Experienced Car Accident Attorneys in Scottsdale, AZ

None of us are ever prepared for a car accident. Yet a catastrophic accident can happen out of nowhere, no matter how careful we are. In 2019 alone, the Arizona Department of Transportation reported 129,750 car accidents, leading to 36,926 injuries and 911 fatalities. Unfortunately, as an experienced Scottsdale car accident lawyer, we see all too often the incredible toll that these accidents take on injured victims and their families.

At The Skiver Law Firm, we have dedicated our careers to injured parties, helping them get the compensation they deserve after a car accident. If you have been injured in a car accident, you should get the advice of a legal expert to understand your legal rights and what options you have after an accident. We are here to help.

Get Advice Before You Accept an Insurance Settlement

The insurance industry is a for-profit industry and settlements eat into their profit margin. Moreover, a quick settlement can never be adequate considering that you don’t know the full extent of your medical costs and expenses, your lost income, or even understand if there may be long-term effects from your injuries.

Insurance adjusters know that injured parties are often just glad to get a check, not understanding how much they are legally entitled to. But a quick settlement is never to your advantage and may run out well before all your bills and medical issues get resolved.

Negligence and Liability

One of the most important things a Scottsdale car accident attorney can do for you is to prove negligence on the part of the other party which establishes liability. In the State of Arizona, the negligent party and/or their insurance will be responsible for your costs. Because we are a comparative negligence state, even if you are partially at fault, the other party will be responsible for the percentage of costs that they were liable for.

When you have been injured in a car accident caused by another party, you may be legally entitled to compensation for:

  • Your medical expenses which can include emergency services, hospital stays, medicines, diagnostics, physical therapy, occupational therapy, medical devices and equipment, specialized nursing care, and other expenses that may be associated with your injuries.
  • Lost wages due to the time you were unable to work because of your injuries
  • Property damages to your car and other personal property
  • Future medical care that may be needed due to your injury or disability
  • Future loss of earning capacity if you are unable to return to your line of work
  • Pain and suffering, loss of consortium, or other non-economic damages
  • Wrongful death if you have lost a loved one due to the negligence of another

If you have been injured due to the negligence of another, let our talented team of Scottsdale car accident lawyers help you get the full compensation you deserve. Contact The Skiver Law Firm for a no-cost consultation to discuss your injury claim and your legal options. You never pay legal fees until we recover compensation on your behalf.
