Jason A. Harris, founder of Harris Injury Law, is one of Arizona’s few attorneys experienced in both personal injury and workers’ compensation law. Since 2006, Jason has represented countless surviving family members in wrongful death lawsuits, auto accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, medical malpractice, and defective product claims.

Wrongful death may arise from many tragic circumstances, including:
Car accidents, truck accidents, and motorcycle accidents caused by reckless or impaired drivers
Medical malpractice – misdiagnosis, surgical errors, or hospital negligence
Defective products – unsafe machinery, faulty auto components, or consumer goods
Workplace incidents and third-party negligence
Premises liability – unsafe property conditions or negligent security
Pedestrian and bicycle accidents involving negligent motorists
Each wrongful death case is unique. Our Mesa personal injury lawyers conduct a comprehensive case evaluation to identify the responsible party and determine available legal options.
Mesa’s rapid growth and extensive roadway network contribute to a steady number of accidental deaths each year.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts: Mesa city, Arizona, Mesa has a population of more than 507,000 residents, making it the third-largest city in the state of Arizona.
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) reported 1,307 traffic fatalities statewide in 2023, including hundreds across Maricopa County, where Mesa is located.
Arizona also ranks among the nation’s highest for pedestrian danger. The NHTSA FARS Encyclopedia shows that in 2023, Arizona recorded 3.65 pedestrian deaths per 100,000 residents, the second-highest rate nationally.
The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) Injury Mortality tables for Maricopa County documented 706 motor-vehicle-related deaths in 2022, within 3,308 total accidental deaths that year.
These official data from ADOT, NHTSA, and ADHS demonstrate the ongoing need for skilled Mesa wrongful death attorneys who can help families pursue accountability through the legal process when negligence is alleged.
Under Arizona law, specific family members, including the surviving spouse, children, parents, or the estate’s personal representative, may bring a wrongful death claim against the at-fault party.
Important points to understand:
The statute of limitations generally allows two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death lawsuit.
Compensation may include medical bills, funeral expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship.
Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence rule, meaning damages are reduced by the decedent’s share of fault but are not eliminated entirely.
Wrongful death actions differ from personal injury cases; damages reflect the losses of surviving family members rather than the decedent’s injuries alone.
A qualified Mesa wrongful death attorney can guide you through the legal process, ensuring deadlines are met and every category of loss is properly documented.
