Representative Case Categories

Every case is different. The categories below reflect the kinds of results we have obtained for clients. Specific amounts are not disclosed without client consent and vary widely based on injury severity, liability, available coverage, and jurisdiction.

Motor Vehicle Collisions

Auto-accident recoveries have ranged from low five figures for soft-tissue injuries with clean medical documentation to seven figures in cases involving permanent impairment, traumatic brain injury, or fatality. Outcomes depend on who caused the crash, available policy limits under A.R.S. § 28-4135, and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.

Commercial Truck & 18-Wheeler Crashes

Commercial carriers carry substantially higher insurance minimums than passenger vehicles, which directly impacts recovery ceilings. Cases have involved Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) violations, hours-of-service logs, and black-box data. Recoveries reflect the severity of injuries typical of collisions with vehicles weighing 20× a passenger car.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle injuries tend toward severity: road rash, orthopedic trauma, and TBI. Arizona’s helmet statute (A.R.S. § 28-964) applies only to riders under 18, and helmet status is not admissible as comparative fault in most circumstances. Recoveries factor in long recovery timelines and permanent impairments.

Slip, Trip & Fall / Premises Liability

Premises cases turn on notice — did the property owner know or should they have known of the hazard? Documentation of the fall, the hazard, and prompt medical treatment is decisive. Recoveries have ranged across all severity levels.

Wrongful Death

Arizona wrongful death claims are governed by A.R.S. § 12-611 et seq. Recoverable damages include loss of love, affection, companionship, care, and pecuniary losses. Every case involves a sensitive, individualized valuation.

Dog Bites & Animal Attacks

Arizona is a strict-liability state for dog bites under A.R.S. § 11-1025. Liability is established even without prior knowledge of the dog’s aggression. Recoveries reflect medical treatment, scarring, psychological trauma, and lost wages.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can I recover for my case?
Every case is different. Recovery depends on the severity of injuries, liability, available insurance coverage, medical documentation, and whether the defendant is a private party, commercial entity, or government. We give you a realistic range after reviewing the facts during a free evaluation.
Do you publish specific client settlements?
Only with client consent. Many of our clients prefer confidentiality, and Arizona ER 7.1 prohibits advertising that creates unjustified expectations. We are happy to discuss comparable-category outcomes in a consultation.
Does a bigger recovery total mean I’ll get a bigger settlement?
No. Total firm recoveries reflect decades of work across hundreds of cases. Your case will be valued on its own facts. A firm’s track record tells you the team is experienced, not that any particular case is worth more.
What percentage of your cases settle vs. go to trial?
Like most PI firms, the majority of our cases settle — often during pre-litigation demand negotiations or post-suit mediation. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial, which strengthens settlement leverage.
How long does it take to get a recovery?
Most cases resolve in 6–18 months. Cases with complex injuries, multiple defendants, or government entities can take longer. Severe-injury cases should not settle before Maximum Medical Improvement (MMI).
Past Results Disclaimer. Past results do not guarantee, warrant, or predict future outcomes. Every case is different. The figures referenced on this page reflect aggregate recoveries obtained across multiple cases over time and do not represent the value of any individual claim. Case outcomes depend on many factors including liability, the severity of injuries, available insurance coverage, and Arizona law (including the pure comparative fault rule under A.R.S. § 12-2505). Reference to any specific category of case is not a guarantee or prediction of a similar result in your case.
