People who arrive on our site have often just been hurt in a crash or a fall, and many are dealing with medical bills, missed work, and an insurance adjuster at the same time. They deserve to know who wrote what they are reading and how we checked it. Founding attorney Matt Hartley reviews all of it before we publish these pages.
Hartley Law PLLC is an Arizona personal injury law firm representing people and families who have been seriously injured by the carelessness of others. Our main office is located at 200 E Van Buren St, Floor 3, in Phoenix, and we have additional offices in Tempe and Scottsdale. We represent clients throughout Arizona, including Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Mesa, Peoria, Surprise, and Tucson.
Our firm handles car accident, truck accident, Uber and Lyft accident, motorcycle accident, pedestrian accident, and slip and fall claims. Our published content covers that same range of subjects. More background on the firm is available on our about our firm page.
Content is drafted by experienced writers who work directly with our firm, and founding attorney Matt Hartley reviews it before publication. That review applies to every page and post on the site, including practice area pages, location pages, blog articles, and resource material.
Attorney review looks at several points. It confirms that legal statements match current Arizona law and that descriptions of the claims process reflect how injury cases actually move through insurance negotiations and Arizona courts. It also confirms that the page sets accurate expectations for the reader.
We brief our writers on the firm's practice areas and on the standards described below. A draft that does not meet them is returned for revision rather than published with a correction planned for later.
We do not accept guest posts, outside contributions, or material submitted by third parties. Nothing is published on our site without attorney approval.
Matt Hartley is the founding attorney of Hartley Law and is licensed to practice law in Arizona. Before founding the firm, he spent more than a decade in Big Law and was a partner at one of the largest law firms in the world, where he represented Fortune 500 corporations and teams in the NFL, MLB, and NHL in matters involving more than $1 billion.
That background shapes how our content explains the way insurance companies evaluate claims, how liability is investigated, and how a case is valued and negotiated. Matt is also the author of Navigating Personal Injury Claims in Arizona, a free guide for injured Arizonans. His full background appears on his attorney profile.
Our site carries several categories of content, each written for a different reader need:
Every category follows the same review standard regardless of length or format.
Legal information on our site is verified against primary Arizona and federal sources rather than secondary summaries. We apply the following standards to each page:
Most people reading our site have no legal training and are trying to make sense of a situation that has already disrupted their health, their income, and their family. We write for that reader.
Legal terms are defined the first time they appear, and acronyms are spelled out in full. We favor plain description over legal and insurance shorthand, and we explain what a rule means in practice rather than only reciting its text.
Our content does not promise results. No page on our site tells a reader what their case is worth or how it will end. The outcome of an injury claim depends on the evidence, the facts, the available insurance coverage, and decisions made by insurers, juries, and courts.
We also leave out pressure tactics and alarming language. A reader deciding whether to call a lawyer deserves accurate information, not urgency.
Arizona injury law and insurance rules change, and a page that was accurate two years ago may no longer be today. We review published content on a recurring schedule and revise it when a statute is amended, a filing deadline changes, or a court decision shifts how a rule is applied.
Where a page displays a published or updated date, that date reflects its most recent substantive review. When a change affects the substance of the guidance, we revise the body text rather than adding a note at the end.
We do not sell placement on our site. No company pays to appear in our content, and we do not publish sponsored posts, paid links, advertising, or affiliate material.
When we reference an outside organization or resource, it is because we believe it helps the reader. Editorial decisions are made by our firm alone.
We also keep our informational content separate from our marketing. Pages written to explain the law are not written to sell, and the sections where we describe our own work are identified as exactly that.
If something on our site is inaccurate, outdated, or unclear, we want to hear about it. Corrections can be reported by calling 312-726-9000 or by reaching us through our contact page.
We review each correction request we receive and respond to the person who raised it. When a factual error is confirmed, we correct the page and leave the corrected information in place for readers.
The material on our site is general information about Arizona law. It is not legal advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client relationship with Hartley Law PLLC.
Injury claims depend on facts that general content cannot cover. Anyone considering a claim should speak with a lawyer about their own circumstances. Our privacy and legal disclaimers page explains this in further detail.
Being clear about how we publish is part of how we work with the people who hire us. The attorney who reviews these pages is the same attorney who leads the cases we take on.
Hartley Law represents injured people throughout Arizona from our offices in Phoenix, Tempe, and Scottsdale. We offer free, confidential case reviews, and you do not pay attorney's fees unless we recover compensation for you.
