Washington Personal Injury Attorneys for Serious Cases
Personal Injury Practice Areas
After a serious injury, you may be dealing with pain, medical bills, missed work, insurance calls, and uncertainty about what comes next. Defiance Injury Law helps people and families across Seattle, Bellevue, King County, and throughout Washington take action after preventable harm.
Our personal injury attorneys handle complex cases involving serious injury, wrongful death, car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, medical negligence, nursing home abuse, unsafe property, and other life changing events.
Serious Injury & Wrongful Death
When an injury changes your life, or negligence takes the life of someone you love, the case requires careful preparation and real accountability. We represent individuals and families in serious injury and wrongful death claims involving catastrophic harm, fatal accidents, medical negligence, unsafe property, and other preventable tragedies.
Maritime Injury & Death
Maritime injury cases involve unique laws, dangerous working conditions, and employers who may have powerful legal teams on their side. We represent seamen, dockworkers, vessel workers, and families affected by maritime injuries, offshore accidents, vessel negligence, and workplace fatalities at sea.
Medical Negligence & malpractice
Medical negligence can happen when doctors, nurses, hospitals, clinics, specialists, or other healthcare providers fail to meet accepted standards of care. We handle claims involving misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, failure to monitor, and other preventable medical harm.
Elder & Nursing Home Abuse
We advocate for seniors who have experienced abuse, neglect, or harm in nursing homes or care facilities. Families trust nursing homes and care facilities to protect vulnerable loved ones. When abuse, neglect, falls, pressure injuries, medication errors, dehydration, malnutrition, or wrongful death occurs, we help families investigate what happened and hold negligent facilities accountable.
Car Accident
A serious car accident can leave you with medical bills, lost income, pain, and pressure from an insurance company. Our Washington car accident attorneys help injured drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and families pursue compensation after crashes caused by distracted driving, speeding, impaired driving, reckless behavior, or unsafe road conditions.
Truck accident claims are often more complex than ordinary car accident cases. We represent people injured in crashes involving semi-trucks, 18-wheelers, delivery trucks, box trucks, dump trucks, and other commercial vehicles. These cases may involve trucking companies, driver logs, maintenance records, black box data, cargo contractors, and multiple insurance policies.
Motorcycle Accident
Motorcycle riders are often blamed unfairly after a crash, even when another driver caused the collision. Our motorcycle accident lawyers help injured riders pursue compensation after crashes involving failure to yield, unsafe lane changes, distracted driving, road hazards, dooring, and drivers who say they “didn’t see” the motorcycle.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Injury
Bicyclists and pedestrians have little protection when struck by a car, truck, rideshare vehicle, or commercial vehicle. We help people injured in crosswalk crashes, bike lane collisions, intersection accidents, unsafe roadway incidents, and pedestrian injury claims throughout Seattle and Washington.
Defective Products
Manufacturers have a responsibility to make products that are reasonably safe. When defective products cause serious harm, we investigate whether the injury was caused by unsafe design, manufacturing defects, poor warnings, contaminated products, or corporate decisions that put people at risk.
Premises Liability
Property owners must take reasonable steps to keep visitors safe. We represent people injured because of unsafe conditions on private, public, commercial, or residential property, including slip and falls, unsafe stairs, poor lighting, negligent security, falling hazards, and dangerous walkways.
