Most matters are heard in the Maricopa County Superior Court, the busiest trial court in Arizona, with justice and municipal courts taking smaller civil claims and misdemeanours. Federal cases go to the District of Arizona.
Two features of Arizona law come up constantly in this market. The state is community property, so assets acquired during a marriage are generally split equally on divorce, and it applies pure comparative fault, which keeps injury claims alive even where the claimant carries a large share of the blame. Impaired driving, by contrast, is treated harshly: extreme and super extreme categories carry mandatory jail, and the window to challenge a licence suspension is measured in days.
