How to choose a lawyer in Washington

Look for a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers treat that seriously. Find out whether the lawyer knows the local courts and the insurers you may face. Get the contingency terms in writing: what percentage is taken and who pays costs. Ask who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the lawyer's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys in our directory, and choose someone whose answers give you confidence.

What to do after an accident in Washington

Get medical care first, even if you feel fine, because some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and lost work. Then act promptly: Nebraska has a filing deadline of 4 years from the date of injury, so waiting can cost you the right to recover. A local attorney can review your situation and explain the next steps.

Nebraska injury law, in brief

Nebraska gives you 4 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim. The state uses modified comparative negligence with a 50% bar, so you recover only if you are less than 50% at fault. See the Nebraska page for full details.
