Our Car Accident Lawyers in Bothell Care About Your Case

As a victim of a car accident, your priority must be on your physical and emotional recovery from the disaster someone else caused in your life. Many people come to us frustrated and overwhelmed by the lack of support and legal guidance from the insurance company, and they are worried about the future. 

When you hire our Bothell car accident attorney, you can count on several things:

• Aggressive legal representation every step of the way: We care about your outcome. We are not just fighting for a settlement, but the best possible settlement allowed under the law.
• Extensive legal background: With over 150 years of combined legal experience protecting our clients, you can expect us to use that knowledge to build a strong case on your behalf.
• Reliable communication and service are expected: We are committed to your case and its outcome, but we also provide you with compassionate support tailored to your needs. When you need answers, we are here for you.

These qualifications matter because they ultimately define the level and type of experience you have in recovering full and fair compensation for your losses. Insurance companies often do not take you seriously and are motivated to minimize the amount of compensation paid out. With a lawyer from our firm by your side, we protect your rights under the law.

Put a Lawyer on Your Case Now

It is critical to involve a car accident lawyer as early as possible in your case. Doing so allows our legal team to begin working on obtaining and preserving evidence and building a strong claim for you. We can also intervene sooner to protect your rights from aggressive insurance company tactics.

Another reason to act now is that the state of Washington has a three-year statute of limitations. Under RCW. 4.16.080, victims of a personal injury, such as a car accident, have three years from the date of the accident to take legal action. This happens if the insurance company does not provide you with a fair settlement.

Three years can seem like plenty of time, but the longer you wait, the harder it becomes to achieve the outcome you deserve. Witnesses may no longer be available or may not remember key details. Evidence begins to become limited. For that reason, we encourage you to set up a consultation with a lawyer now to preserve your right to fair compensation. 

Why Car Accidents Happen in Bothell

It is not uncommon for a car accident to occur in Bothell, and while many do happen on I-405, it is just as common for them to occur on commercial roadways and residential areas throughout the city. Most often, law enforcement arrives on the scene and determines the cause of the accident to the best of their ability at that time. 

Our lawyers will further investigate the cause so that we can properly assign fault in your case. Some of the most common causes of car accidents in Bothell include:

• Distracted drivers on phones, eating, or arguing with others
• Fatigued drivers, especially late at night or early in the morning
• Drivers intoxicated by alcohol or drugs at the time of the accident
• Speeding or other forms of reckless driving, such as illegal passing or running a red light
• Road rage or aggressive driving

Everyone is in a rush and trying to get to where they need to go. Yet, every driver who gets behind the wheel of a car is making a promise to others to abide by the law to keep all other parties safe. When they fail to do that, they must pay for the damages they cause to others, and Puget Law Group can help.

How We Build Your Car Accident Case

After we discuss the details of your case, we can begin working on gathering all the available evidence to build a strong case. This includes speaking to witnesses, requesting medical records from the other driver, and using expert testimony to clarify any areas where fault is not clear. 

This also enables our legal team to pinpoint all parties at fault for the accident, including drivers, third parties on the road, and even the cities involved. Your claim may include damages such as the following:

• Medical expenses from the accident and throughout your recovery process
• Future medical care needs, especially if you have long-term rehabilitation needs
• Loss of income from missing work, including loss of wages, benefits, and bonuses
• Impact on future earning capacity if you can no longer do the job you were doing
• Pain and suffering-related injuries
• Loss of quality of life
• Impact on mental and emotional health and well-being

With evidence of who is at fault, our legal team works to understand all the losses you endured and continue to endure from this accident. To do this, we speak to you, gathering evidence from medical reports and medical experts, while also considering your health and future well-being.
