Don't Settle for Less. We Handle Personal Injury Claims of All Sizes.
When you think of a personal injury case, you might imagine a major car accident with life-threatening injuries. But the truth is, most personal injuries are the "low-level" incidents that still cause pain, disrupt your life, and lead to mounting bills.
A minor fender-bender, a slip on a wet floor, or a dog bite that leaves a scar can feel manageable at first. However, medical bills, missed work, and the physical pain from even a seemingly small injury can quickly become overwhelming. Without legal representation, insurance companies may pressure you into a quick, lowball settlement that doesn't cover your full costs—and once you accept, you lose your right to seek further compensation.
We believe that every injury, no matter how minor it seems, deserves professional legal attention. We are dedicated to helping people in Clark County get the fair compensation they are owed so they can focus on healing.
Common "Low-Level" Personal Injury Cases We Handle
Our firm has extensive experience with the types of personal injury cases that affect people in their daily lives. We can help you with claims including:
Car Accidents with Minor Damage: Even if your car only has a dent, your body can suffer from whiplash, soft tissue injuries, or a concussion. We handle cases where the property damage is minimal but the physical and financial impact on you is significant.
Slip and Fall Accidents: A fall on a wet floor, a broken step, or an unmarked hazard can cause sprains, fractures, and back injuries. We investigate the property owner's negligence to hold them accountable.
Dog Bites and Animal Attacks: Washington State law has a "strict liability" rule for dog bites, which means the owner is almost always liable for the injury. We help victims recover compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering, and the psychological trauma of an attack.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents: Even at low speeds, a collision between a vehicle and a cyclist or pedestrian can cause serious injuries. We work to prove the driver's negligence and get you the compensation you need.
Why "Low-Level" Cases Still Need a Lawyer
Protecting Your Rights: Insurance companies are not on your side. Their goal is to pay as little as possible. We act as your buffer, handling all communication and negotiations so you can avoid being manipulated into an unfair settlement.
Ensuring Full Compensation: A quick settlement offer often only covers initial medical bills, ignoring future treatment, lost wages, and your pain and suffering. We work to calculate the full extent of your damages, including those you may not have considered.
Navigating Washington State Laws: Washington follows a "pure comparative negligence" rule. This means that even if you were partially at fault for the accident, you can still recover damages, reduced by your percentage of fault. We understand this complexity and can argue your case effectively.
Do not let an insurance company tell you your case is "too small." A low-level injury can still lead to major financial and physical setbacks.
