Seattle Personal Injury Attorney
Suffering a personal injury in a trip and fall, car accident or other unexpected event is by definition not something you are prepared to deal with. The law imposes duties on individuals and businesses to act with care toward others. Violating that duty results in liability for injuries that result. Unfortunately, holding the responsible party liable is not always a simple matter. Insurance companies employ trained claims adjusters whose goal is to resolve the claim for as little as possible. You need to be represented by an attorney who deals with insurance claims and focused on insuring you get the maximum for your medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and other damages.

Helping You Get the Maximum Compensation You Deserve
In any personal injury case, the burden falls on the injury victim to prove all elements of a negligence or tort claim. These elements include proving:
- The other party owed you a duty of care
- They breached that duty by something they did or didn’t do
- Their negligence caused you to suffer an injury
Insurance company have a pocketful of tricks and tactics they pull out to minimize or avoid liability. They’ll say they weren’t to blame or injuries were caused in another way, such as due to a pre-existing condition. They may downplay your injuries or say that your injuries couldn’t have been caused in the accident. They’ll hire their own doctors to give an opinion to that effect. We’ll not only help you get the medical care you truly need, but we’ll help you document the medical bills and other costs you’ve been forced to endure. This includes your pain and suffering, loss of work, inconvenience, and the impact on your quality of life. Our experienced Seattle personal injury lawyers work to create a complete picture that proves the need for maximum compensation.
Dealing with Insurance Companies
Insurers will often also say the accident was your fault, or that you contributed to it by your own negligence, such as failure to pay attention and avoid the accident. Every bit of blame they can lay on you reduces what they’ll have to pay. You can still hold them liable for their portion of the damages, even if you are found at fault more than the other party. But we won’t let this happen when the facts don’t support it. We are as skilled and experienced in accident investigations and analysis as any insurance claims adjuster or attorney. We’ll gather the facts and build a strong case that proves the other party’s fault and their liability for the full amount of damages.
