Personal injury law is the area of civil law that provides accident victims with a legal pathway to seek compensation for both their economic and non-economic damages. Personal injury cases may arise from all types of incidents that cause injury, including:
The main thing these cases have in common is that a person was harmed and another party is at least partially responsible. However, the legal strategy of your personal injury attorney in Seattle may vary depending on the type of accident and the parties involved.
After you have been hurt, you must file your personal injury claim within a legal deadline, known as the statute of limitations. In Washington, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is three years from the date of the injury. If you do not file your case within this time limit, then your claim may be barred, and you will not be able to recover damages for your injuries.
A few exceptions may occur. For example, if a case involves a minor, the statute of limitations does not begin until they turn 18. In other cases, the injured party may not discover the harm until later, or they may not know who injured them, such as in a hit-and-run car accident. In those cases, your lawyer could argue that the statute of limitations should not run until you knew or reasonably should have known about these facts. However, since 2024, there is no statute of limitations at all for sexual abuse under Washington law, allowing survivors to come forward when they are ready.
If your case involves claims against a government entity, like a state-employed doctor or a city bus driver, there are additional requirements for filing your case. First, you must file a written notice with the government agency and wait 60 days before filing your suit. You may also have less time to file your claim in general.
Because of the importance of filing promptly, it is crucial to consult with a Seattle lawyer as soon as you can after you have been harmed. Not only does this help ensure that you meet the filing deadline, but it also helps your attorney start gathering evidence while it is still easily accessible. Eyewitness accounts, security footage, and written records may fade or get lost over time, making it harder to prove your claim.
If you are recovering from injuries, it can feel overwhelming to think about your legal claims on top of your medical appointments and trying to catch up on missed work. However, whether your accident was minor or you suffered catastrophic injuries, you still deserve compensation for what you have gone through.
