Port Angeles Personal Injury Attorney
Port Angeles is known as being the largest city within Clallam County, Washington, for its harbor (after which it is named), and as the home of Peninsula College. While the population is only about 20,000 people, Port Angeles has a lot of charm, a strong sense of community, and is even the sister city to Mutsu, Amori, Japan.
While this small quiet place may seem like the safest place in the world, injuries and accidents do happen. If you or a loved one has been injured in Port Angeles, please call our Port Angeles personal injury attorneys at the Khan Injury Law PLLC directly today for your free consultation.
Common Types of Serious Injuries
When a person has been seriously injured and another party is to blame, they may have a cause of action to file a personal injury claim. Common types of serious injuries include:
- Traumatic brain injury. A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is one of the most serious injury types. A TBI can cause long-term complications for thinking, cognition, learning, memory, emotion, and sensation.
- Spinal cord injury. One of the most tragic injuries is a spinal cord injury. If the spinal cord is impacted, a person may suffer paralysis or partial paralysis from the site of the injury downwards.
- Amputation injury. Losing a limb or losing the loss of use of a limb can be extremely devastating and result in permanent disability.
- Burn injuries. Burn injuries are not only painful and debilitating but also disfiguring, too. These types of injuries can cause permanent scarring.
- Internal injuries. Internal injuries include things like damaged or punctured organs and internal bleeding. Internal injuries cannot be seen with the naked eye, but are often serious enough to be fatal.
- External injuries and injuries to extremities. External injuries and injuries to extremities include, but are not limited to, bruises, cuts, lacerations, road rash injuries, and bone fractures, and soft tissue injuries.
- Psychological injuries. Not all injuries are physical; injuries can lead to psychological harm, too. Many victims of catastrophic injuries incur post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and anxiety.
