3rd Party Liability

Seattle, Washington Third Party Liability

If you are injured due to an accident where someone is negligent, those parties, no matter who they are, need to be held accountable. At The Walthew Law Firm in Seattle, Washington, we have a thorough knowledge of injury law. That in-depth background allows us to identify the negligent party and help our clients get the compensation they deserve.

Construction site accident litigation can become complex and challenging because the employer cannot be sued for the accident or any injuries that were suffered. That is where a third party liability claim, perhaps against a contractor, comes into play. If heavy equipment or a tool caused the injury, your attorney at The Walthew Law Firm can go after the manufacturer of the product for the defect or the company that rented a product that was poorly maintained.

Delivery drivers often suffer injuries in car and truck accidents through no fault of their own. A normal work day can become a life-changing event if they are seriously injured in a motor vehicle accident. If there was a defective part in the car, a product liability suit can be filed against the manufacturer. If the car was not properly maintained by a mechanic other than someone working for the employer, a personal injury suit can be filed against the company which improperly repaired the vehicle.

Your third party liability claim suffered while on the job can also become a Workers' Compensation matter. Depending on the severity of the injuries and how long you are out of work, you may also be in need of representation for a Social Security Disability claim. Our firm is in the unique position to handle all three aspects of the law, both separately and together.
