While slips, trips, and falls are common, no two personal injury cases are exactly the same. The only way to really understand the value of your case is to evaluate the unique circumstances of your injury. Even when your injuries are similar to those involved in prior cases, they impact you differently. The circumstances of your accident will also be different from anyone else’s.
When calculating the value of your slip and fall accident claim, our lawyers will evaluate the following:
Our lawyers will work with you during the valuation process. We’ll ask questions about how the injuries have impacted your life. With these important details, we’ll be able to build the strongest case possible.
In Seattle, victims can pursue compensation for economic damages and non-economic damages.
Economic damages are your financial expenses. Your compensation award should make you “whole” again by reimbursing you for all of the costs you have incurred.
Some common examples include:
Non-economic damages are a bit more complicated. These are your subjective and personal losses. They’re often referred to simply as “pain and suffering” damages.
Remember that your non-economic losses can be far-reaching, and may include:
Without a lawyer’s help, it can be extremely difficult to recover the fair value of your non-economic damages. After all, you won’t have a receipt to prove their value. That means the insurance company will likely try to diminish their worth.
We will calculate the full range of damages and seek every dollar you are entitled to.

Washington has a pure comparative negligence law. You can recover compensation if anyone else shares some blame for your injuries. That’s true even if you were partly–or even mostly–responsible for your slip and fall accident.
However, there are consequences if you share fault for your injuries. If the insurance company can prove you were even partly to blame, your compensation will be reduced in proportion to your percentage of fault.
We often handle slip and fall accident cases involving:
Slip and fall injuries can be severe enough to cause catastrophic injuries. Our slip and fall accident lawyers represent clients who have suffered amputations, paralysis, and even lost loved ones because of their injuries.
Some of the most common causes of slips and falls in Seattle include:
While slip and falls can happen for many different reasons, it’s still up to the victim to establish the cause of their injuries. Consulting an experienced lawyer sooner rather than later is always a good idea. Remember that the property owner will likely fix the problem quickly after someone gets hurt.
Property owners in Washington are responsible for their visitors’ safety. When a property owner allows others onto their premises, they must ensure that the property is reasonably safe.
When people get hurt, negligent property owners can be held financially responsible for failure to provide safe conditions. This is called “premises liability”.
Under Washington premises liability laws, you must generally establish the following to prove the owner was negligent:
The property owner’s duties depend on why you were visiting. The owner is held to a higher standard if the property is generally open to the public. When you visit businesses or public spaces, you’re classified as an invitee.
Owners owe invitees a duty to:
You may also have rights if you were injured while visiting private property. For example, if you’re invited over to a friend’s house, you’re classified as a licensee. Property owners must still warn licensees about non-obvious risks, but aren’t required to inspect their property to find hazardous conditions. Generally, property owners don’t owe a duty of care to trespassers, except to refrain from intentionally harming them.
The deadline for filing a lawsuit after an accident is called the statute of limitations. Under Washington law, you have three years from the date of your injury to take legal action. After three years pass, you may lose your right to sue for damages.
