Common Types of Car Accidents
Rafi Law Group has the resources and experience to handle any type of car accident claim. No matter the details that surround the crash, you know that you can take your case to our firm for reliable and compassionate legal counsel.
We can handle car accident cases that involve:
- Head-on collisions: A head-on collision has the potential to cause life-threatening injuries in an instant because the velocities of both vehicles are combined into one significant force of impact.
- Rear-end collisions: A rear-end collision at even a low speed can cause a whiplash injury, which is a serious soft tissue injury of the neck.
- Side-impact collisions: Side-impacts or T-bones are highly dangerous car accidents because most vehicles have reduced safety systems on the sides.
- Rollover accidents: Rollover accidents tend to happen to vehicles with a high center of gravity, like SUVs that can flip themselves when turning or flip when hit from the side.
- Multi-vehicle accidents: If your car accident involved multiple drivers, then we can put the pieces together to figure out liability.
- Single-car accidents: You can bring a single-car accident claim to us, such as if you were in a crash caused by unsafe road conditions or a vehicle defect.

What to Do & Not Do After an Accident
The steps that you take after a car accident are important. So are the steps you decide not to take. In either situation, the action or inaction can significantly influence the direction and outcome of the car accident claim that you file later.
What you should do after a car accident:
- Call 911 if anyone is seriously injured.
- Take photographs of the scene.
- Collect contact information from all parties.
- Talk to eyewitnesses who stop to help.
- See a medical professional as soon as possible.
What you should not do after a car accident:
- Flee the scene, which is a serious crime.
- Admit fault or say that you are sorry.
- Ignore your aches and pains.
- Accept an insurance settlement offer without reviewing it.

Arizona Highway Speed Limit
Most highways in Arizona have a speed limit of 75 miles per hour (mph), which is 10 mph higher than most in other states. This higher speed limit can contribute to worse auto accidents and more severe injuries. When investigating a car accident claim, we can see if the driver who hit you was breaking even that high speed limit, which could increase their liability.
Arizona Comparative Negligence Law for Car Accidents
Arizona uses a pure comparative negligence rule for liability in injury claims, including car accident claims. This rule allows an injured plaintiff to bring a claim against any party that is at least 1% liable for the accident. Even if the plaintiff is 99% liable for the crash, they don’t lose the right to file a claim to pursue compensation.
