Your Legal Rights After an Accident in Mesa, AZ
Mesa accident claims are governed by Arizona law. Verified Arizona law, with sources. General information — not legal advice for your specific case.
You have 2 years to file [source]
Arizona's statute of limitations gives you 2 years from the date of the crash to file a personal-injury lawsuit. Miss it and you usually lose the right to recover — one of the most important reasons to talk to a lawyer early.
Fault & your right to recover [source]
Arizona follows pure comparative negligence — you can still recover compensation even if you were partly at fault. Your award is simply reduced by your percentage of blame. Arizona is an at-fault state: the driver who caused the crash — and their insurer — is responsible for your medical bills, lost wages, and other damages.
Minimum insurance coverage [source]
Arizona's minimum liability coverage is just $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident for bodily injury and $15,000 for property damage — often far less than a serious injury costs, which is why uninsured/underinsured-motorist coverage matters.
Limits on compensation [source]
Arizona does not cap the compensation you can recover in a general personal-injury claim — your award is based on your actual losses.
