What Types of Personal Injury Cases Do We Handle?
A personal injury claim is a legal case you can file to recover damages caused by another party’s negligent actions or inactions. In some cases, a personal injury claim can be based on a person or entity’s intentional harm. To win in court, you must show more than the damages you suffered. You must prove the legal elements of negligence by showing the other party had a duty of care owed to the injured person, the other party breached that duty, and their actions resulted in injuries.
Some of the common personal injury cases we take include the following:

I highly recommend Runion’s Personal Injury Lawyers! My 2025 started off differently than I expected due to a car accident, but working with this firm has given me confidence that I’m in good hands. The team is professional, friendly, and truly cares about their clients. The process has been going smoothly, and I appreciate the effort they’ve put into helping me every step of the way.
Cailee D.
I got hit by a car as a pedestrian, and my life turned upside down as a consequence. I was recommended to Derick (Runion) by a friend of mine, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. The entire team were SO easy to work with and honestly became friends/therapists during that time! They got as much from the case for me as they could and I will be forever grateful.

Personal Injury Claims in Phoenix: Your Questions Answered
How Much Does A Personal Injury Lawyer Cost in Arizona?
The cost of a personal injury attorney will depend on the law firm and whether or not it works on a contingency basis. At Runion Personal Injury Lawyers, we offer a free case evaluation, no out-of-pocket costs to hire, and a Net Recovery Guarantee. This means you don’t pay for our services unless we win your case, and your legal fees will never exceed the amount you recover.
What is The Average Personal Injury Settlement in Arizona?
In Arizona, a personal injury settlement is based on the extent of a person’s injuries, medical expenses, and other damages that affect compensation. The stronger your case, the higher the damages award you can pursue.
For example, the average settlement amount for a car accident resulting in moderate injuries is approximately $20,000, with payouts ranging from $5,000 to $200,000, depending on the severity of the injuries. Overall, the average jury award for injury cases is approximately $800,000, with compensation averaging $30,000.
How Hard Is It to Win a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
To win a personal injury lawsuit, you’ll need solid evidence of fault on the other party’s behalf. You’ll also need to prove essential elements of your claim, such as the existence of a duty of care, a breach of that duty, and sustained damages.
Working with an experienced personal injury attorney can make a big difference in your chances of success. Our trusted team of personal injury lawyers in Phoenix will build a strong case on your behalf by collecting evidence of fault, negotiating with insurance companies, and filing your claim on time and with proper documentation.
How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim In Arizona?
Arizona’s personal injury statute of limitations sets a two-year deadline from the date of the injury to file an injury claim. While some exceptions exist, including if the plaintiff is a minor, the claim is being filed against a government entity, or if the injury was not discovered immediately after the accident, it’s best to consult a knowledgeable personal injury attorney as soon as possible to ensure you don’t miss important legal deadlines.
What Types Of Damages Can I Recover in a Personal Injury Case?
In a personal injury case, you can recover two forms of damages: compensatory and punitive. Compensatory damages fall into two main categories, economic and non-economic.
Economic damages are measurable financial losses you suffer after an injury, such as medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and costs associated with rehabilitation. Non-economic damages are more subjective and cover losses like pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and loss of consortium.
In cases of particularly egregious misconduct, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the defendant and deter similar behavior in the future. For example, a court may award punitive damages in a case where a trucker was drunk driving and hit another vehicle, causing the driver to endure fatal injuries.
Can a Personal Injury Lawyer Help With Medical Bills After an Accident?
A skilled personal injury attorney can play a vital role in helping you collect medical compensation following an accident. They can use their experience to collect evidence of injuries, document your financial losses, and prepare a claim that names ease. A personal injury settlement or lawsuit can cover the following types of medical expenses that result from the accident:
- Ambulance fees
- Surgeries
- Doctor’s appointments
- Travel expenses to and from the hospital
- In-home care and renovations

Runion Personal Injury Lawyers truly came through for me after my truck accident. Between my injuries, my wrecked car, and a shady trucking insurance company, I didn’t know what to do. Their team handled everything from start to finish, knew A LOT about Truck law in Phoenix, AZ and fought to get me the compensation I deserved!! I couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated and supportive group! ❤️🙏🏼
