What proves a Flagstaff bus accident claim
- Photos before repairs — vehicles, the scene, skid marks, and visible injuries, taken before anything is fixed or healed.
- Medical records from day one — the first visit ties the injury to the incident; gaps in treatment become the insurer's argument.
- Witness names and numbers — collected at the scene, because witnesses scatter quickly.
- Camera footage — dashcams, doorbells, and business cameras near the scene often recorded it, and most systems overwrite within days or weeks.
- Official reports — the report number is the key that opens the record later.
- A simple log — symptoms, missed work, and expenses, kept as they happen.
None of this requires deciding anything about lawyers — it just preserves the claim while the evidence still exists.
How a participating law firm may review your situation
After you submit a free case review, your request is delivered to a participating Arizona law firm — participating firms are paid advertisers, and each firm independently determines whether it can assist you. The firm may contact you to learn more and explain how Arizona claims generally work. There is no cost to request a review, and submitting the form does not create an attorney-client relationship.
What information to prepare

- Any report or exchange of information, if you have it
- Photos of the scene, vehicles or equipment, and any injuries
- Names and contact info for any witnesses
- Records of medical treatment you have received
- Insurance or employer information, as applicable
Why quick action matters in Arizona
Arizona generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, but much shorter deadlines apply to claims involving a public entity — a formal notice of claim is generally required within 180 days. Evidence also fades quickly. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
