If you have suffered an injury from an automobile accident, slip and fall, or animal attack in Kirkland, 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 Kirkland. 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.

Life in Kirkland

Kirkland, Washington is a suburb of Seattle, and is located in King County. It has a population of approximately 47,000 people. However, in June of 2011, Kirkland will annex some surrounding unincorporated territory, adding approximately 33,000 residents.

Kirkland was first settled by Peter Kirk in 1886. Kirk saw that the area would be a good location for many industries, including steel production and shipping. Because Kirkland is situated near Lake Washington, which, thanks to the Lake Washington Ship Canal, is directly connected to the Pacific Ocean, it is extremely valuable as an inland harbor.

Kirkland is currently home to several entertainment companies, as well as several software companies, particularly those that specialize in the development of video games. This is a rapidly-growing section of the entertainment industry, and large game companies attract many talented, highly-trained professionals, including programmers, visual artists, and voice actors. As a result, Kirkland is in pretty good economic shape, with just over 5% of the population living below the poverty line, and a median family income of over ,000.

If you live in Kirkland, Washington or the surrounding areas, and need legal services, you're in luck. There are many Kirkland, Washington lawyers who are able to help you with whatever legal issue you may be facing.
