- One Person Killed, Two Injured in Mesa Car Accident | Legal News | News Ticker
There are many different driving environments and scenarios that can lead to danger, despite the fact that many people never give them a second thought. One such scenario involves using the off-ramps attached to highways. If any mistake is made during this high-speed situation, disaster can immediately result. Tragically, that seems to be what occurred when one person was killed and two others were injured in a Mesa car accident that occurred on Saturday night. Police are continuing their investigation.
According to the authorities, this fatal Mesa car accident occurred at 10:30 p.m. on Saturday night on westbound U.S. Highway 60. 21-year-old Meagan Heiden of Florence was driving her Toyota pickup truck and she attempted to exit at Alma School Road. As she did so, she collided with a vehicle being driven by Lisa Hurston, 29, of Mesa. The collision sent the van being driven by Ms. Hurston into a concrete barrier, and she was injured in the crash. In addition, her passenger, 29-year-old John Hurston, was killed in the crash. Ms. Heiden was also injured in the crash.

Arizona Wrongful Death Lawyers
If the available facts are accurate, it seems possible that the family members of the man who was killed could file an Arizona wrongful death lawsuit against the driver who could be at fault. If such a lawsuit was filed and was successful, it could lead to an award of damages that compensates the family for their medical, funeral and burial costs as well as their lost income and their loss of companionship.

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.

I want to thank attorneys Tim and Robert and the paralegal Bethany for all they had done on my case. They were all empathetic, knowledgeable and professional. All my questions were answered, emails returned in a timely matter, and promises fulfilled. I recommend Phillips Law Group if you need help with your injury case.

Two family members were in a bad wreck a couple of years ago, and as a result called Phillips Law to represent them. Montana Thompson was the attorney assigned to the case with the help of Nemo Farr as legal assistant. Mr. Thompson litigated a very generous settlement for both my stepdaughter and her son. Because my grandson is a minor, I decided to act as conservator for him to ensure the settlement was safe and secure. Montana helped with that process, but it was Nemo who went way above and beyond the call in finding a financial institution to use for the restricted account. There were some glitches in that process but Nemo helped navigate them with a calm expertise which belies his age. I would consider them both great representatives of the level of commitment to their clients and assets to their firm.

I was recently served court documents that I was being sued from an accident that happened years ago. For someone who has never been through something like this and not familiar with the court lingo or where to even begin, it was very frustrating and stressful. I reached out to a family member who knew Tracy Laskos and the great reputation of Phillips Law Group and within the hours of the initial call for help, I had a direct number to Lead Attorney Nassar. Nassar heard my case and almost instantly put me at ease by explaining the process and how easy it was to handle. Nassar spoke to me like he was a friend, not like I was a client. I am so grateful to Tracy, Nasar and of course my cousin Stephanie for helping out and giving me the direction that I needed to get through this situation. I plan on referring my friends, family and patients that are in need of a personal injury Attorney to Phillips Law Group. Thank you!!
