Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in Washington?
In Washington, you generally have three years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation.
How does Washington handle fault in a car accident injury case?
Washington uses a pure comparative fault rule. This means you can recover damages even if you are partially at fault, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 20 percent at fault, you can still recover 80 percent of your damages.
What types of damages can I recover in a personal injury case in Des Moines?
You can recover economic damages like medical expenses and lost income, as well as non-economic damages for pain and suffering. In rare cases of extreme misconduct, punitive damages may also be available under Washington law.
