How the courts are organised
Arizona's trial court of general jurisdiction is the Superior Court, which sits in every county; justice courts and municipal courts handle smaller civil matters and misdemeanours. Appeals go to Division One or Division Two of the Court of Appeals and then the Arizona Supreme Court. Federal cases fall to the District of Arizona.
Points that shape Arizona cases
— Attorneys are licensed by the State Bar of Arizona; the member directory shows status and discipline.
— Arizona is a community property state, so assets and debts acquired during the marriage are generally divided equally.
— The state applies pure comparative fault — a claimant's share of blame reduces recovery but does not cut it off.
— Impaired driving is punished severely, with separate extreme and super extreme categories carrying mandatory jail time, and the deadline to challenge a licence suspension is measured in days.
— Family law uses the terms legal decision-making and parenting time rather than custody and visitation.
