Premises Liability Accidents
Sometimes accidental injuries occur due to a property owner’s negligent acts. Poor maintenance, safety, security, property deterioration, and other premises issues often cause or contribute to these incidents. Innocent victims fall due to faulty pavement. They sustain burns from electrical exposures, and they trip on poorly lit stairs. Childhood drownings occur when property owners fail to implement adequate pool safety measures.
Dog Bite Injuries
Washington’s Dog Bite codes hold owners strictly liable for any injury their dog causes while in a public place. The owner is also liable for injury to a person who is legally on their premises, such as a mail person or an invited guest.
Severe Injuries
No matter how it happens, a serious accident always has the potential to cause severe, catastrophic, or disabling injuries. The most traumatic injuries sometimes cause fatalities. Those who recover from their injuries, often deal with costly medical treatment, arduous recoveries, strenuous rehabilitation, and lifelong impairments. These severe injuries occur more frequently than they should.
- Spinal Cord Injury
- Traumatic Digit and Limb Amputations
- Multiple Fractures
- Internal Organ Damage
- Loss of Reproductive Organs
- Anoxic and Traumatic Brain Injuries
- Catastrophic Burns
- Total Loss of Vision
- Fatal injuries
At Bonin Law, we have the knowledge and resources to resolve your case, regardless of your injury severity.
Wrongful Death
If your loved one sustains a fatal injury due to someone’s negligence, we can determine if you have the right to compensation. Washington’s Wrongful Death codes allow a personal representative to seek damages on behalf of a decedent’s beneficiaries. We understand that you need time to work through your grief, but if you want to assert your rights, you must take immediate action.
We help our clients meet court mandates and critical deadlines. To ensure that we have time to protect your rights, we recommend that you contact us as soon as possible after your loved one’s accident.
Recoverable Damages For a Personal Injury Claim
When we resolve an injury claim, the settlement or judgment usually includes:
- Economic Damages: Out-of-pocket costs for medical bills, lost income, medication, therapies, prostheses, and other treatment, recovery, rehabilitation, and mobility expenses
- Non-Economic damages: Negotiated damages for pain, suffering, disability, disfigurement, loss of consortium, and other subjectively assessed issues
Insurance companies and courts determine whether an injured person contributed to an accident. A settlement sometimes reflects a reduction based on the injured person’s negligence percentage.
Statute of Limitations
In Washington, you have a three-year statute of limitations that begins as of the date and time your accident occurred. If you don’t settle your claim or file a lawsuit by your three-year deadline, you lose your right to make a claim.
When you’re recovering from injuries, you can easily lose track of this important deadline. To preserve your right to make a claim, we recommend that you contact Bonin Law as soon as possible if a negligent person injures you.
