Car Accident Lawyers helping injured victims
in Tucson since 1964

Many of us have experienced a minor fender-bender since we began to drive, but when a catastrophic accident resulting in serious injury or death takes us by surprise, we need a reliable and knowledgeable car accident lawyer to help us through the subsequent trauma.

Kevin Moore, like his father before him, believes that you have the right to compensation by the party responsible for your injuries.

As your car accident attorney, we have:

  • Free telephone, home or hospital consultation
  • Two Offices in the Tucson Area
  • No fees until we win
  • Extremely high success rate

As our client, your rights to compensation are:

  • Payment of Medical Bills
  • Loss of Income
  • Pain and Suffering

In 2019, the Arizona Department of Transportation reported 129,750 auto accidents.  Of this amount, 36,926 resulted in an injury and 911 were fatal. In the United States as a whole, the National Safety Council reports that 38,800 people were killed in auto accidents. This is one death every 13 minutes.  The majority of these auto accidents often occur due to reckless and negligent driving.

Maximize your car accident settlement

After an accident, victims can suffer physical, emotional, and financial damage. Unfortunately, sometimes insurance companies use unprofessional and fraudulent methods to ensure their clients— the responsible parties— do not have to compensate the victims for their actions.

Only the best auto accident attorney can help relieve the burden caused by such situations. This is where we come in. We are well-educated and diligent about insurance fraud, auto accident laws, and much more when it comes to recovering compensation for our clients.

To get most value from your auto accident claim, we recommend you the do the following:

  • Call the police immediately after being involved in the auto accident
  • Get the full names, phone numbers, and addresses of everyone who witnessed the auto accident
  • Take pictures of the accident scene, any damage to the vehicles, as well as your injuries
  • If you are injured, do not put off getting medical treatment, and follow the doctor’s orders
  • Document the pain you are having, as well as swelling, stress, and any injuries that are visible or cannot be seen
  • Do not give any recorded statements until you have talked to a lawyer
  • Do not sign an authorization to request medical records, or any other paperwork, before talking to a lawyer, and
  • Do not agree to, or accept, a settlement from the insurance company before talking to a lawyer

How can a Car Accident Lawyer help
with your settlement?

Hiring a Tucson auto accident attorney quickly after your accident would be beneficial to your case.  Hiring an auto accident lawyer will alleviate your stress in addressing your injuries and dealing directly with all interested parties.

Secondly, the auto accident attorney will assess your case and gather all the evidence, such as statements from witnesses and photographs of the accident. The car accident lawyer will protect your best interest by advising you and communicating with the insurance companies on your behalf.

Lastly, a auto accident attorney will get you the compensation you need and deserve for your injuries.

If you are injured in an auto accident, you may be entitled to compensation for the following:

  • Medical bills
  • Future medical care
  • Lost wages
  • Future loss of earning capacity
  • Pain
  • Mental anguish
  • Disfigurement
  • Impairment

You may have a right to make a claim for monetary compensation on your own auto insurance policy. You will be required to prove that the person who caused the accident has no insurance or not enough insurance to reimburse you for your injuries.

You should not settle a claim with the at fault driver without notifying your auto insurance company.  These claims are complicated, and it is recommended that you discuss the situation with a car accident lawyer.  These types of claims are known as uninsured or underinsured motorists (UM/UIM) claims and are made against your insurance company, not the insurance company for the other driver.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    If you have been involved in a car accident, your first instinct may be to contact your insurance company. But doing this may cause more harm than good.

    Insurance companies don’t want to pay you the money you deserve. They may use tactics that reduce the value of your claim. That’s where the counsel of a law professional comes in.

    We work to negotiate with insurance companies to get the money that’s owed to you. Consulting with a law professional is the only way to maximize your personal injury claim.

    We’re here to answer your questions on filing a car accident lawsuit.

    How Can I Maximize My Car Accident Settlement?

    There are a few ways you can maximize your settlement. Here’s how:

    Keep Records About the Accident

    This includes things like a police report, witness statements, medical bills, car repair bills, and photographs. Substantial evidence will help support your claim.

    Never Settle

    Insurance adjusters are notorious for pressuring accident victims to settle. They may try to get you to admit that the accident was your fault or convince you to take partial blame. No matter what, don’t give in to their pressure.

    Journal Your Personal Injuries

    Keeping a detailed log of your injuries will help your case if it goes to trial. This increases your credibility and backs up your claim.

    How Long Does a Car Accident Lawsuit Take?

    The length of your car accident lawsuit may vary. It may take a few months to several years. Here’s a timeline of a typical car accident lawsuit:

    •  You will file a claim and the lawsuit begins.
    • Next, you will serve a copy of the complaint to the defendant. This process usually takes a few weeks.
    • The defendant will answer the complaint. They will have one month to file an answer to your complaint
    • Each side will request evidence from the other party. This happens before the trial and can take several months to one year.
    • The trial begins and will take no longer than two days.
    •  If either party isn’t satisfied with the result from the trial, they have the option to file an appeal. Appeals can years to the length of the lawsuit.

    How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Charge?

    A lawyer will charge a “contingency fee” for personal injury cases. This means your lawyer will not get paid any fees unless you receive money in your case.

    The contingency fee amount will vary, but it typically ranges from 25 to 40 percent, but 33 percent is the average. So, if you have a 33 percent contingency fee arrangement and you receive $100,000 in your car accident case, your lawyer will recover $33,000.

    Other lawyers may charge a retainer fee at the beginning of your case and also collect a contingency fee at the end.

    How Long Do I Have to Get a Lawyer After a Car Accident in Arizona?

    You have two years after the accident to file a lawsuit. This period begins on the day of the accident. So, if you get into a car accident on September 1, 2020, you have until September 1, 2022, to file a lawsuit.

    Before you file the suit, it’s crucial to seek legal representation from a lawyer for a car accident. Without a lawyer, it will be very difficult to prove your case in court. Also, the defense attorney may try to take advantage of your limited understanding of the law.
