Getting Justice For Injury Victims
If you’re hurt because of an accident or someone else’s carelessness, a personal injury law claim can help you get financially compensated. Lost wages can seriously impact a family’s financial stability here in Washington State. Even with health insurance, the victim’s medical expenses can be astronomical.
Located in Seattle but serving clients throughout the state, DC Law Group understands what the injured and their families go through. Attorney Matthew Cunanan has 15-plus years of experience working closely with clients to protect the victim’s rights and hold the negligent accountable. A skilled litigator, he and the firm work to help ensure the negotiated settlement is fair and equitable or there is a positive outcome in court.
Why Victims Need To Seek Damages
A well-founded claim seeks to cover both current and future medical care. Compensation should also consider the injury’s long-term impacts on one’s lifestyle and earning capacity. Lastly, there is an emotional distress component that recognizes the mental and emotional strain injuries can inflict, offering a form of relief for that suffering.

NEGLIGENCE AND LIABILITY
Although traffic accidents generally do not involve malicious intent, they do result from negligence, which is not particularly criminal but can be harmful all the same. Everyone has the duty to exercise a certain standard of care when on the road. If a person ends up causing harm to another because he or she failed to drive slower in the rain, then he or she should make the victim whole through compensation. You did not ask to take part in this mess caused by a reckless driver. Unfortunately, reasonable settlements are hardly ever offered voluntarily, and lawsuits, in which the victim has the burden of proof to establish liability, are often necessary.
