PERSONAL INJURY
DAMAGES IN WASHINGTON
COMPENSATORY LOSS
The law permits
recovery of all "general damages" for loss which includes pain,
suffering, fright, shock, nervousness, humiliation, embarrassment,
anxiety, and loss of services to your spouse. These are all presumed
damages which may result due to your injury from the accident but must
be proven. It is advisable to keep a daily diary of your physical,
mental, and emotional state to substantiate these losses. "Special
damages" may be recovered for loss which includes your expenses, medical
costs and wage loss from work which resulted from the accident.
EVALUATION OF YOUR
CLAIM
Attorneys have special
methods useful in evaluating personal injury claims. An attorney will
investigate your injury, interview witnesses, and negotiate with the
insurance company to obtain fair compensation for your total. loss. The
ultimate goal is to ease the pain and suffering that resulted from your
accident by monetary compensation.
LEGAL REFERRAL
If you desire legal
advice, please feel free to contact the law firm of MOGREN, GLESSNER &
ROTI, P.S. We can give counsel on the value of your injury and whether
or not it is advantageous to be represented by an attorney. Remember,
an insurance adjuster may try to talk to your about your claim and may
encourage you to accept the insurance company's settlement offer. Don't
be afraid to refuse the insurance settlement offer if you desire legal
counsel. MOST IMPORTANT, NEVER SIGN ANY INSURANCE RELEASE FORMS WITHOUT
FIRST CHECKING WITH AN ATTORNEY.
LEGAL FEES
Most law offices take
personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis or a minimal retainer
fee. The retainer fee is subtracted from the contingency fee due the
attorney when the case is settled or won through a trial. These fee
arrangements permit you to be represented by an attorney with minimal or
no legal fee owing, other than costs, until you receive an award. If
reasonable compensation for your injuries cannot be obtained through
settlement negotiations, your attorney, after your authorization, may
file a lawsuit.
