What Constitutes a PI Case in Lakewood, WA?

Personal injuries come in many shapes and sizes, and can be caused by almost anything, but there are some elements that are common to almost all of them in Washington

If you have suffered an injury from an automobile accident, slip and fall, or animal attack in Lakewood, it is imperative that you understand your legal rights, and how any personal injury claim is likely to go forward.

Common Elements of a Personal Injury Claim in Washington

In almost every Personal Injury claim, the injured person must be able to establish four elements to win their case in Lakewood. The 4 elements that the party bringing the suit (the plaintiff) must establish to succeed are: (1) the party that caused the accident (the defendant) behaved negligently, (2) that negligence caused the accident, (3) that the defendant's conduct caused the injury, and (4) that your case has been brought before the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

It is necessary that you do not sit on your rights, and delay the filing of your case. In Washington, you must file your case within a specific amount of time, before the statute of limitations runs out. If you fail to do this, you could lose any chance at recovery that you may once have had.
