Glendale and Wrongful Death Accidents
Glendale, located in Maricopa County just west of Phoenix, sits at a crucial intersection of major transportation corridors including Interstate 10 and the Loop 101 freeway. This suburban community of over 250,000 residents has experienced significant growth over the past two decades, bringing increased vehicular traffic, construction activity, and commercial development. The convergence of these busy highways, combined with Glendale's role as a regional hub for shopping, entertainment, and employment, creates an environment where motor vehicle collisions, workplace accidents, and other fatal incidents occur with tragic regularity. Additionally, Glendale's proximity to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport means commercial traffic and rideshare vehicles frequently traverse local roads, elevating accident risks. When negligent drivers, unsafe business practices, or defective products result in someone's death, families deserve answers and accountability—not empty condolences.
Your Legal Rights After a Wrongful Death in Glendale
Arizona law recognizes that certain family members have the right to recover damages when a loved one's death results from someone else's negligence or intentional misconduct. Under Arizona Revised Statutes, surviving spouses, children, and parents may pursue claims for economic losses like medical expenses and lost wages, as well as non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and emotional anguish. Arizona follows a comparative fault standard, meaning that even if your loved one bore partial responsibility, you may still recover damages reduced by their percentage of fault. Importantly, you have only two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death lawsuit—a deadline that cannot be extended. Glendale residents can reach Sher Law Group's Scottsdale office easily, and our firm represents clients throughout Arizona, including all Maricopa County jurisdictions where your case may be heard.
