We Handle Serious Injury Cases.

You’re in a world of hurt. Our law firm can help.

An accident-causing injury can happen in an instant. Dealing with the consequences, though, is never quick or easy. Your recovery may take weeks, months or years. And if you’ve suffered a permanent, debilitating injury, your entire life may change.

If your injuries were someone else’s fault, then the insurance company representing that person or business should have to pay. Unfortunately, that insurance company won’t see you as a person in need of help. They’re in business to make a profit – and too often, that profit comes at the expense of the injured person. That’s why you need a personal injury lawyer by your side.

AEL has been holding insurance companies accountable in personal injury cases for decades. We’re proud of the results we’ve gotten for thousands of clients as well as the ways we’ve advocated to make our community safer.

Every injury is unique, and so is every injured person. We don’t just try to get a quick settlement and move on to the next case. We’ll take the time to get to know you, and we’ll prepare your case with your entire lifetime in mind. Our legal team will consult with experts and carefully review your medical records to understand the true long-term cost of your injury, and we’re adept at finding coverage and combining insurance policies to make sure you are fully compensated for those costs.

Your case isn’t just about money – in fact, we know that’s probably the farthest thing from your mind. It’s about being made whole again, becoming self-sufficient and moving forward after an injury. In Seattle and throughout the Puget Sound area, we fight to make that a reality when people need us most.

If you’ve been hurt, get an attorney on your side right away. Contact us online or call (206) 623-7520. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay us a cent for your initial consultation. We’ll advance all costs related to your case and only get paid when you recover.

Why Do I Need a Personal Injury Attorney?

Hiring a personal injury attorney can give various benefits if you have been hurt due to the negligence of another individual. A skilled personal injury lawyer can:

  1. Protect your legal rights: A lawyer can assist you in ensuring that your rights are respected and that you are treated fairly throughout the legal procedure.
  2. Navigate the legal system: Personal injury law can be complicated, and an attorney can assist you in understanding the legal procedure and properly navigating the system.
  3. Obtain reasonable compensation: An attorney can assist you in obtaining fair compensation for your injuries, which may include medical expenditures, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other expenses.
  4. Negotiate with insurance companies: Insurance companies frequently try to settle for less than what you’re entitled to, but an attorney may negotiate on your behalf to obtain a fair settlement.
  5. Represent you in court: If your matter gets to trial, an attorney can provide competent counsel and assist you in obtaining a good verdict.

Compensation for Damages After Personal Injury

There are numerous sorts of compensation that a plaintiff might seek in a personal injury claim:

  • Medical expenses: Medical expenses include the cost of hospital stays, operations, medicines, and rehabilitation.
  • Loss of income: Compensation for lost wages because of the injury, including future earning potential.
  • Property damage: Compensation for damage to property in an accident, such as an automobile.
  • Pain and suffering: Compensation for physical and mental pain and suffering resulting from the injury.
  • Loss of enjoyment of life: Compensation for the loss of ability to engage in previously enjoyed activities.

How Long Does a Personal Injury Case Take to Resolve?

The time it takes to resolve a personal injury case varies substantially depending on the facts. Some instances may be resolved quickly, while others may take several years. The severity of the damage, the complexity of the case, and whether the case goes to trial are all factors that can affect the timing.

The judicial system in your location, as well as the other party’s desire to settle, can all have an impact on the schedule. Most personal injury claims take many months to several years to conclude, with more complex cases requiring longer. An expert personal injury lawyer can give you an estimate of how long your case will take.

Process of Personal Injury Claim

The standard procedure for filing a personal injury claim is divided into various steps:

  1. Work with insurance companies: Notifying the liable party’s insurance company of the accident or injury is often the first step in a personal injury claim. Typically, an adjuster will be assigned by the insurance company to investigate the claim and negotiate a settlement.
  2. Research your situation: To gather evidence and assess liability, your attorney will research the circumstances of the accident or injury. This could entail going over police reports, medical records, witness accounts, and hiring experts.
  3. Make a demand or begin negotiating: Your attorney will create and present to the insurance company a demand letter explaining your damages. Negotiations will then begin to obtain a settlement that fairly compensates you for your injuries.
  4. File a personal injury lawsuit: If your negotiations with the insurance company are fruitless, your attorney may launch a personal injury lawsuit. This begins the lawsuit process, which may include discovery, depositions, and other legal procedures.
  5. Trial vs. final settlement: If your case goes to trial, your attorney will present your case in court, and the outcome will be decided by a jury. Alternatively, the lawsuit may be settled prior to trial via mediation or other means.
  6. Keep you always updated: Throughout the process, your attorney will keep you aware of any updates or developments in your case and will advise you on how to proceed.

A personal injury claim can be a difficult and time-consuming process. Working with an expert personal injury attorney can help you protect your rights and secure appropriate compensation for your injuries.

How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?

Personal injury costs might vary substantially based on the facts of the case. Medical bills, lost income, property damage, pain and suffering, and other damages may be included in your demand.  Often proving these damages requires expert testimony or reports from physicians. The case costs to prove a case vary depending on the severity of the damage. It is crucial to note, however, that each situation is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to the expense of a personal injury case.  We typically advance the costs of pursuing a personal injury claim, but they will always come out of your recovery. Attorney fees are paid on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only charge you an attorney fee if we make a recovery for you.  If you have been harmed because of someone else’s negligence, you should consult with an expert personal injury attorney to learn about your legal options and potential compensation. Consult with an attorney to learn more about the potential costs and fees.
