If you need help with a boating accident claim, you can count on our law firm. Here is a review from a satisfied Tario & Associates, P.S. boating accident client:
I had a problem with a covered claim with my boat marine insurance company. After almost two years of attempting to resolve the claim and settlement amount on my own, I finally decided to hire a lawyer to deal with my own Insurance company. I was referred to Tario & Associates from a friend. Mr. Tario reviewed the case, all evidence and reports, and my policy. Once Mr. Tario contacted my insurance company they immediately stopped dragging on and playing the games I had previously dealt with for almost two years. Mr. Tario was able to get the settlement amount I should have received from the beginning from my own insurance company.
How do I know whether I should pursue a boating accident claim?
The only way to know if you have a case is to meet with one of our experienced boating accident associates for a FREE consultation. If you have a case, our dedicated personal injury lawyers will walk you through your claim and fight for the compensation you deserve.
Our boating accident lawyer will:
- Examine every legal angle and piece of evidence available to ensure that you have a strong case against the insurance company.
- Handle pre-trial investigation.
- Gather and disclose medical records and depositions of witnesses.
- Work with your medical providers to ensure that medical bills are paid.
- Advise you about what to do with your damaged boat or on the fair value of your boat if it was totaled.
- Fight to get you every dollar you are entitled to in a fair settlement with the appropriate insurance agency, even if that means going to court or working through mediation or arbitration.
Should I work with my insurance company to settle my boating injury claim?
An insurance adjuster works for the insurance company, not you. If your insurance company has already presented you with a proposed settlement, you need to know whether it is fair, if your claim is worth more, or if you should hire an attorney to force the insurance company to pay you the full and fair compensation you deserve. During your initial free consultation we can help you determine the best way to proceed. It is not unusual for our attorneys to be able to achieve monetary recoveries five to twenty times what an insurance company has offered.
How much do I have to pay to pursue a boating accident claim?
There are no upfront costs or fees paid by our clients to pursue an injury claim; we provide representation on a contingency fee basis for personal injury cases. While you will not incur any attorney fees if you do not win your case, Washington State law requires clients to reimburse the law firm for out-of-pocket expenses. Our firm advances out-of-pocket costs for our injury clients and does not require our clients to pay any of these costs up front. When cases are concluded with a monetary recovery, our firm is repaid for the out-of-pocket costs we have advanced with a percentage of the settlement.
