About Colby
Biography
Colby Kanouse is the managing attorney at Stone Rose Law in Scottsdale, Arizona. With extensive trial and litigation experience, he represents clients throughout the Greater Phoenix metro area and across the entire state of Arizona in all types of personal injury cases, including motor vehicle accidents (car, motorcycle, truck, boating), dog bites and animal attacks, workplace injuries, slip-and-fall accidents, wrongful death, catastrophic injuries, and more.
Proven Track Record of Results: Since his admission to the Arizona State Bar in 2006, Colby has litigated thousands of personal injury cases in state and federal courts, successfully recovering millions of dollars in compensation for Arizona accident victims. As a member of the National Trial Lawyers' Top 100, the Arizona Trial Lawyers Association, and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, Colby has the experience and skills to confidently represent you in or out of court so that you're not taken advantage of by insurance companies, opposing counsel, or any other party invested in limiting your compensation.
Education & Background: Colby graduated Summa Cum Laude from Arizona State University with a bachelor's degree in history in 2001 and soon after earned his Juris Doctor from the ASU Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law.
Stone Rose Law Personal Injury Team: At Stone Rose Law, we're a dedicated personal injury law firm with a proven track record of successfully settling, litigating, and resolving complex and severe injury cases, including wrongful deaths, catastrophic injuries, and life-altering accidents. Too often, large firms prioritize volume over results, accepting every case only to settle quickly for less than they're worth just to move on to the next client. That's not how we operate. We use a comprehensive approach to prepare your case for the best possible settlement, and if your claim does not settle out of court, that meticulous preparation becomes the foundation to represent you in arbitration or at trial. We will do whatever it takes to obtain the largest compensation possible, even if it means fighting long-term to attain the results you need. At our law office, we put you first, prioritizing personalized attention, regular case updates, and the highest quality legal care from a team that truly invests in your recovery and your future.
Community Commitment: Beyond his legal practice, Colby gives back to the community by volunteering at the annual Veteran's Stand Down, providing free legal services to veterans of the armed forces.
Free Legal Consultation for Your Case: Colby understands that when you've been injured in a preventable accident, your physical recovery, financial stability, and future are at stake. He provides aggressive representation while ensuring you understand your rights and options at every step. Stone Rose Law offers free consultations to discuss your injury case and explore your path to justice and fair compensation. Reach out today for a free legal consultation.
