Washington state’s wrongful death and survival action law covers a broad spectrum of legal cases. Thousands of innocent people are killed each year from car accidents, negligent medical treatments, dangerous products, negligent state agencies & corporations, and unlawful or reckless behavior.

Wrongful death claims can involve:

• Medical negligence
• Car accidents
• Defective highway design
• Dangerous or defective consumer products
• Deadly E.coli (food) poisoning
• Motorcycle accidents
• Negligent state agencies involving cases of child services or parole violators
• Premise liability (dangerous/hidden property hazards)
• Product liability

If you have a question about your case or if you think your case has legal standing, consult with a legal team to determine your next steps. People who consult with attorneys early in the legal process are more likely to secure better legal outcomes.
