How much time do I have to file a car accident claim in Washington?

For every injury or death claim, there is a deadline by which you must settle or file your car accident claim with the court, or the claim will be forever barred. This time limit is called a “statute of limitation.”  In Washington, the period for bringing an injury or accidental death claim is usually three years from the date of the auto accident, but there are some exceptions, like claims for children under the age of 18. The sooner following the accident you can consult with an experienced personal injury attorney at Abeyta Nelson Injury Law, the more we can do to help you get a good settlement.
