But, if you are naming any public entities as defendants in your lawsuit, weāll need to file a notice of claim on your behalf within 180 days of the date upon which your loved one sustained injuries, which is not necessarily the same date upon which they died. If this period of time has already passed, connect with the Saavedra Law Firm, PLC team today to see if an exception applies in your case.

As Arizona doesnāt cap economic or non-economic damages in wrongful death cases, you can potentially recover all of your financial losses related to your loved oneās death. For example, you may be awarded compensation for pain and suffering, burial costs, loss of income, and a host of other financial burdens stemming from your situation.
