Maximizing Compensation For People In Kent After A Motor Vehicle Accident

Even when the defendant seems to be clearly responsible for your injuries, you may still need to fight to earn the full and fair compensation you deserve.

What Your Case May Be Worth
Every motor vehicle accident case is unique. Factors such as injury severity, long-term care needs, and insurance coverage all affect your final settlement. While punitive damages are rare in Washington, victims can seek compensation for:
Current and future medical expenses
Property damage
Lost income during recovery
Loss of earning potential due to injuries
Loss of consortium (long-term emotional relationships)
Pain and suffering
