Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

My brother, a Mexican citizen who lives in Mexicali, was in an accident in Calexico, CA. Badly injured, he was flown by helicopter ambulance to AZ for hospital treatment. AZ hospital filed a lien in AZ. My brother gets an atty in CA. The case settled for all the insurance policy of $25,000. AZ hospital wants it all to cover their lien. Atty in CA says in CA the lien would be reduced, but in AZ the lien has priority over all. He says AZ law applies and we need to pay the hospital its full lien.

Which lien law should apply, CA or AZ?
