Frequently Asked Questions

Does a Washington personal injury lawyer offer a free consultation?
Most personal injury lawyers offer a free, no-obligation initial consultation and work on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay no attorney fee unless they recover compensation for you. Call (202) 335-2600 to confirm availability and discuss your case.
How much does a personal injury lawyer in Washington cost?
Personal injury lawyers typically work on a contingency fee with no upfront cost — usually about 33% (one-third) of a settlement reached before a lawsuit is filed, rising to around 40% if the case goes to litigation or trial. If there is no recovery, you generally owe no attorney fee.
What types of cases do personal injury lawyers handle?
Personal injury lawyers handle cases involving car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian, bicycle, and rideshare (Uber and Lyft) accidents, slip-and-fall and premises injuries, medical malpractice, workplace injuries, product liability, dog bites, and wrongful death. If you were hurt because of someone else's negligence, a free consultation can tell you whether you have a claim.
What information should I have ready when I call a personal injury lawyer?
Have the basics ready, but don't worry if you are missing some: the date, time, and location of the accident and a short summary of what happened; the names and contact or insurance details of anyone involved; the police or accident report number if you have it; photos of the scene and your injuries; and your medical records or bills so far. The lawyer can help you gather the rest.
How do I know if I have a personal injury case?
You likely have a valid claim if another party's negligence caused you measurable harm. Lawyers weigh four elements: duty of care, breach of that duty, causation (the breach caused your injury), and damages (real losses such as medical bills or lost wages). If you needed medical treatment after an accident that was not your fault, it is worth a free consultation to confirm your options.
What should I do after an accident in Washington?
Check for injuries and call 911, move to safety, and let police document the scene. Photograph the vehicles, injuries, and conditions, and collect witness details. Avoid admitting fault, and see a doctor even if you feel fine — injuries like whiplash or concussions can be masked by adrenaline. Then speak with a personal injury lawyer before giving a recorded statement or accepting an insurance settlement.
What should I ask a personal injury lawyer before hiring one?
Ask how long they have practiced personal injury law and whether they handle cases like yours, whether they take cases to trial and their results, their contingency-fee percentage and which case costs you would owe, who will actually handle your case day to day, and how they will keep you updated. Honest answers to these questions help you choose the right advocate.
