Personal injury cases in Phoenix often arise from avoidable incidents caused by negligence or recklessness. Some of the most common causes include:
Motor vehicle accidents (car, motorcycle, truck, and pedestrian)
Workplace accidents in construction and industrial settings
Slip and falls due to property owner negligence
Medical malpractice
Defective products or machinery
Dog bites and animal attacks
Nursing home abuse or neglect
Wrongful death due to a negligent or wrongful act
Our Phoenix personal injury attorneys understand the devastating impact of these incidents and work diligently to hold the responsible parties accountable.
To understand the urgent need for experienced personal injury lawyers in Phoenix, consider the following statistics:
Arizona reported 122,247 motor vehicle accidents in 2023, with 51,549 injuries and 1,307 fatalities, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT).
Phoenix alone accounted for nearly 30% of the state’s car crashes. (Make Roads Safe)
Slip and fall injuries remain one of the leading causes of ER visits in Arizona, particularly among the elderly. (Arizona Falls Prevention Coalition)
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries are most frequently caused by vehicle crashes and workplace accidents, both common in Phoenix’s fast-paced environment.
These statistics emphasize why having an experienced personal injury attorney is crucial when dealing with medical bills, lost wages, emotional trauma, and permanent injuries.
Under Arizona law, if you’ve been harmed due to someone else’s negligence or wrongful act, you have the right to pursue compensation. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Arizona is two years from the date of the accident. This includes:
Medical expenses and future medical costs
Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
Property damage (in vehicle accidents)
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Loss of consortium or enjoyment of life
Wrongful death compensation (for surviving family members)
Claimants can also seek non-economic damages which compensate for their quality-of-life impacts, such as pain and suffering.
At Harris Injury Law, we help you understand the legal process and ensure your personal injury claim is strong, timely, and backed by the necessary evidence. Arizona is a pure comparative negligence state, which means you may recover compensation even if you were partially at fault your recovery is simply reduced by your share of the blame (A.R.S. § 122505). Consulting with an attorney is crucial for maximizing potential compensation, especially in cases of partial fault.
There is no single “average” settlement that applies to every case the value of a Phoenix personal injury claim depends on your specific injuries, your financial losses, and how fault is assigned. In Arizona, the factors that most affect what a case is worth include:
Two features of Arizona law work in an injured person’s favor. First, Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence rule (A.R.S. § 12-2505): you can still recover compensation even if you were partly at fault, with your award reduced by your percentage of fault. Even someone found mostly responsible can recover a portion of their damages. Second, Arizona places no cap on most personal injury damages, so there is no state limit on compensation for medical costs, lost income, or pain and suffering in typical negligence cases.
Because every case turns on its own facts, the most reliable way to understand your claim’s value is a free case review.
Our law firm is prepared to handle a wide variety of personal injury cases in Phoenix and surrounding areas. We work with a results-driven mindset to help injury victims recover maximum compensation.
Our Practice Areas Include:
Car Accidents: From rear-end collisions to T-bone crashes and multi-car pileups, our Phoenix car accident lawyers are ready to help.
Truck Accidents: We take on large trucking companies and insurers to secure justice for victims of commercial vehicle crashes.
Motorcycle Accidents: Fighting against bias and proving liability for injured riders.
Workers’ Compensation: Helping clients recover wage loss benefits and medical coverage after workplace injuries.
Wrongful Death Claims: Compassionate representation for families seeking legal recourse after a fatal accident.
Premises Liability: Injuries caused by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property.
Medical Malpractice: Advocating for patients harmed by negligence in hospitals, clinics, or surgical centers.
We also assist with insurance company negotiations, liability insurance disputes, and litigation when fair settlement offers are denied. Insurance companies often use a formula to value personal injury claims based on medical expenses and income losses.
We know accidents don’t follow a 9-to-5 schedule, and neither do we. Whether you’re hospitalized, recovering at home, or unsure where to turn, our legal team is available 24/7 to help you navigate the legal system.

In most cases you have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit in Arizona (A.R.S. § 12-542). Important exceptions apply: claims against a government entity require a written Notice of Claim within 180 days and a lawsuit within one year; dog-bite strict-liability claims have a one-year deadline; and for injured minors the clock generally doesn’t start until they turn 18. Because missing a deadline can end your case entirely, it’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
Nothing upfront. Harris Injury Law handles personal injury cases on a contingency-fee basis, which means you pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Your initial consultation and case evaluation are free, and the fee terms are explained in writing before we begin.
Yes. Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence rule (A.R.S. § 12-2505), so you can recover compensation even if you share some of the blame. Your award is reduced by your percentage of fault for example, if you’re found 20% at fault, you can still recover 80% of your damages. An experienced attorney can work to minimize the share of fault assigned to you.
It depends on your medical costs, lost income, the severity of your injuries, the available insurance, and your share of fault there is no fixed average. Arizona places no cap on most personal injury damages, so recovery is based on your actual losses rather than a state limit. The most accurate way to estimate your claim’s value is a free case review with an attorney.
We handle a wide range of injury claims across Arizona, including car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, pedestrian and rideshare crashes, workers’ compensation, premises liability (slip and fall), medical malpractice, dog bites, and wrongful death. Attorney Jason Harris is one of the few Phoenix lawyers who regularly handles both personal injury and workers’ compensation matters.
Most personal injury claims settle without a trial. We work to negotiate a fair settlement with the insurance company first, and we’re fully prepared to file suit and take your case to court if the insurer refuses to offer what your claim is worth. You’ll be guided through every stage either way.
Get medical attention right away, even if you feel fine, and keep records of your treatment. Document the scene with photos, gather contact and insurance details, and report the incident. Avoid giving a recorded statement to the other side’s insurer, and contact a personal injury attorney before accepting any settlement offer early advice helps protect the value of your claim.
It varies. Straightforward claims may resolve in a few months, while cases involving serious injuries, disputed liability, or litigation can take considerably longer. Timelines depend on how long your medical treatment lasts, the complexity of proving fault, and whether the insurer negotiates in good faith. We move your case as efficiently as the facts allow.
