Car Accidents

Car crashes are often caused by negligence. From drunk driving to distracted driving, speeding, and more, driver misbehaviors play a role in most auto accidents. They may not be the only factor that causes a crash, however. When you’re ready to find out who’s liable for your car accident and discover more about your potential case, contact Kode Law. We can guide you on the road to recovery.

Passenger vs. Driver Injury Claims

If you were the passenger in a car accident that occurred in Western Washington, you may also be eligible for filing a lawsuit following the event. Passengers and drivers are held to different standards when it comes to filing a claim after a car accident takes place. Typically, passengers who have been injured in a car accident will have an easier time than most other personal injury claimants, because they do not usually need to worry about proving liability. Passengers may be entitled to the following damages following a car accident:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Pain & suffering

How Passenger Injury Claims Differ After an Accident

Passenger injury claims proceed in the same manner as other car accident claims; however, passengers may submit their claims against both drivers. However, in instances where one driver is clearly not at fault — such as in rear-end crashes — passengers may not file a claim against the driver that is not at fault.

If a passenger was injured in an accident with no at-fault driver, the passenger will likely be covered under the no-fault/personal injury protection (PIP) policy of the driver who was operating the vehicle at the time the accident occurred. In such cases, the passenger’s medical expenses and other damages will be covered by the driver’s insurance provider. These damages will need to be submitted to the insurance provider rather than pursuing litigation in court.

Uber & Lyft Collisions

Uber and Lyft accidents can be as devastating as any other types of car accidents—but claims for these accidents work differently. Depending on how the accident happened and whether you were a driver, rideshare passenger, or another party, these cases can be complicated, especially when Uber’s or Lyft’s insurance coverage comes into play. Victims of these accidents can turn to the Kode Law Firm for help navigating the complexities of these cases and setting them up for favorable outcomes.

Motorcycle Collisions

Many motorcycle accidents are often caused by drivers failing to see riders in time. Unfortunately, that’s not the only form of negligence that can cause these wrecks. And what’s more tragic is that the lack of an enclosed vehicle makes motorcycle accident victims more likely to sustain serious injuries. If you or a loved one has been hurt in a motorcycle crash, Kode Law is here for you, ready to help you hold the negligent party or parties accountable.

Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents

Pedestrian and bicycle accidents are commonly caused by preventable negligence, and they often result in catastrophic, if not fatal, injuries. Whenever another party’s careless or reckless actions lead to pedestrian or bicycle accidents, our Seattle and Tacoma personal injury attorney will fight to help victims secure the justice they deserve.

Bus, Train & Airplane Collisions

Large commercial vehicles can cause serious injury to passengers if a crash occurs. Because of the potential number of injured and liable parties, claims for these types of accidents can be extremely complex. That makes it crucial to work with an experienced personal injury lawyer at Kode Law. Our team is skilled at managing and mitigating the complexities of these cases to help victims achieve optimal outcomes.

Wrongful Death

Financial compensation can’t erase the pain or financial hardship that can come when you lose a loved one. Filing a wrongful death claim, however, can bring some justice and closure while providing essential resources to help people pick up the pieces and restore their lives. Kode Law can provide the support, guidance, and representation you need when it’s time to pursue a wrongful death claim.

Bad Faith Insurance Claims

Insurance companies have a duty to act in good faith and deal fairly with their policyholders. All too often, however, insurers violate that duty, putting profits ahead of ethical behavior. That can mean wrongfully denying claims or seriously undervaluing them. When that happens, Kode Law can help you stand up to insurers and hold them accountable for their acts of bad faith.
