- What is a Motorcycle Endorsement?
When a drivers motorcycle license is combined with any other type of driver license it is considered an endorsement. Under Arizona law, motorcyclists are required to carry a motorcycle endorsement, or a license for the specific class of vehicle they will be operating. The Arizona Department of Transportation requires a Class M endorsement to be legally eligible to drive a motorcycle.

How do I Obtain a Motorcycle Endorsement?
The requirements for receiving a motorcycle endorsement or license in the state of Arizona differ depending on the riders age.
Under the age of 18
If a rider is under the age of 18, prior to receiving a Class M license, Arizona motorcyclists must apply for a Motorcycle Instruction Permit. To qualify for the permit the rider must
- Be at least 15 and 6 months old
- Pass a vision screening
- Pass a written exam
- Carry a Class D driver license
The permit is valid for seven months and can be renewed once within a 24 month period. There are restrictions for this permit, however, including no carrying passengers, no driving on freeways, and no driving in the dark.
Over the age of 18
Those over the age of 18 can apply for a Class M endorsement by:
- Passing a vision test
- Passing a knowledge test
- Passing an on-cycle skills test
- Pay the $7 endorsement fee
Following the states rules and regulations are imperative if a driver wants to receive their motorcycle endorsement. It is important that riders learn the proper way to manage potentially dangerous road hazards to lessen the chance of being involved in an accident or being the cause of one.

Juan Roque has been integral with my legal needs. Communication has been easy. He conveys information I can easily understand without a lot of "Legal Fluff" jargon. I will certainly do business with Phillips Legal team again and refer them to my friends and family.

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.

My Attorney Sean Davis and his paralegal Hannah Dustin worked on my case. They listened to the problems that I was having with my case and they both got right to work. First they found me a doctor that actually listened to my problems from my car accident and worked quickly to form a plan that was comfortable for me and the doctor. The doctor was the best and after a couple of procedures the pain in my neck was gone. Behind the scenes Sean and Hannah were working hard to get my case settled with the insurance company. They kept in contact with me on all aspects of my case. They settled my case much faster than I expected and for more than I was expecting. If you want two real professional legal people to work on your case, I would highly recommend Sean and Hannah to you. I cannot say enough nice things about these two. Thank you so much, Rickey Hart .

I tried a few previous law firms and none would take my car accident case with confidence they could get my anything. Phillips law group took my case and although it took around 4 years to get this case settled as I was in treatment, they never let up with insurance adjusters and they got me as much money as possible. They worked hard for me and advocated for me. Shoutout to key individuals who worked my case nonstop of the years, Robert Ross & Jasmine, you are AMAZING!
