THE FOLLOWING LIST IS INTENDED TO PROVIDED EXAMPLES OF THE TYPES OF CASES I HAVE HANDLED: 

Pedestrian Accidents:

16 year-old was struck in a crosswalk in Bellevue, Washington, while walking home from a school dance at night, sustaining a bilateral mandibular (jaw) fracture requiring surgical repair, a large right thigh laceration, and traumatic brain injury.

Motorcyclist was forced into a concrete barrier by a vehicle towing a flatbed that was improperly connected and came apart, veering into his lane on I-5 in Seattle, Washington.  He sustained severe knee and leg injuries requiring surgery, as well as neck and back injuries.

Motorcyclist veered off the road to avoid an oncoming vehicle, which causing him to go through a barbed wire fence.  The wire scalped him and caused multiple skull fractures.  He underwent surgery to repair the skull fractures and skin grafting, and was forced to wear a helmet for 6 months until his fractures sufficiently healed, but was left with traumatic brain injury.

Defective Products:

A truck mechanic was working on a large diesel radiator on a platform above him when the bolt supplied by the manufacturer sheared off, causing the radiator to split his head open, requiring surgery to repair a skull fracture.  He was a bald man who was left with a large scar from one ear to the other and severe traumatic brain injury.
