- Construction Industry Seen as Biggest Reason for Arizona’s Economic Struggles | Legal News | News Ticker
Everyone who lives in Arizona understands that the economy has struggled as mightily as it has in generations. While individual residents of Arizona look for ways out from under mounting financial stress, others are attempting to identify why the economy has taken such a downturn in recent years. One way to look at this issue is through statistical analysis, and when doing so with the Gross Domestic Product, or GDP of Arizona, identifying the industries that have suffered the most becomes very clear.
In the last two years, the construction industry in Arizona has fallen off at historic rates. Specifically, the amount of overall revenue generated by the construction industry in Arizona fell by more than 20 percent between 2008 and 2009. This enormous drop led to a massive loss of jobs, innumerable loan defaults and the filings of countless Arizona bankruptcies. However, the construction industry was not the only one that suffered during this time period. Other industries that suffered immensely during this time period include:
- Real estate
- Retail
- Administrative services
- Waste services
- Hospitality
None of the entrants on this list should be a surprise, but when all of these industries that combine to form the foundation of Arizona’s economy suffer, so to will the state’s residents.

My Attorney Sean Davis and his paralegal Hannah Dustin worked on my case. They listened to the problems that I was having with my case and they both got right to work. First they found me a doctor that actually listened to my problems from my car accident and worked quickly to form a plan that was comfortable for me and the doctor. The doctor was the best and after a couple of procedures the pain in my neck was gone. Behind the scenes Sean and Hannah were working hard to get my case settled with the insurance company. They kept in contact with me on all aspects of my case. They settled my case much faster than I expected and for more than I was expecting. If you want two real professional legal people to work on your case, I would highly recommend Sean and Hannah to you. I cannot say enough nice things about these two. Thank you so much, Rickey Hart .

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value As someone who is familiar with the inner workings of the auto insurance industry I can whole heartedly endorse Steven J. Jones and Phillips law group as someone I would want on my side should litigation take place. They handled my case professionally, honestly, and with satisfactory results which I would not have expected without enlisting their help.
