I am in the county and i am on my own private property, this dog constantly trespasses on my property and is aggressive towards my animals, and sometimes towards my wife and myself.
You are permitted to use self defense to protect yourself, especially if you are on your own property. However, you should contact an attorney in your state for more information about fencing laws and when you can use deadly force to protect your animals which would likely be considered property.
AND IT ALSO HAD HIS FATHERS SSI NUMBER AND MINE NEXT TO OUR NAME IS THAT CRAZY AND JUST GAVE IT TO HIM NO BLACK OUT NOTHING CAN I SUE THEM FOR THIS.
It doesn't appear to be a matter that an attorney would be willing to handle on a contingency basis, whether based on invasion of privacy, or similar tort theories. You could consult with a Washington attorney who deals with privacy-based torts to ask their opinion. Good luck

Before he was able to pay back, my attorney has died, and attorney who took over his files claims he has no idea about the deceased... Read more »
It could be difficult to track down if the attorney did not make a notation of it in the checkbook for the trust fund account that the incoming attorney could identify. And it looks like the incoming attorney doesn't have information on it. Maybe the bank could assist you if they have any records.... Read more »
You have to pose this question to your independent insurance agent, carrier's rep, or their underwriting department. Without seeing the terms of the policy, in particular the limits and the terms describing their operation, it would be difficult to advise on its coverage. Good luck

Washington Post/Editorial Express in the Week of June
I suggest you see if a law librarian at one of DC's law libraries can help you. There isn't enough information there to figure out if it is a case that is being reported or what.

23 year old tribal member involved in accident off the reservation. No insurance, but is a GOV truck registered to the tribe. Who is held liable, non-insured driver or the tribe that's the registered owner?
Generally both. Tribal law governs on tribal land. Take the vehicle outside the rez or national boundary, then the state law applies. However tribe should have some type of umbrella policy.
part of my claim?
Yes. But if it's that severe you should have a lawyer. Contact a member of the State of Washington Trial Lawyers Assn for the county where it happened. They give free consults. If you have wage loss protection that may cover some of this.
I was working in McDonalds. For about 4 months starting in July, ending in October. It was my first job, as a 15 year old.

Sounds like all you have is a workers comp claim. Can’t sue your employer or coworker because barred by workers comp law.
lucky to get to my car or my apartment without being bitten but I don't feel safe in my neighborhood and my neighbor gets aggressive when I tell him he needs to have his dog on a leash. Is there any way I can compel him to keep better watch over his pet?
You can report the matter to the police if he's off-leash on public property, or to the property manager if it's a multi-tenant private property. If the dog threatens you by actually growling and accosting you, you may be able to report this as criminal assault to the police. More details are... Read more »

What state did the accident happen in?

Due to my treatment I also suffered severe internal intestinal bleeding which lead to a perforated... Read more »
A consultation with an injury lawyer who has experience with toxic tort cases could be a good place to start. These are cases involving exposure to hazardous substances.

Workers comp was approved, UW Center for Excellence Occupational Medicine determined Benzene contributed. Why is it so hard to find representation? A guy spills McDonalds coffee on his lap and it's a slam dunk, but LEUKEMIA??? No.
Good for you for looking.
Short answer: extremely expensive to prove in court, and the Supreme Court made it very difficult especially if the problem (leukemia) is something that can be caused by just .....being.
Second problem is the statute of limitations issue in your state.... Read more »
