What To Do After an Accident in Phoenix
As soon as it is safe, call 911 so law enforcement and medical responders can come to the scene. An officer from a local agency such as the Phoenix Police Department or the Arizona Department of Public Safety will typically create a report that documents the location, people involved, and visible damage. Seeking prompt medical care at an emergency room or urgent care also creates a clear record of your injuries, even if you believe they are minor at first.
Once your immediate medical needs are addressed, it is helpful to gather and keep any paperwork related to the crash, including medical bills, repair estimates, and letters from insurance adjusters. You may also want to write down your own account of what happened while it is still fresh in your mind, including weather, traffic conditions, and anything the other driver said. When you are ready, speaking with an injury lawyer can help you avoid common mistakes, such as giving a recorded statement too early or accepting a quick settlement that does not cover future treatment or lost income.

200+ Years Of Legal Experience
If you or a loved one was harmed through the negligence or strict liability of another, we can step in and take action. In addition to our 200+ years of collective legal experience, our attorneys:
- Are available 24/7

Our background includes time spent as prosecutors, which gives us a practical understanding of how opposing counsel may evaluate evidence, assess risk, and approach settlement in an injury case. That insight helps us prepare thoroughly, anticipate challenges, and present your claim in a way that clearly shows the impact of the accident on your life. Because we regularly appear in Maricopa County courts, we are also familiar with local procedures and expectations, which can make the legal process more efficient for you.
How a Phoenix Personal Injury Claim Works
After an initial meeting where we learn about your accident and injuries, we typically gather records, photographs, witness statements, and information from law enforcement agencies. Once we have a clear picture of your medical treatment and how the injury is affecting you, we usually present a detailed demand package to the insurance company that outlines your losses. If the insurer makes a fair offer, many claims resolve through negotiation; if not, filing a lawsuit in the appropriate Arizona court may be the next step.
Litigation in a Phoenix personal injury case can involve written discovery, depositions, motion practice, and settlement conferences set by the court. Throughout this process, we explain deadlines, prepare you for any testimony, and help you weigh the pros and cons of each decision, such as whether to accept a negotiated resolution or proceed toward trial. By combining our knowledge of Arizona law with day-to-day experience in local courtrooms, we guide you through each phase so you can stay focused on your recovery.

You Don't Pay Unless We Win!
We take the financial burden off you by never charging a fee until or unless we secure financial compensation on your behalf. After an accident or a serious injury, the last thing you need to worry about is money. By working on a contingency fee, we only get paid if you do.
Our contingency arrangement also means we can move forward with investigations, work with qualified experts when needed, and obtain records without asking you for hourly fees or large retainers. This structure can be especially important for families dealing with lost income, medical bills, and other unexpected costs after a crash in Phoenix. By aligning our payment with the outcome of your case, we show our commitment to doing the work required to present your claim fully and clearly to the insurance company or, when appropriate, in court.
Contact our Phoenix personal injury lawyer at MayesTelles PLLC today to tell us what happened to you. We provide free, no-obligation consultations to those who may have personal injury claims. We look forward to helping you.
