SEATAC PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER
An accident can take a person by surprise, leaving them injured, unable to return to work, in serious amounts of pain, and wondering how they will be able to provide for their family, let alone pay their mounting hospital bills. When you suffer a personal injury because someone else acted neglectfully and wrongfully, the experienced Seatac personal injury attorneys at the Khan Law Firm will help you to understand all aspects of personal injury law, filing a claim, and recovering your full compensation amount.
Types of Personal Injuries
No two types of personal injuries are alike. When you have been injured, you deserve the competent representation of a law firm that understands your specific situations and needs, and has experience representing the victims of accidents similar to yours. Some types of personal injuries that are common in Seatac include:
- Drowning and near drowning injuries. Whether in a body of water or a pool, a fatal drowning injury, particularly that involving a child, is horrific. Near-drowning injuries are often just as traumatic, leaving the victim with permanent brain impairment and the need for permanent ongoing medical care.
- Car accidents. Car accidents are almost always the result of driver error, and can cause a wide range of personal injuries such as a brain injury, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, permanent scarring and disfigurement, amputation injuries, and more.
- Slip and fall incidents. When properties are not maintained to a safe state, a visitor to that property may be at risk of a slip and fall. Some common causes of slip and fall include wet or icy surfaces, torn carpet, broken stairs, debris and objects in walkways, and lack of handrails.
- Product liability cases. When you buy a product, you surely expect that that product will be beneficial for your life, not cause you harm. Unfortunately, there are hundreds of products on the market that are designed or manufactured with defects that lead to consumer injuries, ranging from vehicles to prescription drugs to furniture to baby toys and more.
- Dog bites. Dog owners have a duty to make sure that dogs that are known to be dangerous are restrained, and are held liable for an individual’s injuries when their dog bites. In Washington, dog owners are strictly liable for damages caused to dog bite victims, which means the dog owner need not prove negligence in order to get compensated.
- Pedestrian, motorcycle, and bicycle accidents. Some of the worst accidents are those involving a vehicle and a pedestrian, a motorcycle, or a bicycle. Because riders on these three latter modes of transportation have no protection from the road or the thousands of pounds’ worth of steel that is traveling at them, their injuries are often the most serious and the most tragic.
- Truck accidents. When a truck and a car go up against each other, the truck is almost always the victor. When a truck accident happens, liability is often hard to determine based on the number of parties involved. A Seatac personal injury attorney can help you to get to the bottom of who is at fault for your crash.
OTHER PRACTICE AREAS
CAUSES OF ACCIDENTS LEADING TO PERSONAL INJURIES
In nearly all cases, personal injuries would not occur but for the negligence of the at-fault party. Negligence means the failure to exercise a proper degree of care that a reasonable person would exercise in the same situation. Examples of negligence include:
- Failing to maintain a vehicle;
- Failing to restrain a dog that has bitten someone in the past;
- Driving while drunk;
- Failing to fence a pool in a neighborhood with young children;
- Failing to restore a property to safe condition; and
- Failing to disclose risks associated with the use of a product.
The above list is not inclusive; there are countless acts of negligence that may be to blame for a person’s accident and injuries.

What to Do if You Are Injured in Seatac
If you are injured in Seatac, the first thing that you should do is to seek medical care for your injuries. Seeking medical care is important for your health and wellbeing, but will also be essential when it comes to seeking damages – if you did not seek medical care, it may be difficult to prove that you were injured.
After you seek medical care, you should make sure that any other relevant parties are aware of your accident. For example, if you were injured in a pedestrian accident, you should report the incident to the police immediately. If you were injured at an amusement park, the amusement park management should be informed of exactly what happened.
Finally, you should contact a Seatac personal injury lawyer. The sooner you contact an attorney, the better; evidence essential to your case may be destroyed with time.
