About Carl
Biography
Carl Engstrand offers effective, effiicient and empathetic representation to those injured in a car accident. Mr. Engstrand holds an Arizona law license allowing him to practice law and counsel clients within the state of Arizona. Mindful that each client brings a unique situation and goal to every case, Carl makes it a priority to listen intently to each client’s objective. Listening with empathy, allows Mr. Engstrand to craft an effective legal strategy to achieve the client’s goal.
Carl Engstrand first arrived in Arizona in 2005 to attend the University of Arizona, and graduated with the honors distinction Magna Cum Laude. Mr. Engstrand then studied law at the University of the District of Columbia, again graduating with the honors distinction Magna Cum Laude. Graduating with honors from both universities demonstrates the time and energy Carl dedicates to the task at hand.
Although living in the nation’s capital had its moments, Carl appreciates his return to Arizona. Here, Mr. Engstrand gets the opportunity to work directly with his clients and help counsel them through difficult situations. In advising clients, Carl focuses his practice solely on personal injury cases. The large majority of Carl's work involves those injured in a car accident. This focus on personal injury and especially car accidents allows Carl two professional goals; advocating passionately to achieve the best possible result for his clients and communicating diligently with his clients so they may make the most informed choice.
Carl Engstrand and his wonderful wife Caitlin consider themselves amateur athletes and home cooks. Carl also regularly donates blood to the Red Cross. One blood donation can save up to three lives and blood is always in demand. Often a person critically injured in a car accident requires multiple pints of blood.
Please do not hesitate to contact Carl Engstrand regarding your legal questions. Carl is here to help.

Thank You For Your Representation!
