If you or a loved one has been injured in a rear end accident in Mesa, AZ, you may be dealing with injuries, medical bills, and uncertainty about your options. At Harris Injury Law, our legal team understands the physical, emotional, and financial toll that motor vehicle accidents can cause. We are dedicated to assisting Mesa car accident victims in pursuing compensation under Arizona law.
Led by Attorney Jason Harris, a Mesa personal injury lawyer with more than 16 years of experience, our firm provides compassionate and experienced representation for clients across the East Valley and throughout Maricopa County. We handle auto, truck, and rear end collision claims to assist injured victims in seeking compensation for their injuries under Arizona law.
We offer contingency fee representation, meaning attorney’s fees typically only apply if we obtain a recovery. Additional costs may still apply.
Not every law firm provides the same level of personal attention or local understanding. Mesa residents turn to Harris Injury Law because we bring both skill and commitment to every rear end accident case we handle.
We have experience with personal injury cases, including auto collisions, truck wrecks, and wrongful death matters. Our experienced car accident lawyers understand the complexities of Arizona traffic laws, insurance negotiations, and courtroom litigation.
When you hire Harris Injury Law, you’ll work directly with an experienced attorney, not a case manager or call center. Jason Harris personally oversees your case and ensures you receive updates every step of the way.
Our Mesa car accident attorneys know the city’s most accident-prone areas, such as Country Club Drive, Southern Avenue, and U.S. 60, where rear end collisions are unfortunately common. This local insight helps us build stronger cases using police reports, witness statements, and traffic data.
We focus on quality legal help and client communication. From your first call to final resolution, our team makes sure your legal rights are protected and that your injury claim is handled efficiently and thoroughly.
Jason A. Harris is one of Arizona’s few attorneys with dual experience in personal injury and workers’ compensation law.

His ability to handle both personal injury claims and workers’ compensation cases provides clients with comprehensive representation, especially in complex situations involving employment and auto injury overlaps.
Outside of work, Jason values time with his wife, Marisa, and their two children. His integrity and accessibility are cornerstones of his practice, clients can contact our firm at any time, and we strive to return calls and messages promptly, even outside regular hours.
Rear end accidents often occur due to another driver’s negligence or inattention. Our Mesa rear end accident lawyers frequently handle cases involving:
Distracted driving, texting, eating, or using a GPS while behind the wheel
Following too closely or tailgating in heavy traffic
Drunk driving or impairment due to alcohol or drugs
Speeding or sudden braking on congested roads
Defective brakes or mechanical failures
Government entity road maintenance issues such as poor signage or malfunctioning signals
Whether caused by a drunk driver, a government entity, or another at fault party, these accidents can lead to devastating injuries requiring immediate medical care and long-term rehabilitation.
According to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), Arizona recorded 122,247 total crashes in 2023. Within multi-unit crashes, rear-end collisions accounted for 39,244 crashes, 38.11% of the total, making them the most common manner of collision in multi-vehicle wrecks statewide.
Maricopa County reported 87,237 total crashes in 2023, and the City of Mesa accounted for 7,534 crashes, underscoring the need for focused safety and legal resources in the East Valley. These figures come from ADOT’s “Crash Facts Report: 2023 Analysis by Jurisdiction.”
For national context, rear-end crashes have historically represented about 29% of all crashes across the United States, per the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). While national distributions vary by year, the Arizona data above shows a similar pattern, rear-end impacts remain a leading crash type in multi-vehicle incidents.
After a rear end collision, Arizona law allows injured individuals to pursue a personal injury claim against the at fault driver or their driver’s insurance company. Even if you believe the crash was minor, it’s crucial to seek medical treatment immediately. Some soft tissue injuries and traumatic brain injuries may not appear right away but can worsen over time.
You may be entitled to recover compensation for:
Medical bills and medical expenses
Lost wages and future income loss
Property damage to your vehicle
Pain and suffering or emotional distress
Wrongful death damages if a loved one is killed
Arizona follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning your recovery may be reduced if you share some fault. Having an experienced car accident lawyer ensures your rights are protected and that the other driver is held accountable.
At Harris Injury Law, we handle every aspect of your case so you can focus on healing. Here’s how our Mesa car accident attorneys help clients after a rear end accident:
We gather police reports, medical records, and witness statements to establish liability. Our team also works with accident reconstruction specialists to help establish the other driver’s negligence and helps ensure evidence is preserved.
Insurance adjusters often try to minimize payouts. We communicate with the insurance company, manage negotiations, and advocate for a settlement that addresses your medical care, lost wages, and damages. If the insurer refuses to act in good faith, we are prepared to take your case to trial.
Rear end accidents can cause anything from soft tissue injuries and broken bones to traumatic brain injuries. We ensure your medical treatment and rehabilitation are properly documented to demonstrate the full scope of your losses.
Our personal injury attorneys work to help car accident victims recover compensation permitted by law. We seek compensation for all recoverable damages, including ongoing care, emotional trauma, and diminished quality of life.
We have experience managing cases involving drunk driving, uninsured motorists, government entities, and multi-vehicle collisions. Whatever the situation, we provide the legal help you need to navigate the process confidently.
Accidents don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. The team at Harris Injury Law is available 24/7 to assist clients throughout Mesa, AZ, and surrounding East Valley communities such as Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, and Apache Junction.
We understand that car accident victims often need immediate answers about medical attention, property damage, and insurance coverage. When you call us, you’re connected with an attorney rather than a call center.
We also offer free consultations with no obligation, so you can get trusted advice before deciding how to move forward.
