Frequently Asked Questions
Call 911, seek medical attention, document the scene with photos, exchange insurance information, and contact an attorney before speaking with insurance adjusters. Under Washington law, you should not admit fault at the scene. An experienced car accident lawyer can protect your rights from the first day.
Washington’s statute of limitations for personal injury claims is three years from the date of the accident (RCW 4.16.080). However, evidence preservation and witness availability decline over time, so contacting an attorney as soon as possible is strongly recommended.
Brian Chase handles car accident cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no attorney fees unless your case is successful. Your initial consultation is always free. There are no upfront costs to get started.
The minimum waiting period for a divorce in Washington is 90 days from filing and service of the petition (RCW 26.09). Uncontested divorces may be completed close to this timeline. Contested divorces involving property disputes or custody issues can take 6–12 months or longer.
“Are family law consultations free?Washington courts determine custody (called ‘residential time’) based on the best interests of the child. Factors include each parent’s relationship with the child, stability of home environment, work schedules, and the child’s wishes (if age-appropriate). Courts require a parenting plan that specifies residential schedules and decision-making authority.
