Practice Areas

Personal Injury

Whether you’ve been injured from a car crash, a slip-and-fall accident, medical malpractice, or any other form of negligence, we know how the pain and emotional distress you’re carrying can flip your life upside down. You may be wondering how you’ll manage the mounting medical bills and potential lost wages from time taken off work, but we’re here to help. Our firm fights for full and fair compensation to help you cover medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress after an injury.

Personal Injury

Car Accidents

A car accident can change your life in an instant. With overwhelming medical bills, forced time off work, and the pain and emotional distress that often come with car accidents, we know that you’ve got a lot on your plate. Let us take some of the load off by handling the legal process for you, so you can focus on healing.

Car Accidents

Bicycle Accidents

Since they are more open to the elements and lack significant safety gear, bicyclists are especially vulnerable to injuries in accidents involving motor vehicles. From scrapes and bruises to broken bones and traumatic brain injuries, we protect injured cyclists by securing the care and compensation they deserve after an injury. We work hard to help you get back on your feet and back on your bike.

Bicycle Accidents

Birth Injury

Birth injuries can change your child’s life forever, leaving them with lasting trauma and, in some cases, debilitating disabilities. We help families seek justice and financial support after medical negligence during labor or delivery. Your child deserves the best in recovery and care, and we’re here to help them get it.

Birth Injury

Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries

Brain injuries can be exceptionally traumatic, affecting memory, cognition, independence, and overall well-being. We fight relentlessly for adequate long-term care and the financial resources our clients need after a brain injury. With dedication and compassion, we help victims of such injuries obtain appropriate compensation to help them on their road to recovery, regardless of how long it takes.

Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries

Catastrophic Injury

Catastrophic injuries, like brain trauma, spinal cord injuries, amputation, or organ damage, can impact every aspect of your life and often require lifelong care. We help victims recover compensation for damages after catastrophic injuries, providing much-needed support in their time of need. For serious injuries, our legal team is committed to helping victims regain control of their life.

Catastrophic Injury

Medical Malpractice

Medical professionals take oaths to act in their patients’ best interests. You trust your healthcare provider to create a safe environment and take care of you or your loved one. When their negligence results in your injury or the death of a family member, you have a right to seek justice. At Blaszkow Legal, PLLC, our medical malpractice attorneys are prepared to stand by your side.

Medical Malpractice

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists face serious risks of injuries from inattentive drivers, unsafe roads, and the lack of protection inherent with such vehicles. For riders who’ve been injured in a crash, we help pursue full compensation for their injuries, property damage to their motorcycle, and any emotional trauma that may result from such a crash. We’ll make sure your voice is heard and work tirelessly towards compensation for your injuries.

Motorcycle Accidents

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents, those where a pedestrian is struck by a vehicle, are often incredibly severe, and many result in life-changing injuries and long-term hospital stays. We represent those injured in such accidents, demanding that the driver involved be held accountable for their negligence. Our team is ready to fight for appropriate compensation to cover your injuries and medical bills, so you can focus on your recovery.

Pedestrian Accidents

Rideshare Accidents

We handle accidents involving Uber, Lyft, and other rideshare services, which can involve difficult insurance coverage issues. Rideshare accidents may involve the rideshare driver, other motorists, or passengers as victims. We understand the unique insurance policies and liability issues involved in these modern transportation cases.

Rideshare Accidents

Slip & Falls

A bad fall can cause serious injuries and major disruptions in your life, especially for elderly individuals or those with previous physical disabilities or injuries, but there is hope. Whether your fall was caused by wet floors, dark stairwells, or uneven sidewalks, you can seek compensation for your injuries. If a property owner’s carelessness led to your accident, we’re here to hold them accountable.

Slip & Falls

Truck Accidents

We handle accidents involving commercial trucks, which often result in catastrophic injuries due to the size and weight of these vehicles. Truck accident cases may involve multiple parties including drivers, trucking companies, and equipment manufacturers. We investigate factors like driver fatigue, improper maintenance, and federal regulation violations.

Truck Accidents

Wrongful Death

Losing a family member or loved one is never easy. The loss itself is traumatic, and you are often overwhelmed with calls about medical bills, insurance, funeral arrangements, and more, all adding an unwelcome burden to an already-stressful time. Let our wrongful death lawyers seek justice on behalf of your loved one and the well-being of your family.

Wrongful Death

Diminished Value Claims

We help car owners recover the difference between their vehicle’s pre-accident value and its current worth after repairs. Even after proper repairs, vehicles involved in accidents often have reduced resale value. We work with qualified appraisers to document this loss and pursue compensation from at-fault drivers’ insurance companies.

Diminished Value Claims

Traffic Ticket Defense

We represent drivers facing traffic violations that could result in fines, points on their license, or license suspension. Some traffic tickets can have serious consequences for your driving record and insurance rates. We review the circumstances of your citation and work to minimize or eliminate penalties through negotiation or court proceedings.

You Have Questions

We Have Answers

  • The time you have to file a lawsuit (known as the statute of limitations) depends on a few factors. You can file a lawsuit 1) where the tort occurred, or 2) where the defendant is located.

    In Virginia, slips and falls, auto accidents, and other types of personal injury claims generally must be filed within two years from the date of the accident.

    In Maryland and the District of Columbia, in most cases, the time you have to file is three years.

    The longer you wait, the more chances you have that evidence may be lost, something may be missed, or fall through the cracks. You may also inadvertently do things that prevent you from filing a lawsuit, such as signing waivers or releases. Filing lawsuits is not an easy process, and careful preparation is the key to a successful outcome – it is essential to have an experienced attorney help guide you.

  • Most personal injury cases are resolved before the parties have to go to court. Of those that do not settle, a large portion are resolved after preliminary motions and discovery proceedings begin.

    We cannot guarantee that you will never have to go to court. It is always a possibility. We prepare every client’s case as though it is going to court. But we will work very hard to resolve your case before you have to step foot into a courtroom, and if that day comes you will be well prepared for it.

  • Many things are considered when determining how much a personal injury case is “worth.” Among the most common factors of a client’s damages are:

    • Lost wages
    • Loss of earning capacity
    • Medical bills and expenses
    • Pain and suffering
    • Permanent injury

    It is important to note that there is no exact science to determining the value of a case. Every case is different – just because person X got Y, does not mean that you can expect the same; an experienced personal injury attorney is critical to the correct evaluation of your case.

  • In a word, negligence. Negligence is defined as failing to exercise ordinary and reasonable care. Not all cases involve negligence. If a tree falls on your house during a storm, it may not be due to the property owner’s negligence. If a tree falls on your house because it is rotten and infested and the property owner knew about it and failed to cut it down or support it, then there may be negligence as grounds for suit. Working through determining liability for an injury is something that should be done with a skilled, educated attorney.

  • Insurance companies are very quick to throw small amounts of money at you so that you will take it. Taking money in compensation for a personal injury claim, however, releases them from any and all liability in the future. Insurance companies are answerable to their stockholders, while attorneys have an ethical and legal obligation to fight for you. Insurance companies want to settle cases for the smallest amount of money possible, whereas an attorney is trying to get you the most that you can. Statistics show that clients who hire attorneys usually double or triple the insurance companies’ initial offers.

    As DC personal injury lawyers, we get paid on a contingency-fee basis: we don’t get paid unless you collect money.

  • When an injury accident happens, there is often a person, driver, doctor, company, or other party who was responsible. Personal injury accidents can be vehicle collisions, truck accidents, bicycle accidents, wrongful death, motorcycle crashes, slip and falls, among others. It helps to have assistance from an attorney so that your best interests and rights to compensation are protected. Our legal team understands the law and what victims are entitled to when it comes to their financial losses, medical bills, and property damage. Our law firm has been handling cases for injury victims for many decades, and can come to your aid immediately.

  • Car accidents tend to result in significant property damage, physical injury, and mental stress. Recovering compensation after a car accident involves gathering evidence, advocating for your side of the story, negotiating with insurance companies, and ensuring you get proper medical care. Victims of car accidents are usually overwhelmed at the process of having their claim handled. What we can do is take care of the legal aspects and insurance tasks while you prioritize your health at this time. We can seek compensation for you during your recovery.

  • Premises liability cases arise when property owners or managers fail to maintain safe conditions, leading to visitor injuries. Slip and fall accidents represent the most common type, occurring at locations like grocery stores, parking lots, and supermarkets with wet floors. When property owners neglect their duty to maintain safe environments, injured visitors can seek compensation for medical expenses and damages. Common injuries include broken bones, sprains and strains, head and neck injuries, spinal cord injuries, abrasions and bruising, and knee fractures. Property owners have a legal responsibility to inspect their premises, address hazards promptly, and warn visitors of dangers. When they fail to meet these obligations, they may be held liable. We represent premises liability cases throughout Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland, so contact us if you’ve been injured due to unsafe property conditions.

  • Pedestrian accidents can cause severe physical and mental trauma for the victim and their family. If you were hit as a pedestrian by a moving vehicle, then you have likely sustained injuries that are serious and require extensive medical treatment. We strongly encourage you to contact our team today for further support. When a traumatic incident happens, you can depend on our team to protect you and fight for you from the very first day onward. We can imagine the stress you are under, so do not hesitate to contact us now so we can consult with you.

  • Medical malpractice occurs when doctors, nurses, medical professionals, or healthcare facilities commit negligence with a patient. This could be in the form of a missed or delayed diagnosis, incorrect treatment plan, not performing diagnostics or testing, mistakes when performing surgery, birth injuries, and more. If you suspect that a doctor made a crucial error in regards to your care, then we suggest speaking with us right away. We have a team of attorneys, investigators, and paralegals who are committed to uncovering what happened and seeing that justice and compensation is provided.
