This story highlights the risks that attend even the most peaceful recreational activities— such as boating. Although this particular Seattle-area boating accident was still under investigation at press time, all too often it happens that Washington’s lakes, rivers, beaches and riding trails are the destinations for crowds of amateur boaters, bikers and other operators of recreational equipment that can quickly turn from “weekend toys” into deadly weapons in the wrong hands…

Boating is one of several leisure activities often undertaken by people who are “rusty” and under-prepared, and possibly under the influence of alcohol; the resulting accidents can cause serious personal injuries, even to victims such as innocent passengers on an ill-fated boat or recreational vehicle.

Injuries can leave innocent victims with long-term financial burdens and other needs. If you or a loved one has been injured by the negligence of others, in Seattle or anywhere in Washington State, you should contact a Seattle personal injury attorney for help. An experienced Seattle personal injury lawyer can discuss the available options with you, and work to win the relief that you and your family may need after an accident.

Q: My wife was involved in a Seattle accident with an uninsured motorist, and I am still focused on caring for her. How long do I have to file a claim against the motorist?

A: In Washington, you generally must file your personal injury claim within three years of the date of the accident. Once this statute of limitations has passed, you will generally not be able to make a claim for injuries. However, you should also be aware that if your claim involves a government-owned vehicle or government employee, you may have only 180 days in which to file your complaint. So, as soon as possible after the accident, it is best to contact a Washington attorney familiar with the laws that may apply to your case.

It is important to determine if your accident has indeed caused these symptoms. If you or anyone involved in an accident in Seattle later suffers unexplained pains or other after-effects, you should seek medical attention and consult with a qualified Seattle, Washington attorney to help explore your options for long-term relief.

A: Whiplash is a term used by laypeople to describe a wide range of injuries to the neck and upper back, caused by a sudden strain on the neck—such as through over-extension. These injuries commonly result from car accidents in which one vehicle is hit from the rear by another. The symptoms of whiplash may include pain in the neck, upper back, and shoulders, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet, and headaches. In some cases these symptoms do not appear until weeks after the accident and can lead to chronic pain if left untreated.

Q: My son hurt his back while lifting sacks of concrete mix on his construction job in the Seattle suburbs. His back is so painful that he can’t go back to work. I’m worried because my son’s boss, a small subcontractor on the job, isn’t answering his phone calls. What should I do?!?

A: Back injuries are relatively common among construction workers; that’s why it’s important to make sure that a building contractor has the right insurance before working on a job. Under Washington law, the property owner and the building contractor may both be responsible for costs following a work injury. If the employer isn’t responding to your son’s calls, you should immediately contact a knowledgeable Seattle injury lawyer for help.

Q: I’ve heard that head injuries can be “cumulative.” What does that mean?
