Did you injure yourself in a slip and fall accident at Lumen Field, Northgate Station, or any other private business or public place in Seattle? If so, you might qualify for financial compensation that could help you pay for any expense related to the accident.
If you need a Seattle slip and fall lawyer, look no further than Van Law Firm. We have two offices in Washington ready to help victims of personal injuries. So, don’t let the liable parties get off scot-free for expenses they caused. Our team can determine your case’s value and help you fight for the compensation you need to maintain your financial health.
What a Slip and Fall Case Could Help You Pay For
You can pursue compensation for any expense incurred because of your fall. For example, if you require regular doctor’s visits to treat your injury, you could include the cost of those visits in your compensation request.
Recoverable Damages
Recoverable damages is the legal term for any loss the accident caused for which we would try to recover compensation.
These aren’t limited to medical bills with a specific dollar amount to be paid. We could also recoup any income you lost while laid up by your injury, including bonuses, retirement contributions, and promotions.
We may also seek compensation for any mental distress that the accident caused you, including:
- Pain and suffering
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Loss of enjoyment of life

Does It Matter Where My Slip and Fall Injury Occurred?
No, you can seek damages from the property owner, whether a private party or a government agency. For example, the business owner might be liable for your injuries if you fell at a private business.
However, if your slip and fall accident happened at Woodland Park Zoo or another publicly owned facility, you would file suit against the governing agency.
Does There Need to Be Negligence to File a Lawsuit?
Most personal injury lawsuits arise from negligence. For example, suppose you fell on a wet or uneven surface that an employee knew about but failed to put up a sign to alert you. Thus, the business failed to meet its legal obligation to protect its customers from a known harm.
However, there are cases where a private business had liability for slip and fall damages even when it did not act negligently. Our Seattle slip and fall injury attorneys can explain more during a free consultation.

Our firm has faced down insurance adjusters and defense attorneys to fight for the compensation our clients deserve for crushing medical bills they had no fault in incurring.

We’re always available to answer questions. Moreover, we pride ourselves on going the extra mile to make our services more convenient. Thus, if you can’t come into the office for a free consultation, we’ll come to you anywhere in the Seattle area.

How Much does a Slip and Fall Lawyer Cost?
Slip and fall accident victims facing mounting medical bills often worry about the additional cost of legal representation. However, Van Law Firm eliminates this stress by offering our services on contingency.
Thus, if we don’t procure compensation through an insurance settlement or win your case in court, you don’t pay any attorney’s fees.
In addition, your initial consultation is free, and you’re under no obligation to hire us after we’ve sat down to discuss your case. So, there’s no risk in speaking to the Van Law Firm team about your slip and fall accident.
Washington Statutes of Limitations Relating to Slip and Fall Cases
If you sustained an injury in a slip or fall accident and want to file a personal injury suit, you have three years to do so, according to RCW § 4.16.080.
This deadline means three years from when the accident occurred, not from when you discovered your injury or most recently paid a medical bill.
You also have three years to file a wrongful death case if your loved one died from their slip and fall injury.
