What types of personal injury cases do you handle?
We handle all personal injury cases including car accidents, motorcycle crashes, construction injuries, nursing home neglect, and product liability claims throughout Central Washington.
Do I pay anything if you don't win my case?
No. We work on a contingency fee basis - you pay nothing unless we obtain compensation for you through settlement or trial.
How long do I have to file a workers' comp claim?
You must report work injuries immediately. Washington law allows one year from the injury date or two years from medical diagnosis of occupational disease to file a formal claim.
Can I get Social Security Disability benefits?
Eligibility depends on work history and medical condition. Generally you need 40 work credits with 20 earned in the past 10 years. Our attorneys can evaluate your specific situation.
Do you handle cases in Spanish?
Yes. We have Spanish-speaking staff at all office locations to assist with all types of injury and disability claims.
What if my workers' comp claim was denied?
We'll help you appeal denied claims through the Department of Labor & Industries process including hearings before administrative law judges and appeals council review.
