Arizona’s statute of limitations gives you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This applies whether your accident happened on Interstate 10 west of the Loop 303 or anywhere else in Buckeye. Two years sounds like a long time, but evidence disappears and witnesses forget. Contact a lawyer as soon as possible after your accident.

Call 911 and get medical attention at Abrazo Buckeye Emergency Center even if you feel fine. Document the scene with photos, exchange information with the other driver, and do not admit fault. Do not give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurance company. Contact a personal injury attorney before accepting any settlement offer.

Arizona follows a modified comparative fault rule with a 51% bar. If you were less than 51% at fault for your accident in Buckeye, you can still recover compensation, but it will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 20% at fault and your damages are $100,000, you would receive $80,000.

If you have significant injuries, the insurance company is disputing your claim, or the accident involved a commercial vehicle on Interstate 10 west of the Loop 303, a lawyer can significantly increase your recovery. Insurance companies have teams of adjusters working to minimize what they pay. Your case is filed through Buckeye Municipal Court or Maricopa County Superior Court.
