Compensation in an Arizona Accident Claim
When you file your insurance claim, you may know you can request medical costs and lost wages for the time you’re away from work recovering from your injuries. Most accident victims stop there. Insurance companies are happy to give you the minimum coverage possible and don’t tell victims they’re entitled to more than the bare cost of the accident.
Having an attorney means an injured person has someone fighting for their best interests throughout the claims process. Your attorney will make sure your claim asks for:
Economic Damages
These losses are all expenses and costs that can be calculated through bills and invoices. Economic damages, sometimes called “special damages,” include:
- Medical bills and expenses
- Lost wages and loss of income
- Rehabilitation, medical equipment, and out-of-pocket costs
- Future medical care, in-home care, and future lost wages
Non-Economic Damages
Also known as “general damages,” these losses are less tangible than economic damages but affect your life in more personal ways. Non-economic damages include:
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Loss of consortium/loss of companionship
- Loss of mobility
Punitive Damages
Although you cannot request punitive damages on an insurance claim, your attorney can ask for them in court. An attorney must prove several factors before a judge will award punitive damages. Your attorney must show that the other driver acted with gross negligence, “an evil heart,” or malice when causing the accident.
Making Your Accident Claim Stick
Just suffering serious injuries in a car accident is not enough to win an accident lawsuit. Since Arizona is an “at-fault” state, you must also prove liability. In our state, the driver responsible for the accident pays for the other driver’s injuries and property damage. After the accident, you must show that the other driver’s actions caused you harm.
You must gather evidence at the scene to prove liability in a car accident case. If you cannot get information at the time, the Wyatt Injury Law legal team will help you collect it later. Some things you must do no matter what include:
- Seek medical attention. Insurers may view the lack of a medical exam as proof that you weren’t really hurt.
- Get the other driver’s contact information and insurance info
- Report the accident to Arizona law enforcement. You have ten days to report the accident to the police or the DMV, and your insurance company may have its deadline for reporting.
- Take photos of your car and the other vehicle at the scene. If possible, take pictures of the road and any obstructions or debris.
- Get witness contact information. Even first names can help law enforcement find them later.
Personal injury claims are often denied or delayed simply because claimants forget essential details or documents. We’ll help you get all the data you need to file your claim on time.
Statute of Limitations
Personal injury law limits the amount of time you have to file an accident lawsuit. In Arizona, you have two years from the date of the accident to file legal action. If your claim is against government entities, you only have six months. The Tolleson personal injury attorneys will review your case carefully to make sure you don’t miss this deadline. If you miss the statute of limitations, you could be barred from recovering damages. Contact us immediately if you think you’re nearing the deadline.
