One of the Few Injury Firms Actually Based in the Verde Valley

Inside the Law Office of Shiloh K. Hoggard, a former Maricopa County deputy county attorney who set up a general civil practice in Cottonwood, Arizona in 2010 and built a personal injury docket most Verde Valley residents would otherwise have to drive to Phoenix or Flagstaff to find locally.

ORIGEN

From Deputy County Attorney to Solo Verde Valley Practice

Shiloh Hoggard earned his law degree from the University of Arizona’s James E. Rogers College of Law, where he received the school’s Award for Excellence in Legal Writing and served as a managing editor of the University of Arizona Journal of International and Comparative Law. Before opening his own practice, Hoggard worked as a deputy county attorney for the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, according to his Avvo profile — courtroom experience he has said informs both the criminal and civil trial work he does today.

He founded his Cottonwood practice in 2010. Rather than moving to a larger legal market, Hoggard built a general civil practice in the Verde Valley, a region of Yavapai County that includes Cottonwood, Camp Verde, and Sedona and that, per the firm’s own marketing, has relatively few personal injury attorneys with a genuine local office rather than a satellite location run out of Phoenix or Prescott.

PRÁCTICA

A General Civil Docket, Not an Injury-Only One

The firm’s website describes personal injury as a “particular emphasis,” alongside dedicated practice pages for employment law and civil litigation. On the injury side, Hoggard’s Yelp profile lists car accidents, motorcycle accidents, dog bites, and insurance disputes as specialties. Client endorsements collected on Avvo describe Hoggard handling both civil and criminal litigation, including administrative hearings, and note that “nearly all” of his jury trials have resulted in favorable verdicts for his clients — a characterization from the firm’s own materials that Awesome Attorneys could not independently verify against court records.

Readers evaluating the firm specifically for a personal injury claim should know that Hoggard is not an injury-exclusive practitioner: his docket includes eviction and landlord-tenant matters, employment disputes, and other general civil litigation alongside accident and injury cases — a broader practice that is common for a solo attorney serving a smaller, non-metro county, but a real difference from firms whose entire caseload is personal injury.

HISTORIAL

El tablero de resultados

Hoggard’s Avvo profile lists a small number of named matters, including Doe v. Gilstrap and a medical malpractice matter styled Jane Doe v. Dr. John Doe that the profile states “settled for a favorable amount prior to any lawsuit.” The firm does not publish an itemized settlement or verdict table on its own website, and Awesome Attorneys was unable to independently verify dollar figures for any specific case.

MATTER (AS REPORTED)	OUTCOME
Jane Doe v. Dr. John Doe (medical malpractice)	Settled for an undisclosed, “favorable” amount prior to lawsuit filing (per Avvo)
Doe v. Gilstrap	Listed as a case matter; outcome and figures not published

LA VOZ DEL CLIENTE

Lo que reportan los clientes

One reviewer, describing a hit-and-run collision caused by a drunk driver while she was 33 weeks pregnant, credited Hoggard’s team with taking control of a situation involving mounting medical bills and negotiating with the other driver’s insurer. Another client, describing a car accident case, said Hoggard and his staff were “professional, caring and honest” throughout a difficult period. A third reviewer who had initially struggled to find representation — because several attorneys she contacted had conflicts from representing the insurance company she was negotiating against — said she found Hoggard to be “an excellent listener and communicator” and reported a settlement larger than she believed she could have obtained on her own. Awesome Attorneys did not locate negative or critical reviews of Hoggard in its research.

COMUNIDAD

Más allá de la sala del tribunal

Hoggard is a member of the J. Reuben Clark Law Society, a national association of lawyers, judges, and law students. His publication history includes a piece on Arizona’s Open Meeting Law and public board service, a topic connected to civic and nonprofit board governance rather than his litigation practice — suggesting an interest in local governance issues beyond his casework, though Awesome Attorneys did not find evidence of a specific nonprofit board seat or charitable role tied to Hoggard’s name.

RECONOCIMIENTOS

Posición entre colegas

Hoggard’s verifiable credentials are primarily academic: the University of Arizona’s Award for Excellence in Legal Writing and his editorial role on the University of Arizona Journal of International and Comparative Law. Awesome Attorneys did not find a Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, or Martindale-Hubbell peer rating for Hoggard, nor any Arizona State Bar Board of Legal Specialization certification. His public reputation, based on the research available, rests on client reviews and peer endorsements collected on Avvo rather than on a formal, blind-reviewed legal ranking.

LA LEY

El contexto legal de Arizona, en lenguaje sencillo

Readers considering a personal injury claim in Arizona should understand a few ground rules. What follows is general information, not legal advice.

El reloj de dos años. Arizona’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of injury (A.R.S. § 12-542).

Demandar al gobierno es más rápido y más estricto. Claims against Arizona public entities require a formal notice of claim within 180 days (A.R.S. § 12-821.01) and a lawsuit within one year (A.R.S. § 12-821).

La culpa se comparte, no es todo o nada. Arizona follows pure comparative negligence (A.R.S. § 12-2505): an injured person’s recovery is reduced by their percentage of fault, but not eliminated even if they were mostly at fault.

Los menores tienen más tiempo. The limitations clock is generally paused for minors and people of unsound mind until the disability ends (A.R.S. § 12-502).

EVALUACIÓN

La perspectiva de Awesome Attorneys

The strongest case for Hoggard’s practice is geographic: the Verde Valley is genuinely underserved by dedicated local counsel, and a solo attorney with real Maricopa County trial experience, sitting in a Cottonwood office rather than routing calls to a Phoenix call center, is a meaningful option for residents who would otherwise drive over an hour for representation. Client reviews consistently describe attentive, personal service, which tracks with what a solo practice in a smaller market can credibly offer.

The honest trade-offs: this is a general civil practice, not an injury-exclusive firm, and Hoggard’s public case data is thin — a couple of named matters on Avvo rather than a published results page. His recognition profile is academic rather than a peer-reviewed legal ranking, and prospective clients with a large or complex injury claim should ask directly about trial experience and results specific to personal injury cases rather than assuming volume this firm’s size doesn’t publish.
