Personal Injury
Arizona Personal Injury Lawyers
Trial-Tested Experience with Serious, Complex Injury Cases
Sandweg & Ager’s attorneys built their reputation litigating complex medical malpractice cases, the kind that demand a deep command of medical records, causation, and expert testimony. That same depth of preparation carries into every serious personal injury case we handle, whether it involves a car crash or a construction site.
A serious injury doesn’t just hurt. It disrupts everything. Medical bills pile up, income stops, and families are left facing decisions about the future while trying to heal. We represent people throughout Arizona who have been seriously injured because of another person’s or company’s negligence, and we work to recover full and fair compensation for what they’ve lost.

We Handle Disputes with Insurance Companies
Insurance companies begin protecting their own interests as soon as a serious claim is reported. They may dispute fault, question the extent of an injury, challenge medical treatment, minimize future losses, or argue over the amount and type of insurance coverage available.
Serious personal injury cases often require a detailed understanding of both the medical evidence and the insurance policies involved. Sandweg & Ager approaches these claims with the same careful preparation used in complex medical malpractice litigation: reviewing medical records, working with qualified experts, identifying all available coverage, and building a case designed to withstand close scrutiny.
Here is an article about the duties insurance companies owe to their insureds that we wrote for Arizona Attorney, the magazine of the State Bar of Arizona.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered a personal injury claim in Arizona?
A personal injury claim arises when someone is seriously hurt because another person, business, or organization acted negligently or wrongfully. Common examples include car accidents, construction accidents, unsafe property conditions, dog bites, and other injuries caused by negligent or wrongful conduct.
What compensation may be available?
Compensation can include medical expenses, lost income, future care costs, disability, and pain and suffering, though the specific damages available depend on the facts of each case.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Arizona?
Arizona generally allows two years after a personal injury claim accrues, but shorter deadlines and special notice requirements may apply in claims involving government entities or public employees. An attorney should confirm the exact deadline as early as possible.
Can I recover compensation if I was partly at fault?
Possibly. Arizona follows a comparative negligence system, which means an injured person may still be able to recover compensation even if they were partly responsible for what happened. Any recovery may be reduced according to the percentage of fault assigned to that person.
How long does a personal injury case take?
The length of a personal injury case depends on factors such as the seriousness of the injuries, the time needed for medical evaluation, the number of parties involved, insurance coverage issues, and whether the case can be resolved without trial. A careful evaluation is necessary before a realistic timeline can be provided.
Does a consultation cost anything?
No. Initial consultations with Sandweg & Ager are free and confidential.
