Phoenix Car Accident Lawyers

If you or a loved one has been involved in a car accident as a result of a negligent driver, it is imperative to get a reputable attorney on your team as soon as possible.

Auto accidents can wreak havoc on your life, particularly when you or another person suffers catastrophic injuries or dies as a result of the accident. You can be the victim of an auto accident as a driver, passenger, or pedestrian.

If you’ve been in a car accident in the Phoenix area and want justice and the compensation you deserve, contact injury attorney Christy Thompson.  Thompson Law Firm helps clients throughout Greater Phoenix, including in Chandler (where our office is located), Scottsdale, Mesa, Gilbert, Glendale, Peoria, Tempe, and other nearby communities.  Perhaps the best reason to work with us is our long track record of favorable results for our clients, which you can also get a sense if you read their reviews of us.

You can contact us today for a free consultation on your auto accident and injury, or read on to find out more about the post-accident legal situation.

Why Choose Thompson Law Firm over other Phoenix Auto Accident Injury Firms?

1. Our focus on major injuries and other ugly situations nobody wants to think about until they happen. Any injury can affect your quality of life, and many smaller injuries call for good legal representation, but we are not the law firm one works with for a banana peel slip-and-fall case.

2. Our extra experience. Every attorney says he or she has experience, so the question is: how much? Over 15+ years we’ve represented 893 clients (and counting) – all of them in the Phoenix area. You can read about some of their case results and compensation.

3. The size of your legal Dream Team. Ours is not a firm where you will bounce between attorneys you never get to know and who don’t take the time to know you or your case. You’ll work either with Christy Thompson or Ariana Byrd, which means there is a 100% chance you’ll like your attorney.

What to Know Following a Car Accident

The Association for Safe International Road Travel states that nearly 1.25 million people die in auto accidents each year, which averages to 3,287 deaths daily. And that doesn’t account for the millions of injuries incurred, which range from minor to life changing.

The moments that follow a car accident can be some of the most nerve-wracking and scariest of your life. There are a few things you need to do immediately to ensure the most positive outcome possible:

• If anyone is injured, immediately dial 911 and tell them what has occurred.
• Let police know if you suspect that the driver is impaired so they can take the appropriate steps.
• File a report with the police officer who arrives. Be sure to note the officer’s name and badge number.
• Obtain information from the other driver, including name, address, phone number, and insurance agency.
• Take pictures of the accident from a variety of perspectives.
• Seek names and contact information of witnesses. If you can video their statements, that will be helpful.
• Contact a personal injury attorney. Even if you aren’t sure if you will need their assistance, it is best to have them involved as soon as possible following an accident.
