Insurance companies sometimes wrongfully deny or delay valid claims. We represent policyholders in disputes involving:
Washington has some of the strongest insurance bad faith protections in the country. Insurers owe a duty of good faith to their policyholders, and violations can give rise to claims under the Insurance Fair Conduct Act (RCW 48.30.015) and the Consumer Protection Act (RCW 19.86), with potential treble damages and attorney fees.
While most cases settle before trial, insurance companies and opposing parties know which firms will go to court. Our trial experience strengthens your negotiating position and delivers better settlements.
We handle civil litigation in Superior Courts and federal courts throughout Washington. Our attorneys understand local rules, judicial preferences, and jury tendencies across King County, Pierce County, Spokane County, and venues statewide.

Understanding the litigation process helps clients make informed decisions about their cases:
We analyze your claims or defenses, assess potential damages, and develop a litigation strategy aligned with your goals.
Demand letters and negotiation can sometimes resolve disputes without filing suit, saving time and expense.
If litigation is necessary, we draft compelling pleadings that properly frame your case and position it for success. Washington follows notice pleading under CR 8, requiring a short and plain statement of the claim.
Through depositions, document requests, and interrogatories, we gather evidence to support your case and expose weaknesses in the opposing party’s position. Washington Civil Rules govern discovery procedures and timelines.
Strategic motions can eliminate claims, narrow issues, or position the case favorably for trial or settlement. Washington’s CR 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss and CR 56 summary judgment procedures offer opportunities to resolve claims before trial.
Many Washington counties require mandatory arbitration for cases under certain dollar thresholds, and courts frequently encourage mediation. We use these opportunities to achieve favorable settlements when possible.
When cases don’t settle, we provide skilled trial advocacy. We also handle appeals through the Washington Court of Appeals and, when necessary, the Washington Supreme Court.
We offer flexible fee arrangements depending on the case type:
We provide clear fee agreements and regular updates on costs throughout your case.
