Washington State Law

What Every WA Accident Victim Should Know

Washington's injury laws work differently than other states — here's what matters for your claim.

3-Year Statute of Limitations

Under RCW 4.16.080, most Washington personal injury claims must be filed within 3 years of the accident date. Miss the deadline, and you could lose your right to compensation entirely.

Pure Comparative Negligence

Even if you were partially at fault, Washington law still allows you to recover compensation — reduced by your percentage of responsibility. Many accident victims don't realize they still qualify.

PIP & Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Washington doesn't require Personal Injury Protection (PIP), but if you have it — or the at-fault driver was uninsured — you may have additional avenues for recovery.
