Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

We are familiar with how to effectively approach many types of personal injury claims, from cases involving automobile collisions to premises liability. When you first meet with us, we will listen to your story, evaluate the facts of your case, review your legal options, and walk you through what the process of recovering compensation may look like. 

Our attorneys at Becker Franklin Rovang are ready to represent you in personal injury claims involving many types of accidents and incidents, including:  

  • Car accidents. If you've suffered injuries in a car accident that wasn’t your fault, you may have grounds for a personal injury claim. Such claims typically arise when the accident was caused by another party's negligence, whether due to reckless driving, distracted driving, or failure to follow traffic regulations. We can take on car crash cases of all kinds, including those involving uninsured or underinsured motorists.
  • Bicycle accidents. Negligence is a leading cause of bike accidents, often resulting from a driver's failure to exercise reasonable care on the road. Many drivers fail to notice or yield to bicyclists, leading to life-altering collisions. Our team can represent you if you were injured in a bicycle accident. We also handle cases involving e-bikes and e-scooters. 
  • Pedestrian accidents. Pedestrian accident injuries are often especially severe due to the inherent vulnerabilities of individuals on foot compared to those in vehicles. When a pedestrian is struck by a car, they have little to no protection against the impact, which can result in catastrophic injuries like traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, and internal organ damage. A personal injury claim can help injured pedestrians get the just compensation they need to cover mounting medical bills, lost earning potential, and other damages.
  • Motorcycle accidents. Motorcyclists are also particularly vulnerable on the road, as they lack the protective barriers that vehicles provide. Personal injury claims involving motorcycle accident injuries can be more complicated due to the state of Washington’s comparative negligence laws and specific rules governing the conduct of motorcyclists. We understand these intricacies and can fight to get you the compensation you deserve if you were injured in a motorcycle crash. 
  • Dog bites. The state of Washington’s dog bite laws heavily favor those injured by dog attacks. In most cases, the dog owner is strictly liable for any injuries their animal causes so long as the victim was on public property or private property with permission.
  • Slips and falls. If you suffered injuries after falling due to an unsafe hazard a property owner knew or should have reasonably known about, you may be entitled to compensation, and we can help you understand your legal options.
  • Wrongful death. If you lost a loved one due to negligence, the personal representative of their estate (usually named in their will) can file a wrongful death lawsuit and seek just compensation for your family. 

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Where Is Your Closest Office, and How Can I Schedule a Consultation?
    You can visit our local office at 19307 8th Ave NE, Suite C, Poulsbo, WA 98370. Call (360) 800-3009 or contact us online to schedule your no-cost consultation.
  • Do Your Poulsbo Personal Injury Attorneys Work on a Contingency Fee Basis?
    Yes, our lawyers operate on a contingency fee basis. You only pay for our legal services if we successfully secure compensation for you. This arrangement offers a significant advantage for clients, as it alleviates the financial burden of legal fees during a challenging time. You won't need to worry about hourly rates or upfront costs. Instead, our fees are “contingent” upon the outcome of your case. If we are able to secure a settlement or win your personal injury claim, a predetermined percentage of the awarded amount will cover our fees.
  • Should I Accept a Settlement Offer Without Consulting a Lawyer in Poulsbo?

    While it may be tempting to quickly resolve your case and receive immediate compensation, you should never sign anything or accept any settlement without first consulting an attorney. Settlement offers from insurance companies are often lower than what you might be entitled to, as insurers aim to minimize what they pay out. Without legal representation, you may not fully understand the extent of your injuries or the long-term implications of your recovery, which can lead you to accept an insufficient amount. Once you accept a settlement, you forfeit your right to take further legal action.

    A qualified personal injury lawyer has the experience to evaluate your case's true value based on a variety of factors, including medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. They can negotiate on your behalf to fight for fair compensation that accurately reflects your damages. Additionally, by consulting an attorney, you gain access to resources that can strengthen your claim and provide evidence to support your position.

  • What Is the Statute of Limitations for a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Poulsbo, WA?
    In Washington state, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally three years from the date you were injured. This means that you have a period of three years to file your lawsuit after sustaining an injury due to someone else's negligence. If you fail to initiate legal action within this timeframe, you may lose your right to pursue compensation.

How Can Poulsbo’s Rainy Weather Affect Personal Injury Claims?

Poulsbo is known for its rainy weather, which can significantly impact the likelihood of auto accidents. The prevalence of wet roads can reduce traction for vehicles, increasing the chances of skidding or losing control, especially if drivers fail to adapt their driving to the conditions. Consequently, during these rainy periods, a higher frequency of accidents may occur, resulting in personal injury claims. Establishing fault in these cases may require a deeper investigation into driving behaviors, road conditions, and adherence to traffic laws during adverse weather.

Additionally, the rainy weather can contribute to slip and fall incidents, especially in outdoor areas where water accumulation may create hazards. Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe premises. If a surface on their property becomes slick due to rain and they neglect to address it, they could be held liable for any resulting injuries. Victims of slip and fall accidents may need to gather evidence such as photographs of the scene, witness statements, and maintenance records to support their claims.
