Has a catastrophic injury left you with expensive medical bills, lost income, and other damages? Find out how to get compensation from the responsible party by working with a Washington injury lawyer.
When someone else’s negligence has left you injured, you shouldn’t be responsible for paying all the bills and expenses that result. Unfortunately, there’s a very real risk that this is exactly what will happen if you don’t take steps to protect yourself. More often than not, the best way to ensure that you recover full compensation for your damages and losses is to file a personal injury claim against the at-fault party.
Even then, you risk being taken advantage of by an insurer or opposing attorney. Washington State observes comparative negligence for injury cases, so the other side can avoid financial liability by blaming you for the accident—which they won’t hesitate to do. Even if they do negotiate, they won’t bother with helping you discover all your losses and damages. Instead, they’ll try to get you to settle for an amount that sounds generous but really isn’t.
You can avoid all this and still get full compensation by working with a Washington personal injury attorney from Craig Swapp & Associates. We won’t let you be bullied into a lowball settlement, and we’ll take care of the investigation and negotiations so that you can focus your efforts on making the fullest recovery possible.
Accidents take many forms, but negligence is a common factor in the vast majority of them. This means that no matter how you were hurt, if negligence can be traced back to another party, you might be entitled to seek compensation from them in a personal injury claim.
Your personal injury lawyer in Washington will investigate what caused the accident, who was responsible, and how. By building a powerful case, you‘ll be in a strong position to demand full compensation for your serious injury and get every cent you know you deserve. These are just a few of the accident types that we work with on a regular basis:
Crashes involving auto injuries in Washington, as well as those involving motorcycles, trucks, buses, and boats are easily the most frequent cause of personal injury claims. While negligence often lies with the other driver, an external third party such as a business or government entity could also be at fault.
If a hazard was present on a property you were lawfully visiting—such as a dangerous dog or a broken stairwell—and you were injured because of it, you might have grounds to pursue damages through a premises liability case.
When manufacturers and retailers sell defective products that cause injuries—even when used as intended—they are liable for what happens. That means they can be made to compensate you for every hardship you’ve suffered at their careless hands.
Work comp isn’t always the only recourse available for injured workers. If you were intentionally put into danger by your employer or if a third party was responsible, you might have a personal injury case.
Healthcare providers take an oath to do no harm, and when they break this oath through negligence, malpractice injuries are frequently the result. You deserve compensation for any harm you’ve suffered because of medical malpractice, and we’ll help you get it.
You should never feel pressured to accept what could be an inadequate settlement offer. Even if the insurer or attorney presents the offer as a “take it or leave it” situation, you should always have a Washington injury attorney review it to determine if it covers everything it should.
In the event that it doesn’t, we can negotiate for full compensation. If they fail to present a proper offer, we won’t hesitate to go to trial and fight for your rights—and this possibility is often enough to encourage the other side to take your claim seriously and settle out of court.
The compensation you receive should account for all of the hardships you have experienced because of your injury and accident. Some of your damages will be financial, while others will represent how your quality of life has suffered. Some will be current expenses, and others will be estimated future needs caused by the injury.
Below are some of the damages that might be included in your claim:
At Craig Swapp & Associates, we won’t accept anything less than full compensation for our clients. We’ll make certain that your rights are full respected and will ensure that you always know what the status of your claim is. We’re not in the business of losing lawsuits for our clients. We’re here to win, and we’ll fight tirelessly to make sure you get the justice you deserve. And we’ll do all that while you focus on recovering from your injuries.

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.
My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.
I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.
I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.
My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
