Washington, D.C. Personal Injury Lawyer

Personal Injury Cases In & Around Washington, D.C.

Personal injury covers all accidents caused by the careless, reckless, or negligent actions of another person, business, or corporation. 

Common types of personal injury accidents claims can include but are not limited to:

Car Accidents

Every year, thousands of auto accidents across Washington, D.C. and Maryland send patients to the hospital with severe and life-changing injuries. 

From head-on collisions to multi-vehicle highway pile-ups, these accidents happen for many reasons and often include the negligence of multiple parties. 

As you face the reality of medical bills that continue to accrue while you try to cope with your injuries in such collisions, you will get better results in claims when represented by a competent motor vehicle accident attorney. 

Truck Accidents

These accidents involve a semi-truck, flatbed, tanker, tractor-trailer, big rig, or other large commercial vehicles. They almost always result in catastrophic injuries and sometimes end in the death of one or more victims. 

Multiple insurance companies are commonly involved as well as federal trucking regulations. 

Because they are usually complex, putting a skilled D.C. truck accident lawyer on your side from the very start can be the best move you make for a successful result. 

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable parties on our roadways. Research shows that drivers do not always look out for motorcycles which leads to tragic accidents. 

Because of lack of bodily protection, motorcyclists suffer some of the most serious injuries, from multiple broken bones to traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and more. 

Our team of motorcycle accident lawyers can answer your questions, determine if you have the right to pursue a claim, and aggressively fight for maximum compensation. 

Bus and Ridesharing Accidents

Many people rely on buses and ride-sharing companies, such as Uber and Lyft for public transportation. By doing so, you place your safety in the hands of another person. When an accident occurs and you are injured, the personal injury claims process can be complicated for many reasons. 

It is critical to know how to proceed so that you can be compensated for your medical treatment, lost wages, and other damages. Rely on Fay Law Group to ensure that your rights are protected as soon as possible following these collisions. 

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians have no protection from harm when involved in an accident with a motor vehicle which makes them especially vulnerable to serious injuries or wrongful death. 

If you were injured or have lost a family member as the result of a pedestrian accident caused by the negligent action of a motorist, you need the help and guidance of a skilled personal injury attorney who can protect your legal rights.

Bicycle Accidents

Bicyclists are also vulnerable to serious injuries when struck by a passenger vehicle or truck. Bicycle accidents are common at intersections and on roadways and are caused by drivers who fail to watch out for bicyclists. 

A bicyclist can easily be thrown from a bike, leading to serious traumatic injuries and even fatal results. 

Our bike accident attorneys can help you determine if you have the right to pursue a personal injury claim for your injuries and damages. 

Medical Malpractice

Doctors, nurses, and hospitals are all capable of making mistakes that could end up harming the patients who entrusted them with their health. 

Medical errors are responsible for both serious and fatal injury claims that can impact lives temporarily or permanently. 

The injury attorneys in Washington D.C. at the Fay Law Group have decades of experience handling medical malpractice lawsuits.

Elder Neglect AND ABUSE

Placing your elderly parents or grandparents in a nursing home or care facility is one of the hardest decisions that you will have to make. 

When you do make that choice, you expect that your loved one will be treated with respect, dignity, and with a high level of care. 

Sadly, nursing homes and care facilities are often understaffed which can lead to inadequate and poor care. Residents can suffer both neglect and abuse, resulting in injuries and death. 

When this happens, our lawyers can determine if you have the right to pursue a claim and can help you seek the justice your family deserves. 

Premises Liability

Property owners and landlords have a responsibility to ensure that individuals who visit their building or property for recreation, business, or any other lawful reason are kept free from harm. 

If you have sustained injuries on someone else’s property, you may have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit. 

You should contact a skilled premises liability attorney in D.C. from Fay Law Group to discuss the circumstances surrounding your accident. 

Product Liability

Product liability laws were enacted to ensure the safety of consumers who buy products in the United States. Our D.C. law firm has used the law to hold manufacturers accountable when selling unreliable or unsafe products to consumers. 

If you have been injured by a dangerous or defective product, call us today to find out if you can file a lawsuit for your injuries and losses.

Our compassionate and knowledgeable attorneys understand the different laws in Maryland and the District of Columbia concerning wrongful death litigation. 

Our D.C. lawyers also understand the devastation that a family left behind must deal with as they try to pick up the pieces and carry on in the aftermath.
