How Were You Injured in Tacoma?

Tacoma’s diverse urban landscape—from its busy port to its industrial centers to its network of highways—creates many opportunities for serious accidents. Our attorneys specialize in handling all types of injury cases throughout Pierce County:

Car Accidents

With major thoroughfares like I-5, SR-16, and SR-509 intersecting in Tacoma, traffic collisions are an everyday occurrence. Conditions like heavy rain, congestion around the Tacoma Dome, and the notorious “Tacoma Squeeze” on I-5 create particularly hazardous driving conditions. Our attorneys have handled hundreds of auto accident cases and know how to establish liability even in complex multi-vehicle scenarios or accidents involving uninsured or underinsured drivers.

Truck Accidents

As a major shipping hub, Tacoma’s roads are filled with commercial trucks serving the Port of Tacoma and surrounding industrial areas. Accidents involving these massive vehicles often cause catastrophic injuries and involve multiple liable parties, from drivers to trucking companies to cargo loaders. Our team has specialized knowledge of the federal regulations governing the trucking industry and the resources to conduct thorough investigations into the causes of truck accidents.

Bus Accidents

Pierce Transit, Sound Transit, and school buses transport thousands of Tacoma residents daily. When accidents occur involving these public transportation systems, victims face special challenges due to governmental immunity issues and strict notice requirements. Our attorneys understand the nuanced legal framework surrounding claims against public entities and will ensure your case complies with all procedural requirements while pursuing full compensation for your injuries.

Motorcycle Accidents

Tacoma’s steep hills, frequently wet roads, and heavy traffic create particularly dangerous conditions for motorcyclists. When drivers fail to see motorcycles or respect their right to share the road, devastating accidents can occur. Our attorneys fight against the unfair bias that often affects motorcycle accident cases and work diligently to secure compensation that addresses both immediate injuries and long-term rehabilitation needs.

Bicycle Accidents

Despite Tacoma’s efforts to become more bicycle-friendly with initiatives like the Pipeline Trail and Schuster Parkway connections, cyclists remain vulnerable to serious injuries when motorists drive negligently. Our bicycle accident attorneys understand the unique dynamics of these collisions and have successfully represented injured cyclists throughout Pierce County, securing compensation for medical expenses, damaged equipment, and long-term injuries.

Pedestrian Accidents

From the bustling Tacoma Waterfront to the crowded streets around the University of Washington Tacoma campus, pedestrian accidents are an unfortunate reality in our city. These accidents often result in severe injuries due to the pedestrian’s complete lack of protection. Our attorneys work tirelessly to hold negligent drivers accountable when they strike pedestrians in crosswalks, parking lots, or along roadways.

Slip and Fall Accidents

Tacoma’s rainy climate creates heightened slip and fall hazards at businesses, apartment complexes, and public spaces throughout the city. Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe premises for visitors and customers. Our premises liability attorneys know how to investigate these accidents, document dangerous conditions, and establish the property owner’s knowledge of hazards that led to your injuries.

Workplace Accidents

From the Port of Tacoma to construction sites downtown to manufacturing facilities throughout Pierce County, workplace accidents can cause devastating injuries. While workers’ compensation provides some benefits, these are often insufficient to cover the full extent of your losses. Our attorneys explore all potential sources of compensation, including third-party claims against equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, and other entities whose negligence may have contributed to your workplace injury.

Dog Bites

Pierce County has specific ordinances governing dog ownership, and Washington state law imposes strict liability on dog owners when their pets injure others. This means you don’t need to prove the dog had a history of aggression to recover damages. Our attorneys have successfully represented numerous dog bite victims in Tacoma, securing compensation for medical expenses, plastic surgery, psychological trauma, and other damages resulting from these frightening incidents.

Wrongful Death Claims

Losing a loved one due to another’s negligence is a devastating experience that no family should have to endure. Our Tacoma wrongful death attorneys provide compassionate support while pursuing justice for your family. We handle all legal aspects of these complex cases, allowing you to focus on grieving and healing while we work to secure compensation for funeral expenses, lost financial support, and the profound emotional toll of your loss.
