Brandon White and his team turned a stressful property-damage + personal-injury battle into a fair, well-earned win. The insurance company dragged its feet, but Brandon never did—he kept asking, “Is that fair?” and refused to settle until the answer was yes for everyone involved, including my medical providers. His office updated me promptly, explained every option in plain language, and negotiated persistently until we reached a settlement that actually covered my losses. If you want an attorney who measures success by fairness, not a quick rollover settlement, call Brandon White.

I contacted Brandon White Law Offices after a recent incident. He was very personal and very knowledgeable. Spoke with me for at least 45 minutes for a free consultation and advised me a situation for what he felt was my best interest. I would recommend him to anyone who has questions regarding the law.

I can’t imagine going through that on my own. The endless insurance questions, medical billing, and all the work that goes into a case like this would have been overwhelming to handle. Brandon and the entire team were amazing. I can’t say enough positive things about all of them. As I write this review, I can finally close that chapter of my life and can now move on.Thanks again for the hard work of Brandon and everyone on the team.

In Tempe, the deadline to file your personal injury claim is generally 2 years from the date of injury. However, there are a few exceptions: if the injury isn’t immediately apparent, you will have 2 years from the day you discover the injury. Additionally, if the person injured is under 18, the statute of limitations doesn’t start until 2 years after they turn 18. Lastly, personal injuries involving government bodies can be more complex giving you 180 days to file a claim and 1 year after that claim to file a lawsuit. In the end, if you have experienced a personal injury, you should reach out to a personal injury lawyer to file a claim as soon as possible.
Yes! You absolutely can file a claim. However, if you are partially at fault, you will especially want to get a personal injury lawyer involved. Arizona operates under pure comparative negligence rule which means that if you are partly at fault, you can claim, but your compensation will be reduced by the amount of fault you own. For instance, if your damages add to $60,000 and you are 20% at fault, you will receive $48,000. It is important to have a lawyer on your side, though, since insurance companies are notorious for assigning more fault than deserved for a lower payout.
Evidence is crucial to build a strong personal injury claim. After the accident, gather photo and video evidence if possible as well as contact information from any witnesses. Your lawyer can help you gather any other evidence you need, including medical records, police reports, incident reports, surveillance footage, expert witness information, and more. With this information, you can build a strong case to ensure you get the compensation you deserve.
Your compensation will be determined based on what damages you can recover. Your damages include medical expenses, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. More severe cases will receive higher compensation while cases with fewer damages will receive a lower amount of compensation.
Anyone is eligible to file a personal injury lawsuit if they were injured due to a breach in a duty of care. If you were the person injured, you will be the person to file. However, if the person is under 18 years of age or is mentally incapacitated, a legal guardian or conservator can file the lawsuit. In cases where the injury caused a wrongful death, surviving spouse, children, or surviving parents or guardians can pursue the lawsuit.
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can cost varying amounts depending on the circumstances. More severe cases tend to cost more while simpler cases cost less. However, you will not have to pay out of pocket yourself as your personal injury lawyer will take a percentage of your compensation. Given that personal injury claims can total a significant amount with the help of a skilled lawyer, the costs are well worth it.
