Committed to Your Full Recovery
The Law Office of Matthew D. Dubin represents clients in Seattle, Bellevue, Everett, Tacoma, and throughout King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties. We are dedicated to your recovery — medically, financially, and emotionally. We not only pursue your insurance settlement or lawsuit, but take care of every legal issue, including access to proper treatment and making sure providers are paid.
Our prompt investigation of pedestrian accidents enables us to preserve evidence and retrieve witness accounts while they are still fresh. In building your case, we seek to show that you were in the crosswalk or otherwise acting safely and legally, but the driver:
- Failed to yield the right of way (left turns, right on red without looking)
- Violated traffic laws (speeding, illegal turn, ran a stop sign)
- Was distracted (e.g., cell phone use, talking to passenger)
- Failed to take caution (driving through a residential or school zone)
Successful Outcomes for Serious Injuries
When not fatal, pedestrian accidents often result in permanent, catastrophic injuries requiring extensive rehabilitation, surgery, and perhaps a lifetime of care. We assemble a detailed and expert-documented life care plan that projects lost earning potential and future medical expenses. Our demand package also includes full damages for pain and suffering, lost quality of life, and family contributions.

- One client was hit by a pickup as it accelerated out of a parking lot. He suffered a crushed leg, two dislocated shoulders, and a head injury. We recovered a substantial settlement for this man, who required 6 months of rehab and several surgeries, still has memory problems, and remains severely limited in the type of work he can perform.
