.
    • Thank you Phillips Law Group for all the support and back to school assistance we appreciate it.
    • Liz Gonzales was great!!!!
