Personal Injury Law


Wrecked BMWPersonal injury law deals with injuries to a person's body or mind, and the legal rights and responsibilities that arise from that injury. The term "personal injury" is used to differentiate between harms suffered by a person, and damages to property. The most common personal injury cases involve: 

  • Motor vehicle accidents (cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, mass transit)
  • Slip and falls
  • Dog bites
  • Medical malpractice

It is very important to choose the right lawyer for your personal injury case because:

  • These cases can be very complex, involving lengthy investigations and detailed research.  You need an effective, accomplished attorney who is skilled at turning over every stone and building a strong case.
  • Insurance companies know who the good lawyers are.  When a law firm builds a reputation for never taking a case to a jury, insurance companies know that they can low-ball their settlement offers. These "settlement mills" are a bum deal for injured persons.  Jeff and Andrea Burkhart are not afraid of the courtroom, and we have the confidence and skills to persuade juries effectively.
  • Many personal injury cases settle for far less than they are worth, simply because the plaintiff's attorney failed to analyze the facts and circumstances thoroughly, and apply those facts to the law to maximize the available remedies.  Burkhart and Burkhart has a thorough understanding of the details of personal injury law.  You can be confident that we will consider every applicable legal theory in order to maximize your recovery.

Whether it is a fender bender or a serious car accident, a trip on a sidewalk or a traumatic brain injury, when you hire Walla Walla attorneys Jeff and Andrea Burkhart to handle your personal injury case, you are in good hands. You can be confident in Burkhart and Burkhart, because we strive diligently to maximize recovery for our clients, and we do things the right way.
