We Work Hard to Protect Your Legal Rights
When you leave home, you don’t expect to end your day in an emergency room. That’s the nature of personal injuries. They occur suddenly and accidentally, causing injuries when you least expect them. You may fall due to a poorly maintained sidewalk. A speeding driver may crash into your car. When a negligent person injures you, Bonin Law can determine if they owe compensation for your injuries. Our personal injury attorneys in Island County can work hard to protect your legal rights while you focus on healing.

Personal Injury Cases In Island County
A personal injury occurs when a negligent individual, company, organization, or other entity harms someone. Incidents occur in public and private spaces, on roads and highways, and just about anywhere people live, work, play, and gather.
Car Accidents
Based on Washington State Patrol Collision Reports accidents in Island County, happen for the same reasons as throughout the country. They occur primarily due to speeding, distracted driving, alcohol consumption, drug impairment, and other risky driving behaviors. Our law firm handles accidental injuries involving:
- Private Passenger Cars and Trucks
- Motorcycles
- Pedestrians
- Bicycles
- Commercial Trucks
- Other Vehicles
Premises Liability Accidents
When a property owner fails to keep their premises safe, innocent people often sustain injuries. Negligent security or maintenance sometimes causes slip-and-falls, drownings, electrical injuries, and many other types of casualties. Liability assessments consider the injured victim’s status on the property at the time.
A property owner is strictly liable for their dog’s actions in public spaces. They’re also responsible if their dog attacks a visitor who is on their property with express or implied permission.
Severe Injuries
Life-changing injuries occur under many circumstances. Poor premises maintenance, inadequate security, and failed pool safety contribute to catastrophic accidents. A negligent driver’s actions can cause a heavy impact, extensive damage, and disabling injuries. Motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians have minimal or no protection, so even a low-impact crash can leave them with life-threatening injuries.
At Bonin Law, we are committed to resolving even the most complicated injury claims.

Wrongful Death
When you lose a loved one due to someone’s negligent actions, it can change every aspect of your life. Washington’s Wrongful Death codes may allow you to recover compensation for your losses, but it’s often a complicated process. At Bonin Law, our wrongful death attorneys can manage the legal issue while you take time to grieve.
Contact our law firm immediately if you suspect that a negligent person fatally injured your loved one. We protect our clients’ legal rights, comply with court guidelines, and intervene with liability insurers. Our legal team can investigate any liability issues and take action to help you comply with legal requirements.
Recoverable Damages For a Personal Injury Claim
When we settle or try a personal injury claim, we seek all legally recoverable damages.
- Economic: Medical bills, lost wages, medications, physical therapy, prostheses, and other documented expenses for treatment, recovery, rehabilitation, and mobility.
- Non-Economic damages: We negotiate a value for pain, suffering, disability, disfigurement, loss of consortium, and other subjective damages.
Under certain circumstances, Washington’s negligence statute allows insurers and courts to reduce the amount of compensation you receive. If you or your loved one contributed to an accident, a settlement may reflect a reduction based on an injured victim’s negligence percentage.
Statute of Limitations
Washington gives injured people and their families three years from the date of an accident to make a claim. If you don’t settle your claim or file a lawsuit by your deadline, you lose your right to make a claim.
If you’re injured and managing treatment, recovery, and disability issues, it’s easy to miss this critical deadline. When you establish a working relationship with our law firm, we take immediate steps to protect your legal rights. Our legal team also ensures that you comply with legal deadlines.
