Legal Answers
Q. I got ran over in a crosswalk in Seattle was in harbor view for several days and need to follow up PT. How do I persue
A: I am extremely sorry for your circumstances.

Typically, if you have health insurance, that will be your first source to pay medical bills and ensure access to the continuing care that you need. Then, as part of your claim for personal injuries, you will seek reimbursement for these medical expenses from the at-fault driver and his insurance company. If and when you obtain a settlement or collect a verdict from the driver and his insurer, you may be obligated to pay your health insurer back for some of the expenses they covered.

There is also a type of insurance coverage under certain auto policies called Personal Injury Protection that may be available to cover medical and some other expenses. For injured people that do not have health insurance or PIP available and need access to medical treatment, some providers will provide treatment and withhold billing in exchange for a promise to reimburse them for these expenses out of any future settlement or verdict that is collected.

I strongly recommend people in your position seek qualified legal representation early on, as each case has its own unique facts, circumstances and nuances, so there are not universal answers to questions like these. Moreover, in my experience insurance companies vigorously defend claims of any significant injury, and the system is extremely difficult if not impossible to navigate to a good outcome without professional representation.

I sincerely hope that you are able to attain the best possible resolution of both your physical injuries and your claim for compensation for the harms and losses caused by the at-fault driver.

Q. My sister was in an car accident 3 days ago with my 2 month old niece in the car. The airbag did not deploy.
A: I am extremely sorry for your sister's circumstances, and hope she makes the best and quickest possible recovery. She should absolutely consult with an attorney that has experience handling both motor vehicle collision, product liability, and potentially roadway defect claims as soon as she can. She and her daughter may have viable claims against not only the car manufacturer but also against other people or entities depending upon the facts. It is often crucial to get an attorney involved as soon as possible as vital evidence may be lost making some cases more difficult or impossible to prove. Our firm has extensive experience in all these fields, and offers initial consultation free of charge. ... Read More
Q. If my sister had a pending lawsuit and died 2 days before' what happens to her awarded amount
A: I am extremely sorry for your loss, and offer my heartfelt condolences.

Unfortunately, without more specific facts this question is impossible to answer (e.g. your sister died 2 days before what, specifically?). It sounds as if there may be serious time-sensitive concerns so I encourage you to consult with a qualified attorney as soon as possible. We would be happy to discuss this with you if you would like, and I wish you the very best.
