Liability Overview
Liability Considerations in Seattle
Seattle-area residents near EtO sterilization facilities benefit from Washington's pure comparative fault system, which allows recovery regardless of the plaintiff's percentage of fault — more favorable than the 50% or 51% bar rules in many states. Washington's 3-year statute of limitations from diagnosis provides a reasonable filing window. Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center and UW Medicine provide proximity to expert oncology testimony on environmental carcinogen exposure.
