About Mr John P Torgenson

<p>John Torgenson is honored to stick up for good people who are hurt. He grew up in St. George, Utah, where his parents, Fernando and Karen, raised him with a blue-collar work ethic, accountability for decisions, and taught him to always stick up for himself and others that are being bullied.</p> <p>After high school, John attended the University of Utah, graduating in 2001. John then attended his dream school, Notre Dame Law School, where he graduated, with honors, in 2004. John is licensed to fight in court for real people in the State of Arizona, the United States Federal District Court of Arizona, and the 9th Federal Circuit Court of Appeals.</p> <p>Before establishing what is now Torgenson Law, John practiced in the litigation group at Fennemore Craig, the oldest law firm in Arizona and one of the largest firms in the Southwest. John will always be grateful to the excellent lawyers and great leaders who gave him a shot and taught him so much about being a lawyer at Fennemore Craig. Having practiced at Fennemore Craig in both the defense and plaintiff&rsquo;s practice areas gives John a complete perspective of the litigation process, and valuable insight into how to efficiently and effectively advance his clients&rsquo; interests. His unique and balanced background enhances his credibility with defense lawyers, insurers, and defendants as well as with judges and arbitrators.</p> <p>John realizes that civic and community involvement is essential in order for him to keep a solid balance between his professional and personal life. He was named one of Phoenix&rsquo;s top 35 entrepreneurs under the age of 35 by the Arizona Republic. He is a board member at Kids @ Core (offering fitness and healthy living classes for underprivileged children), has coached the 7th and 8th grade football teams at St. Francis Xavier, is an active member of the <a href="http://www.torgensonlaw.info/espanol/">Los Abogados Hispanic Bar Association</a>, and serves meals to the homeless at Andre House in downtown Phoenix. John is also a member of Grand Canyon River Guides, and has been a licensed Grand Canyon River Guide for the past 17 years.</p> <p>John devotes 100% of his career to fighting insurance companies and corporate interests on behalf of good people who are hurt. People call this &ldquo;personal injury law.&rdquo; John wears that term proudly. Although insurance companies, corporations, and their lobbyists want you to envision slick-backed hair, greedy, desperate lawyers running after an ambulance when you hear &ldquo;personal injury lawyer.&rdquo; John wants people to envision what it really is &ndash; taking vulnerable, broken, hurt people who are at the loneliest, darkest times in their life, and helping them rebuild &ndash; piece by piece. Having the backs of real human beings by fighting against greedy insurance companies and corporations who are looking to boost their ever-increasing profits on the broken backs of the people they hurt. That&rsquo;s what a real &ldquo;personal injury lawyer&rdquo; is. And John is proud to be one.</p>
