Is the City of Bellevue Liable?Bellevue, WA, like any other municipality, is frequently responsible for injuries to its citizens and visitors. There are multiple scenarios in which a person may be injured due to the negligence of the City of Bellevue. Some common personal injury / negligence cases include: injuries that take place in a Bellevue public building or facility, a person being injured due to the negligent actions of a Bellevue city worker or official, Bellevue pedestrians that are hit by cars in dangerous intersections, being stuck by a vehicle from the Bellevue motor pool that is operated by a Bellevue city employee, or being in a motor vehicle or pedestrian accident that is caused by a Bellevue Police Department (SPD) officer perusing a criminal during a high-speed chase. Unfortunately it may require a lawsuit to get the attention of City of Bellevue officials and motivate them to make changes to policies that will secure the safety of all citizens.
The city operates a number of other agencies whose negligence may have resulted in your injuries. Depending on where you were at the time of the accident or what agencies may have been involved, you may have a legitimate claim against:
