Graham, WA Practice Areas

Our Firm’s Graham Practice Areas

As a law firm that focuses on personal injuries, we are ready to get to work on your behalf. We advocate for Washingtonians in the aftermath of:

Car Accidents

Car accident injuries and fatalities are on the rise in Washington State. The Washington Traffic Safety Commission notes that 2022 saw the highest number of fatal collisions since 1990. You’re not alone if you suffered injuries or losses in a collision. We advocate for people suffering from:

• Bone breaks
• Whiplash
• Sprains
• Lacerations
• Deep-tissue injuries

Whether an intoxicated, distracted, or inexperienced driver hurt you, look no further; Herschensohn Law is ready to support you.

Motorcycle Accidents

As a motorcyclist, you have the same right to the road as everyone else. Still, some motor vehicle users don’t exercise proper caution behind the wheel, resulting in serious accidents. If you were hurt in a motorcycle accident, we want to hear from you. Compensable losses can cover your past, present, and future healthcare expenses.

Truck Accidents

With the rise of eCommerce, trucks are a common sight on Graham’s roadways. These motorists must meet strict deadlines when delivering cargo, while also employing safe driving practices. Still, these cases can get complicated because of issues involving liability. Many parties can be liable for a truck accident––and each of them may blame the other to avoid paying damages.

The responsible parties in your collision may include a:

• Truck driver
• Trucking company
• Maintenance provider
• Cargo loader

Determining who is responsible requires a thorough investigation. Rather than trying to gather this information on your own, recover from your injuries, and let Herschensohn Law work on your behalf.

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents include not just people walking and running but also bicycling. When a motor vehicle collides with a pedestrian, there are often serious injuries involved.

These types of accidents can occur when the operator of a vehicle is:

• Speeding
• Distracted
• Intoxicated 
• Inattentive 
• Inexperienced

These types of accidents can also occur because of poor weather conditions, such as snow and rain. While poor weather conditions can cause accidents, Washington motorists must still exercise caution and can still bear liability in these situations.

Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice covers a wide range of situations that can lead to serious injuries and death. Healthcare providers have a high standard of care when treating patients. This means they must act in accordance with their field’s established standard. Any shortcoming could constitute negligence.

You could file a claim against a hospital or doctor if:

• You were misdiagnosed.
• There was an error during surgery.
• You were given the wrong medication.
• Your condition worsened because of your healthcare team’s negligence. 
• You lost a loved one.

If you or a loved one was treated for a condition that has become worse or led to a different problem entirely, our lawyers in Graham, WA, want to hear your story. We partner with medical consultants and other experts who can shed light on your case’s details.

Slips and Falls

Slip and fall injuries can take place in the workplace, at someone else’s home, or inside a business. These types of accidents can lead to serious back, neck, and head injuries.

We have successfully resolved slip and fall accident claims in the past. In a recent case, we secured a $187,000 settlement after our client slipped and fell on government property. Our lawyers understand that these cases involve evidence, insight, and resources. We have no problem building your premises liability case and seeking a fair outcome.

Sexual Abuse

Sexual abuse involves any sexual activity without an involved party’s consent. We’re proud to advocate for survivors of abuse, and we do everything possible to hold wrongdoers accountable. In situations like these, medical bills may only comprise a fraction of your claim. Instead, we build compelling cases that secure compensation for our clients’ pain, suffering, and emotional trauma. We hope to empower you to move forward and get closure.

Workplace Injuries

In Washington, everyone is covered by workers’ compensation coverage.
However, these cases only account for a portion of your lost income, and they don’t offer compensation for pain and suffering.

If another party’s negligence led to your on-the-job injury, we can investigate the accident and hold them financially accountable. If possible, you could pursue a third-party claim and workers’ compensation claim concurrently, giving you the resources needed to rebuild your life.

Dangerous Drugs

Some drugs can be on the market for decades before the public learns of their adverse side effects. Take Zantac, once considered the world’s best-selling drug. It was available for years until it came to light that the drug caused cancer.

Whether you suffered injuries from a prescription medication or an over-the-counter drug, we want to learn your story. It’s tough going head-to-head with a billion-dollar corporation, but it’s nothing our team can’t handle.

Wrongful Death 

We extend our deepest sympathies if you lost a loved one. We’re fully aware that compensation can’t undo the pain you feel. Yet, we find that it empowers our clients to learn acceptance and rebuild their lives. In these cases, financial recovery can cover your loved one’s final medical bills, lost income, and other related expenses.
