If you have been severely injured by the wrongdoing or negligence of another party, you may be unsure of the benefits of filing a personal injury claim. As you think about your options, consider the following:
In order to successfully recover compensation after being involved in a car accident, slip and fall, bicycle or pedestrian accident, or another accident type that’s caused by the fault of another party, you will need to prove four elements. These elements are duty, breach of duty, causation, and damages.
In a nutshell, you will need to prove that the party against whom you’re filing a claim had a responsibility to treat you with a certain level of care, and that this level of care was breached when the person acted outside of the scope of what a person of ordinary prudence would do in a similar situation. You will also need to prove that the party’s negligence was the proximate cause of your injuries; in other words, that your injuries would not have occurred but for the person’s negligence. Finally, you’ll have to prove that you suffered actual damages.
Our lawyers will lead an investigation and all parts of the claim-building process, including proving liability, issuing a demand letter, and negotiating your settlement.
You will only have a limited amount of time to file a personal injury lawsuit if you are injured in or around Bothell West, Washington. Under Washington law, most personal injury cases have a three-year statute of limitations. What this means is that you must file a lawsuit within three years from the date of the accident or other incident that gave rise to your claim. If you do not file your lawsuit within that three-year time window, you will have what is known as a time-barred claim. Once a claim is barred because the statute of limitations ran out, you will not be able to obtain compensation by filing a civil lawsuit.
To avoid a situation in which you file your claim too late, you should begin working with an Bothell West personal injury lawyer as soon as possible. If you get in touch with the Khan Law Firm soon after your injury, we can begin working on your case and can ensure that your claim is filed in a timely manner.
