John Torgenson grew up in Southern Utah as a minority, facing discrimination and challenges that shaped his fighting spirit. His journey from humble beginnings to Notre Dame Law School wasn’t easy, but it forged his determination to stand up for those who need an advocate. After working at Arizona’s oldest law firm, John realized his true calling was helping injured people rebuild their lives. “These cases are personal to me,” John often says. “I take it personally and treat clients as if they’re part of our family.” This isn’t just a tagline—it’s the foundation of how he built Torgenson Law from the ground up.
At Torgenson Law, “It’s Personal” means standing by five core principles in everything we do.
Loyalty: We demonstrate loyalty by staying with clients through every step of their recovery journey, even when cases become challenging.
Trust: Trust is built through complete transparency about case progress and settlements, with a promise to never take more than our clients.
Commitment: Our commitment extends beyond office hours, answering calls at 8:45 PM when you’re worried in a hospital waiting room.
Empathy: Empathy drives us to understand not just the legal implications of your injury, but how it affects your daily life, your family, and your future.
Work Ethic: our work ethic is unmatched—we’ll work late into the night preparing your case because we know insurance companies have armies of lawyers working against you.
The people behind your case bring diverse backgrounds but share a common mission. Our team includes attorneys, paralegals, case managers, and support staff who’ve chosen Torgenson Law because they believe in our approach. Many have been with us for over a decade—like Corina (Coco), our Director of First Impressions, who’s been welcoming clients for almost 11 years. Each team member can tell you what “It’s Personal” means to them, from helping clients navigate medical appointments to celebrating milestones in their recovery. We’re not just processing cases—we’re helping rebuild lives.
Judith Walkers’ son Hunter was killed when his vehicle was hit by a tractor-trailer whose driver had dropped his fast food drink. John visited the accident scene and salvage yard to collect personal belongings for the mother and later helped her pack up her son’s apartment. He provided emotional support, noting he would get calls at 10 PM when she was struggling, and he would talk her through it.
Torgenson Law isn’t just another firm with a catchy jingle. We give each client the attention they deserve. We don’t use cookie-cutter approaches because every injury affects people differently. Our practice was built through word-of-mouth and reputation, not by outspending competitors on marketing. When you call a billboard firm, you’ll likely talk to a call center representative working from a script. When you call us, you talk to real people who listen to your story and care about your outcome.
When you work with us, expect a fundamentally different experience. For your case, you can have John’s personal cell phone number—something billboard firms would never consider. Every client receives their own dedicated text messaging number with immediate response. We strive to keep the lines of communication with our clients open and always provide updates at each stage of every case. We have a bilingual staff that is fluent in both English and Spanish so we can provide stellar representation to all residents of Arizona.
