Without an experienced attorney, the legal aftermath of a personal injury can seem nearly as infuriating and traumatic as the accident itself. Our attorneys know what to do, from gathering medical information about the injury to negotiating with the other party’s insurance company. This helps remove the emotional toll from your injuries so that you can spend time with your family and focus on healing from your injuries.. At the Everett law offices of The Walthew Law Firm, we assist clients in all types of personal injury accidents.
How Were You Injured?
We represent clients in many types of personal injury accidents including:
- Car Accident – Chances are that driving is the most dangerous activity that you do every day. We work with witnesses, police, crash scene investigators, and experts to get to the bottom of the cause of the collision, ultimately holding that careless or reckless party accountable.
- DUI Accidents – Alcohol-impaired driving accounts for 30 percent of all traffic deaths. Here in Washington, DUI crash fatalities rose a staggering 12.6 percent from 2015 to 2016, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The unfortunate fact is that a drunk driver will likely injure you, someone in your family, or a friend.
- Truck Accidents– When large commercial vehicles cause accidents with passenger vehicles or pedestrians, the outcome is almost always the same — the truck driver walks away from the crash while the other party is taken away in an ambulance. We have the legal know-how to hold truck drivers and the commercial companies accountable for your injuries.
- Bicycle and Pedestrian Injuries – Cyclists and pedestrians are two of most vulnerable road users and sometimes suffer the greatest injuries when collisions occur. Motor vehicle drivers can fail to see pedestrians and cyclists because they drive distracted, looking down at cell phones instead of at the road. Drivers may also engage in road rage, hitting cyclists on purpose or cutting off pedestrians as they attempt to cross the street.
Personal Injury Video
- Motorcycle Accidents – Motorcyclists get a bad reputation in many people’s minds for riding recklessly. However, the data shows that when the crash is between a motorcycle and another vehicle, passenger vehicles and trucks are usually to blame. “I couldn’t see” the motorcyclist is no excuse to pass off blame.
- Slip and Fall Accidents – Falls account for nearly the same number of deaths as traffic collisions, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Unintentional falls take the lives of roughly 32,000 people each year. Whether you fell at another person’s home or the local grocery store, there may be grounds for a personal injury claim or lawsuit. If the fall was caused by an unsafe condition such as a puddle that should have been cleaned up, icy sidewalks, objects blocking a walking area, ripped carpet, poor lighting, or lack of a hand or guard rail, you likely have a claim against a person, business, or city.
- Negligent Premises Security – Certain businesses also have a duty to provide you a reasonable level of security and safety from robbery or harm while at their place of business. If you are harmed and the business failed to provide security cameras, bouncers, parking lot lights, security personnel, or abiding by occupancy maximums,you may have grounds for a claim or lawsuit for your injuries.
- Third Party Claims – If your injury from a negligent party happened while you work (driving for work; at a jobsite; on a sales call) and was not caused by a coworker or your employer, you can claim Worker’s Compensation and pursue a lawsuit against the negligent third party. The attorneys at The Walthew Law Firm (add hyperlink here) can represent you in your Workers’ Compensation claim as well as your claim against the negligent third party.
- Other Accidents – These include accidents that involve dog attacks, elevators, escalators, moving walkways, swimming pools, contaminated food, exposure to dangerous chemicals, and more.
