A personal injury claim can stem from a variety of causes. Some of the most common types of accident claims our Mesa attorneys handle include:
As a personal injury law firm, Phillips Law Group frequently represents the victims of car and truck accidents. We have decades of experience standing up to the big insurance companies and fighting for your rights to damages.
Motorcycle crashes can result in devastating injuries, and lingering prejudice against bikers means that you may not receive the compensation you deserve.

Very serious injuries can result when a cyclist or pedestrian gets hit by a car. The attorneys at Phillips Law Group will leverage the firm’s resources and experience to help ensure a favorable outcome to your case.
If you were injured in a fall on someone else’s property caused by a hazardous condition, we can hold the owners or lessees liable for your injuries.
Every year, thousands of people suffer serious injury and death due to defective drugs and medical equipment. Phillips Law Group takes on the big pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers that put profits over safety and fights for you to receive fair compensation for the harm you suffered.
Our attorneys can obtain compensation for losses you or your child suffered due to defective products ranging from baby powder to garden pesticides to kitchen appliances, and anything in between. When a company puts a defective product on the market and injures you, we hold them accountable.
Dog bites can cause physical and emotional scars that last a lifetime. Dog owners are strictly liable for harm their animal causes except in very limited circumstances. Work with us to ensure a dog owner takes responsibility for their animal’s conduct.
Most medical professionals are dedicated to their patients’ well-being, but even the best may make mistakes with devastating consequences. Successfully pursuing a medical malpractice case requires specialized knowledge and skill, but the attorneys at Phillips Law Group have the expertise to bring your case to a successful conclusion.
When you have lost a loved one to a preventable accident or intentional act of violence, a wrongful death lawsuit may help you channel your grief into accountability. Your family and the deceased person’s estate may be entitled to damages that make up for the financial loss of your loved one and the emotional anguish you experienced.
Survivors of sexual abuse, particularly when it occurs in childhood, may experience decades of physical and emotional trauma arising out of the experience. The compassionate attorneys at Phillips Law Group represent sexual abuse survivors nationwide in claims against schools, churches, and other institutions that enabled the exploitation of children.
Our team is experienced in a broad range of practice areas. If you do not see your type of accident on the list, we encourage you to call and speak with a dedicated legal advocate.
Most drivers get into a crash at some point, and thankfully, most accidents are minor. However, if you are involved in an accident that causes an injury, keep certain guidelines in mind.
Contact law enforcement immediately. A police report is critical evidence if you need to bring a legal claim. Emergency services can evaluate the occupants of all the vehicles and arrange for transport to a hospital when necessary. If you are not brought to the hospital by ambulance, get medical attention as quickly as possible. A medical record generated soon after the accident is essential to prove a connection between the crash and your injuries.
Do not take responsibility for the crash, speculate about how it happened, or apologize to other involved parties, and stay off social media. Talk to a car accident attorney at Phillips Law Group’s Mesa office before you speak to an insurance company. We can guide you throughout the claims process and build a strong case for compensation.
Accident scenes can be very chaotic, which can be magnified if there are injuries involved. Often, injury victims are also unable to gather important information following the incident that can be used to help build an argument for their compensation claim.
Some of that information may include:
It’s also important to try and maintain any medical appointments that you may have. By having a record of medical visits to receive treatment for your injury, it helps to provide that your claim for damages is valid.
Should you decide to pursue a personal injury lawsuit in Mesa and hire our firm, we will work to obtain all of the information and documentation on your behalf, as we work to build a robust argument for your damages case.
Establishing negligence and then proving that negligence are very important components when building a personal injury damages case. Commonly, there are four elements that need to be determined:
Duty of Care is an obligation that the defendant has to act in a reasonably responsible manner, to ensure that themselves and others are not at risk of receiving an injury due to their actions.
A breach of duty is when the defendant failed to provide reasonable care as detailed in their “Duty of Care”. An example of this may be a motorist that is texting while driving, and that person runs into another motorist.
Causation is the connection between the actions of the plaintiff and that those actions were the direct cause of the injury to the victim. It’s important to note that the at-fault party may not be solely responsible for the accident however, it must be established that the actions of that person caused the plaintiff to sustain an injury.
It must be proven that there are direct, financial costs associated with the injuries that you received in the incident. Medical records and payment receipts for treatment can help to demonstrate this.
At Phillips Law Group, our Mesa attorneys have many years of experience handling personal injury cases which includes reviewing all of the details that are eligible in your potential lawsuit and how we may be of assistance with your potential lawsuit.
When medical bills and other expenses start piling up and there becomes an issue of being able to pay those bills, some personal injury victims may begin to think about the value of their injury.
Should our personal injury lawyers in Mesa determine that you have sufficient grounds to file a lawsuit, there are a range of areas that you may be able to recover compensation for:
In some instances, the plaintiff may also be eligible to receive compensation for non-economic damages, that may include:
However, it’s important to note that each case is different, with different factors and circumstances surrounding each incident. Consequently, the exact value of your case can be difficult to determine without knowing the specifics involved.
We understand the pressure that victims and their families can face after an accident and we can help to find the answers that you may be looking for.
In the state of Arizona, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of the incident. However, in certain cases that deadline may be brought forward or extended.
An example of an extension may be under “The Discovery Rule”. This may be used in the event that the injury victim was not aware of their injury at the time of the incident.
If you are unsure about your claim, we encourage you to contact a lawyer at Phillips Law Group today to determine firstly, if we believe that you have a case and if so, when the statute of limitations ends for your potential lawsuit.
Personal injury cases that are handled by an attorney commonly result in higher amounts of compensation compared to those that are not handled by an attorney.
Shortly after someone has been injured in an accident, insurance companies will often become involved in proceedings. Insurance companies aim to settle claims as quickly as possible for the lowest financial amount possible. They may also ask victims to provide statements or sign documentation which may be used against the victim if they decide to pursue a damages claim. A reputable lawyer will be able to field those inquiries on your behalf and ensure that your best interests are being protected while you are recovering.
A personal injury lawyer in Mesa can also help to assemble the evidence needed to help build a strong argument for your damages claim. From obtaining the police report, to medical records and other documentation, we have an entire team that support our lawyers as they build your case.
What Should I Do After a Car Accident?
If you are able, seek medical attention right away and report the accident to law enforcement. Document the scene if possible and avoid discussing fault before speaking with a car accident attorney.
What if I am Partially at Fault for my Injuries?
Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence rule, meaning you may still recover compensation even if you were mostly at fault. Your recovery would simply be reduced by your percentage of responsibility.
How Long Does a Personal Injury Claim Take?
The timeline varies depending on the severity of injuries, the complexity of the case, and whether a settlement is reached. Some claims resolve in months, while others may take longer if litigation is necessary.
The entire team at Phillips Law Group are dedicated to protecting the rights of our clients. We have a full team of trial lawyers, support staff, investigators and access to leading, industry experts to help build a robust argument for your damages claim.
