Top best Personal Injury Lawyers in Phoenix | 931 available

I am passionate about vindicating people's rights, whether in closely-held business disputes (aka, "business divorces"), aviation, personal injury/wrongful death, or intellectual property litigation (including patents).  I am down to earth, yet I understand and can communicate about even highly-technical subjects.  I practice with utmost integrity and respect for my clients.  I'm not here to make my career off of your case -- I am here to solve your problem as efficiently as possible with your full input.  I would welcome the opportunity to discuss your case with you.. Personally, I enjoy SCUBA diving, equestrian activities, camping, quad riding, and aviation.  I have a wife and two young sons who are the light of my life.

I am passionate about helping clients achieve their goals.. I have over 20 years of experience in law and business. My practice focuses on two areas: (1) helping injured people seek justice, and (2) business/real estate transactions. I have personal experience in both areas -- my first plaintiffs' personal injury case was my own, and I've owned several businesses.  Having a broad range of experiences and skills helps me better understand client needs, as well as to find and obtain creative, common sense, pragmatic and successful solutions to client problems.. I see myself as a holistic lawyer. What I mean is that your legal situation is usually only one part of the puzzle, and there can be other things you have to consider. When looking for the best outcome, you can’t pretend the other pieces of the puzzle don’t exist.. In my "free time", I enjoy yoga, meditation, bicycling, tennis, scuba diving, travel and playing the piano.

I am an experienced trial lawyer in Phoenix, Arizona and have been associated with the law firm of Sanders & Parks since 1995.  My practice focuses on personal injury litigation, product liability litigation, commercial disputes, and insurance coverage and bad faith litigation.  My firm represents a wide variety of clients, including large companies, small businesses, and individuals.  I am proud to serve as a tenacious and honest advocate on behalf of my clients and I always endeavor to do so in the most efficient manner possible.. When I'm away from the office, my passion is traveling and exploring the world. I love learning about different cultures, getting to know the people in different countries, and enjoying the local cuisine.  In addition to traveling (and when the Arizona weather allows), I spend most of my time outdoors hiking, mountain biking, and practicing hot yoga.

I am a Trial Lawyer (Jury Trials) licensed in my home state, Arizona, who represents working class people and their families against insurance companies and large corporations when they are injured or wronged.. My practice focuses on fighting for those catastrophically injured or the families of those fatally injured.. Over my career, I have successfully taken on some of the biggest corporations and insurance companies in the world via several jury trials resulting in verdicts and settlements amounting to millions of dollars recovered for my clients and changes in corporate behavior. This is a direct result of my tireless work ethic, dedication to community safety, and commitment to going the distance for my clients.

I am a native of Phoenix, Arizona. I have been in private practice since 1997. I currently limit my practice to helping clients in personal injury and wrongul death cases. When not practicing law, I enjoy traveling, cooking, snow skiing, hiking and spending time with family.

I am a Member of Perry Childers Hanlon & Hudson, PLC, praciting in the area of civil litigation.  I hold the highest possible rating in both legal ability and eithical standards (AV® Preeminent)  from Martindale-Hubbell®.  I am member of Arizona and Michigan State Bars and authorized to practice in state and federal courts in these jurisdictions.

I am a lawyer with 27 years of experience, representing individuals, companies, municipalities and insurance carriers.  Most of my work at this time is on behalf of individuals, however, I am also acting as a mediator in an effort to bring resolution to cases.  Having extensive experience on behalf of both claimants and defendants gives me a perspective that many lawyers may lack; having tried many cases before juries gives me experience to know what  jury can do.

I am a lawyer who represents victims of personal injuries with a focus on mass torts.  My firm's principal office is in Phoenix, AZ and I represent clients throughout the United States. I am licensed in Arizona.. We offer representation on a contingent fee basis and we advance the out of pocket expenses of that litigation.  Those advanced expenses come out of the client's share of the recovery upon collection or settlement.. Our clients do not owe anything unless there is a settlement or a collection of a judgment.

I am a Criminal Law Specialist certified by the State Bar of Arizona and I have been practicing law for 30 years.  I teach other attorneys how to challenge illegal searches. While some attorneys like to advertise that they are "former prosecutors," I am proud to say that I have NEVER been a prosecutor! Prosecutors usually have the evidence on their side so being a defense attorney takes much more ingenuity, preparation and skill.. I have represented numerous clients over the years and get many referrals from satisfied clients.  I handle all my own cases.  If you don't need me, I will tell you so.  I will be honest with you throughout my representation as to how your case is looking.. I have listed a few select cases in the "Cases" section to show you a sample of the type of work that I have done for clients. If you would like to speak with me about a criminal matter, I would be happy to meet with you at my office or speak over the phone. Thank you.. Kristen Curry

I am a board certified specialist in personal injury and wrongful death litigation and a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers.

I am a "strategic interpretive replicator."  Basically, I see or experience success in one context and I do my best to replicate it in another. The law presents a fascinating opportunity to apply that ability by taking a mixture of facts, personalities, case law, statutes, experience, and extracting the useful parts of each to apply to my next case.I enjoy helping people who have been fired or discriminated against for the wrong reasons - especially when it's companies or individuals who should know better. As a former small business owner, I also enjoys helping small and mid-size businesses avoid employment-related disputes by either taking steps NOW to prevent that risk or defending a lawsuit when it happens.  I absolutely love being part of the appellate process to either defend a great result or change a bad one.I am married with two daughters (8 & 5). My interests include reading, writing, piano (30+ years), shooting (not hunting), aviation, foreign travel, and saving for the weddings.

Graduated from Scottsdale Coronado High School , May 1966.. Admitted to Arizona State University September, 1966.  Political Science Major-pre law.  Obtained Bachelor of Arts Degree from Arizona State University in May, 1970.. June, 1970 Enlisted in Arizona Air National Guard, 161st Air Refuling Group, materials facilities specialist.. August 1970 Admitted to Arizona State University College of Law (now called Sandra Day O'Connor School of Law). Clerkship with Debus, Busy and Greene-1972. Internship with Arizona Attorney General's Office, Criminal Appeals Division. Internship with Hon. Paul LaPrade, Maricopa County Superior court Judge. 1973. Received Juris Doctorate Degree from ASU in September, 1973. Admitted to practice of law September, 1973. Assistant Phoenix City Prosecutor 1973-1977. Deputy Maricopa County Attorney 1977-81. Private practice 1981-present.. About to start my 43rd year of practicing law.  Early in my career I was a government prosecutor, going into court every day on behalf of the State of Arizona against various types of misdemeamor defendants.  After a few years there, I was hired by the Maricopa County Attnorney's office to prosecute felony cases.  I did that for about three years before entering private practice.  The time I spent as a prosecutor was invaluable.  I learned all about judges, juries, and having to prove your case beyond a reasonable doubt.  I was very fortunate in those days to work with some of the best trial lawyers and judges in Arizona.  I was lead counsel in about 100 or so jury trials.  I even got to appear in front of Hon. Sandra Day O'Connor when she was a trial judge in Maricopa County Superior Court.  You could tell even then that she was destined for higher calling.  For those of us who were fortunate enough to have known her at that level, it was no surprise that she was selected by Pres. Ronald Reagan to be the first woman on the US Supreme Court.. When I first entered private practice, I handled mostly Domestic Relations cases-divorce, child custody, etc.  I also represented criminal defendants, misdemeanor, felony, DUI, etc.  In addition I had my first experiences representing people who had been injured, or families who lost a loved one, due to the negligence of others.(commonly referred to as Personal Injury and Wrongful Death). Because I had been involved in so many prosecutions that focused on the harm done to the victim(s) of crime, it was an easy transition to representing the people and families who had been harmed by the negligence of others.  So it seems like my entire career, in one form or another, I have tried to help balance the scales of justice on behalf of people harmed by a wrongdoer.  In the past 20 years I have focused on personal injury, wrongful death and criminal defense, including many DUI's and traffic-related cases.  I believe that being on both sides of these cases, as attorney for the victim  and the accused, is of mutual benefit to my clients.  Knowing how the "other side" works helps me on either side.. Although I worked initially in private practice with a group of four  other lawyers, since 1983 I have been a sole practicioner, incorporating officially into William S. Chick, PC in 1984.  I have maintained that business profile ever since.. I have practiced all over the State of Arizona, but primariliy in Maricopa County. As far as my personal approach to the practice of law, I always try to remember the sage advice of my grandfather who told me: "if you take care of your flock, your flock will  take care of you".  I try to treat every case, big or small, in a way that will exempify the best in the legal profession.  I do my best to give each and every client a dedicated, diligent, and thoroughly professional representation.  I have been blessed with excellent paralegals and support staff over the years and look forward to many more opportunites to be of service to my clients.  .
