While everyone is entitled to represent themselves in the court system, we highly recommend speaking to a qualified Arizona personal injury lawyer after an accident. From case evaluation to seeking compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and property damage, an Arizona personal injury lawyer can help steer your case toward full, fair compensation.

Personal injury claims are rarely straightforward. From proving liability to the insurance company and tabulating your medical costs to forecasting future medical expenses and quantifying your pain and suffering, personal injury lawsuits can be extremely complicated. If you decide to pursue a personal injury claim, speaking to an Arizona personal injury lawyer will help clarify your next steps—and chart the sometimes-long road ahead.

Working with Rasmussen Injury Law starts with a case evaluation: a process of reviewing your case, determining potential liability (who is at fault) and damages (injuries and associated costs). Our team takes this stage seriously, as we want to understand not just the case details, but how your injury has affected your life. Understanding the full, long-term effect of the accident will help us advocate for full, fair compensation.

Once you have retained us to work for you, we will be in regular contact with you about your case. You may be asked to provide medical documentation or see doctors who can properly diagnose your injuries. You may also be called to testify about your case through a deposition: an on-record, pre-trial meeting where you answer questions about the accident and your injuries. If a full, fair settlement cannot be reached, we will represent you in court.

Throughout the process, Rasmussen Injury Law is by your side. We handle all paperwork and legal back-and-forth so you can focus on your recovery. We will keep you apprised of your case status, and advise you about the best course of action if new information comes to light. When you work with the Arizona personal injury attorneys at Rasmussen Injury Law, you have a trusted advocate in your corner.

The value of your Arizona personal injury claim is determined through negotiations with the opposing party, which may include going to court to get that answer. While settlements and verdicts vary widely from claim to claim, strong cases rely on three main factors:

1. Who was at fault, 
2. What are the injuries, and
3. What those injuries are expected to cost, both in the short term and long term.

The strongest personal injury case will demonstrate straightforward liability, injuries that clearly resulted from the accident, and compelling evidence to demonstrate both economic and non-economic damages. Remember: for every personal injury case, there are attorneys whose job is to discredit your case and find gaps in your story and testimony. An experienced Arizona personal injury attorney can keep your case value intact.

To determine your case’s value, start by calling the legal professionals at Rasmussen Injury Law for a free consultation: (480) 637-5757.

A lot of cases are capable of settling without going to court and requiring a trial after thorough preparation. However, going to court is your decision. You are in charge of whether or not you accept or reject any settlement offer.

A small injury can become a big problem if it is improperly diagnosed or treated. We highly recommend that you speak with an Arizona personal injury attorney as soon as possible after you are injured. Allowing your lawyer to quickly start investigating the accident is the best chance for the proper compensation.

In Arizona, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally two (2) years from the date of the injury or accident, as specified under Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) §12-542. This applies to most personal injury cases, including car accidents, slip-and-fall incidents, and wrongful death claims. 

Some exceptions apply, however. For injuries involving minors, the statute of limitations may be extended until they turn 18. If the injury was not immediately discoverable, the statute of limitations may begin when the injury is discovered or reasonably should have been discovered. Finally, claims on dog bite injuries have a one (1)-year limit.
