If you need help with a pedestrian accident claim, you can count on our law firm. Here is a review from a satisfied Tario & Associates, P.S. personal injury client:

Mr. Tario represented me in a personal injury case against Allstate Ins. Co. After the accident I tried to resolve the injury claim with Allstate ins. co. . Their response was totally unacceptable. At that time I contacted Mr. Tario and asked him to represent me. What a perfect choice! Mr. Tario and his associates worked hard on my behalf and I was awarded an amount well over the policy limit. If I ever need legal assistance again, there is only one choice…..Tario & Associates. – Michael

How do I know whether I should pursue a personal injury claim for my pedestrian accident?

The only way to know if you have a case is to meet with one of our experienced pedestrian accident associates for a FREE consultation. A dedicated pedestrian accident lawyer at Tario & Associates, P.S. will evaluate your accident and injuries and let you know if you have a case.

Our Pedestrian 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.
• 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 the at-fault insurance adjuster to settle my pedestrian accident claim?

An insurance adjuster works for the insurance company, not you. If the at-fault insurance adjuster 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 pedestrian 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.
