Colburn Law is here to help. Get the justice and compensation you deserve—serving Seattle and all of Washington!
Washington is a fault insurance state, which means that drivers who are responsible for causing car accidents must pay for their victims’ damages. If you are in a car accident with a negligent driver, you could claim compensation for your losses by filing an insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit against him or her.
Drivers are not the only parties who may be liable for a car accident. If the accident occurred as a result of negligent road conditions or poor road planning, you could file a claim against the government agency responsible for maintaining the road. If a mechanical defect causes the accident, such as brake or engine failure, you could hold the manufacturer of the defective part liable in a product liability lawsuit.
Greg Colburn’s path to personal injury law is rooted in personal experience. After a devastating fall left him in a wheelchair for two years, he took on insurance companies and legal obstacles to win his own case. That journey inspired him to fight for others facing similar challenges. Today, Greg is dedicated to helping injury victims hold negligent parties accountable and secure the justice they deserve.

You can collect these damages in car insurance claims as well, although the driver’s insurance policy and coverage terms will limit the amount of compensation you can seek.
Economic damages encompass the tangible financial losses you sustained as a result of the collision, which may include the following:
Non-economic damages involve the physical and emotional pain and suffering you experienced as a result of the accident and your injuries. Common examples include the following:
