A trial lawyer’s last journey to the King County Courthouse (for awhile)

On Thursday, March 12, before President Trump declared a national emergency, I walked to the King County Courthouse for a scheduled hearing. In retrospect, it was probably the last journey to court for this trial lawyer, for the foreseeable future. Here’s what it was like to be in court in Seattle. The case The hearing had been scheduled for awhile, a legal formality to approve a settlement for a minor child I represented in a personal injury case. The little boy – “J.” – had been burned by very hot water spilled in his lap during dinner at a local restaurant. (Before you ask, no – this was not a “redo” of the McDonald’s hot coffee case). In this case, the

Pursuing excellence as a trucking lawyer

“Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death” – Albert Einstein I’ve been a trucking lawyer for 30 years. I’ve represented hundreds of people who’ve been seriously injured, or lost a family member, because of someone else’s bad actions. And I’m still learning, and growing my skills as a trial lawyer. A significant area of my law practice involves trucking crashes. (Although some refer to these as “accidents,” we know that most crashes are predictable, preventable collisions—not “accidents”.) Learning with Trucking Lawyer Master Class Recently, I attended Rodney Jew’s Trucking Master Class. The program was presented over three intense days. The attendees were 35 very experienced attorneys, all of whom have handled complex trucking crash cases. The program’s focus was on

Why we don’t say “car accident”

We have changed the language on Coluccio Law’s websites and blogs: here’s why we’re using car crash, not car accident. There is a public health crisis on the roads About 36,000 people died in motor vehicle crashes in the U.S. in 2019. (The total number of fatalities for 2020 is expected to be even higher.) That is the entire population of Lynnwood, Washington. Can you imagine if everyone in Lynnwood—or in Bothell, or Walla Walla—died in one single year? There would be a massive public outcry. We would all demand answers, accountability, and changes. We have all become too accustomed to senseless deaths and injuries on U.S. roads. We should not accept a public health crisis as a series of “accidents” just because we are used to
