Personal Injury Attorney FAQs
Do I Need A Personal Injury Attorney?
Insurance companies and large corporations are often working immediately after an accident with injuries to start building a case against the injured party. Hiring an attorney who has experience winning personal injury cases and knows what it takes to stand up to those third-parties, makes you more powerful.
Video Transcript: Do I Need A Personal Injury Attorney?
PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY ASHTON DENNIS: Following an injury, that wasn’t your fault, there’s always a natural question that’s asked internally is how soon do I need a lawyer? Should I call a lawyer?
The one thing you want to keep in mind is insurance companies, large corporations, are often working immediately after an injury to start building a case against the injured party. Not to help them, not to get them back on their feet, not to provide them any type of resources, but to simply to try to save money in the long run by collecting information they think will hurt you.
So if you’ve asked yourself, “Is it time to call an attorney?” [You] probably already answered that question internally, that you should and now you’re looking for the right attorney. Find the right attorney, that’s going to spend the time, going to look at the facts and truly understand how this has impacted you, impacted your family, and that’s what we believe we’re very good at.
Should I File A Lawsuit For My Injury?
If you’re questioning whether or not you have a case, the following are important to consider.
- Did the event result in injury?
- Did you seek or require medical attention?
- Are you liable for any part of the injury?
- Was law enforcement present at the scene?
- Do you or the at-fault party have insurance coverage?
Your answers to these questions and further details will help an attorney assess if you have a valid injury case from the standpoint of the law.
How Long Do I Have To File A Personal Injury Claim?
Depending on the type of case, there are various lengths of time that a victim has to file a claim for their personal injury. The state of Washington also has its own set of rules and regulations when it comes to injury cases. It can be overwhelming to understand the law especially in a time of crisis.
Whether the injury was sustained yesterday or several years ago, it’s never too late to consult with an experienced injury lawyer in the state of Washington. Understanding the details of your case is the first step in reaching resolve, gaining financial compensation, and moving forward with your life.
Video Transcript: How Long Do I Have To File A Personal Injury Claim?
PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY ASHTON DENNIS: How long do you have to file a lawsuit in Washington? It is not straightforward, whatsoever. We encourage you not to rely on blogs, or what your friends tell you, or maybe even the attorneys that your family knew or used to know because it’s a complex question. Sometimes the time starts from when an injury occurs, like with a motor vehicle accident, typically that’s 3 years.
However, there are other issues involved following potentially medical procedures that could be a longer time or if it’s childhood abuse, unfortunately that does occur, and the statute of limitations can be almost indefinite, and so we always encourage people to give us a call and we’ll give you what we believe to be the actual statute of limitations and not just what the easy, online answer is.
We get calls time and time again of people believing they have a certain amount of time to file a lawsuit so they attempt to call us right before and say, “Hey, I still have time.” That doesn’t necessarily give the attorneys enough time to prepare a case to file a lawsuit.
There’s no better time than now to at least get the answer as to how much time you have because it may be less than you think. We certainly would encourage you to give us a call. We’ll talk about your specific case, what the statute is for your particular case, and we would be more than happy to provide you [with] that information.
What Is My Personal Injury Claim Worth?
No two injury cases are the same. It is important to find an experienced attorney who puts in the work to learn and understand all the details of your case before giving you a number or making false promises to you and your loved ones. Washington Law Center is committed to results and always has your best interest in mind.
Video transcript: What Is My Personal Injury Claim Worth?
PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY ASHTON DENNIS: Wondering what your case is worth is a natural question to ask. It’s something that all of our clients have asked: what is my case worth? If an attorney is willing to give you what your case is worth over the phone, without meeting you, without understanding the facts, they’re doing you a disservice. Knowing precisely what your case is worth requires a lot of work and a lot of understanding. That’s not something that you can just simply answer off the cuff.
If that’s advice you’ve gotten, we’d encourage you to give us a call because we’ll ask the right questions. We’re going to ask you how this injury affected your life. How did it affect your family’s life? Are you able to work again? How much work did you miss? What type of treatment did you go through? What is the future going to look like? Those are the questions we’re going to ask you. We’re not just going to give you some boilerplate answer that your case is worth ‘x’.
That’s not what good injury attorneys do. They look at the specific facts. They look at how you’ve been hurt, how it has impacted your family, and then they determine how to best approach it and whether that’s through negotiations, through a trial process, but no two cases are the same.
How Much Does A Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
There’s a misconception that a personal injury lawyer costs too much money and that you can’t afford one. Washington Law Center is different. We do not get paid upfront and we don’t charge you unreasonable fees before any work has been done. Unless we get you compensated in your personal injury case, there are no lawyer fees.
Video transcript: How Much Does A Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY ASHTON DENNIS: The question is often asked, “How much does an attorney cost?” And there’s a misconception in that “an attorney costs way too much and you can’t afford one.” We’re different. We do not get paid up front. We do not take a deposit. We do not take a retainer. We don’t ask for your credit card information. We simply are paid based on the value and money earned on your case. So if there’s no recovery, then there are no attorneys fees. It’s as simple as that.
Following an injury is often when people have the least amount of resources. They may be out of a job. They may need to pay medical expenses and just keep food on the table. We let you focus on the things you need to for your family, and we’ll focus on your case, on your specific claim, so that you don’t have to.
Unless we get you compensated, there are no attorneys fees. So, give us a call early, maybe following the injury, and we’d be more than happy to get going.
