A Note on Scope: A General Practice, Not a PI Boutique
Unlike most firms in this series, Fitzgibbons Law is a general-practice institution: business and real estate law, commercial litigation, employment law, municipal law, bankruptcy, and estate planning sit alongside personal injury. This profile treats the firm’s PI practice honestly as one department within a broader institution.
Origin: A Lawyer and a Judge
The late David A. Fitzgibbons, Jr. (1930–1995) began practicing in Casa Grande, joined by his friend, retired Pinal County Superior Court Judge Estes D. “Bud” McBride (1919–1998). His sons later joined: David III (1987) and Denis, who began at Snell & Wilmer in Phoenix before returning in 1993.
The Third Generation: A State Bar President, and a Teacher-Turned-Litigator
Denis Fitzgibbons served as President of the State Bar of Arizona, taking office June 2020. In July 2024, Ashley Fitzgibbons — David’s daughter, a Casa Grande native who taught high school English through Teach For America before attending ASU’s law school — joined the firm after beginning her career at Gallagher & Kennedy in Phoenix. She was named a Super Lawyers “Rising Star” for 2025-2026.
Practice
The firm’s attorneys handle personal injury, wrongful death, bankruptcy, employment law, estate planning, probate, civil litigation, real estate, and business law across a wide swath of Pinal County and neighboring communities. The firm also serves as local counsel for out-of-state companies including Calpine, ConAgra, and Valmont Industries.
Track Record: A Gap Worth Noting
Awesome Attorneys did not locate a published, itemized personal injury results table for Fitzgibbons Law. A firm-aggregator listing shows a 4.4-out-of-5 rating across 41 client reviews, without itemized figures.
Community
The firm lists support for the St. Anthony of Padua Catholic School Foundation and the St. Vincent De Paul Society among its charitable involvements.
The Arizona Legal Backdrop
What follows is general legal information, not legal advice.
Arizona gives most personal-injury plaintiffs two years to file suit (A.R.S. § 12-542) and follows pure comparative negligence (A.R.S. § 12-2505). Claims against a government entity require a notice of claim within 180 days (A.R.S. § 12-821.01) and suit within one year (A.R.S. § 12-821).
The Awesome Attorneys Assessment
Fitzgibbons Law’s case is institutional depth in a region this series has otherwise covered thinly: three generations of a single Casa Grande family, a former State Bar of Arizona president among them. The honest trade-offs: personal injury is one department among many, and no published injury-specific case results were located.
