Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after a car accident in Puyallup?
Call 911 if anyone is injured, then contact Puyallup Police or Washington State Patrol depending on the accident location. Document the scene with photos and gather contact information from witnesses. Seek medical attention even for minor injuries, as some symptoms may appear later.
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Washington?
Washington state law gives you three years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, it's best to consult with an attorney much sooner, as evidence can disappear and witness memories fade. Some cases against government entities may have shorter deadlines.
