Arizona Personal Injury Laws

My name is Mack Jones and I’m a personal injury attorney here in Phoenix, Arizona at Jones Raczkowski PC. You’ve been injured and now you’re receiving bills and typically you’re going to continue receiving bills and you’re going to receive repeated medical bills from the same provider. That is stressful, no matter who you are. There are ways that we at Jones Raczkowski can help.

First, you should process your bills as you normally would. If you have group health, process them through group health.

Second, if they will be included in any potential claim that is made on your behalf, as against the purported defendant, reclaim the face amount of the bills, not the reduced amount of the bills. Not your copay, not your deductible. The face amount of what the bill was as asserted by the provider.

Third, only attorneys practicing in premises liability generally are going to have an awareness. And particularly in premises liability there may be medical payments coverage available simply because you fell on somebody else’s property. That’s not fault-based insurance. It’s no-fault based insurance and it’s called medical payments, and it can be up to $5000 or $10000 just because you fell on somebody else’s property. But you need an attorney, typically, to find out whether that coverage exists. If that coverage does exist, we’ll get that coverage for you and we won’t charge a fee on that. Call us at Jones Raczkowski PC, 602-840-8787.

My name is Mack Jones and I’m a personal injury attorney at Jones Raczkowski PC, here in Phoenix, Arizona. Premises liability case is a case where a person is injured on the property of another, typically through a dangerous condition or dangerous instrumentality on the premises. So it is not a car accident and it’s not a medical malpractice case. It’s an injury that occurs when you fall on somebody else’s property typically.

Typically, broken sidewalk, a spill in the grocery store, falling merchandise – those are premises liability cases. In most of those types of cases, the defendant, the property owner, is going to assert that the injury is at least partially, if not completely, your fault. That’s why you need somebody who’s prepared to take the matter into litigation, and to court, because it will not resolve with a demand letter. It will have to go and be litigated.

If you have a serious personal injury, particularly if you were injured on premises, please contact my firm at (602) 840-8787, Jones Raczkowski PC.

Cyclist Personal Injury Litigation

One of the great things about being from Arizona of course, is our weather. And the weather invites people from all over the country to come in on their bicycles, and share our highways and our roads. And one of the things that Friedl Richardson is concerned about, is educating the public as to the rights of those bicyclists.

Three Foot Law

One of the laws that are so important in Arizona governing bicyclists, is the three foot law. When you have an absence of bike lanes, and you have bicycles sharing the highway with motorist, it’s important for the motorists to realize, that he has to allow three feet from the bicyclists. And the bicyclists have rights available to them through Arizona laws, through municipality laws.

That really protects them on the streets, with or without a bike lane. One of the things that we see so often on the Phoenix streets, and in Maricopa County, are bicycle collisions. That’s a vehicle to bicycle collision. And generally these collisions happen, because the vehicle is inattentive. In most situations throughout our state, the bicycle has the right of way in any type of vehicle bicycle encounter. Whatever it takes to make these highways safer, that’s our goal.

My name is Mark Raczkowski and I’m an attorney at Jones Raczkowski PC in Phoenix, Arizona. The short answer is, I don’t know if you’re going to need to go to court in regards to your personal injury claim. Some cases are relatively simple and can be settled out of court within a matter of months. Other cases that involve more serious injuries, and cases such as slip and falls or trip and falls where defendants deny that they’re even responsible for your injuries do have to go to courts. That means you need to sue those defendants and move forward in the litigation. As a result it’s important that you hire the top rated New Mexico attorneys Ron Bell, that are experienced in court, and that are willing to work hard and prosecute the case in court in order to achieve the compensation that you deserve. If you have a serious injury, contact me through my website at www.azpremiseslaw.com.

Important Questions

A court system is complex and personal injury cases demand an attorney with experience. A good personal injury attorney is familiar with the court system and how insurance companies play the game. Is your attorney willing to take your case to court? Do you want an attorney that just settles your cases or do you want an attorney that will fight for you and is not afraid to take your case to trial? Is your attorney responsive to you? Does your attorney respond to your telephone calls and emails? Does he answer your questions? Does he make you feel important and that any question you ask is important? Does your attorney respond to your concerns, fears, or the specific difficulties of your case? Is he humble, patient and caring with you? Is your attorney honest and forthright? Your attorney should explain to you exactly how he gets paid, your responsibilities and the strengths and weaknesses of your case. It is easy to talk about how great your case is, but is your attorney able to be honest with you about why your case isn’t so great? If you have any questions or would like to know more about personal injury, contact me at (602) 385-6818 or email me.

Do Not Falsify Claims

One of the things that we want to make sure happens is that there are only legitimate claims being brought and pursued through the court system. The court system is overburdened as it is. Only the legitimate cases are the ones that we take. If a case is not legitimate, there’s no room for it at our justice system.

My name is Mack Jones. I’m a personal injury attorney emphasizing premises liability here in Phoenix, Arizona. Often times people want to get a copy of the incident report that may have been prepared by the store or the location where they fell. Typically, you’re not entitled to the copy of the incident report unless you signed it. If you signed it, or you were the one that completed it, you’re entitled to a copy. But if it was completed by store personnel, or people at the gas station or wherever, you’re not entitled to a copy of it until you get into litigation. Typically, the stores and other defendants do not want to share that with you because they view it as developing proof to assist them in defending a personal injury claim that you may bring against them. Therefore, if you’ve been injured on premises and sustained a significant personal injury, please contact us in terms of developing the proof necessary to establish your claim, at Jones Raczkowski, PC, (602) 840-8787.
