We hear this question all the time, and the answer surprises a lot of people: most personal injury cases, including ours, are handled on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we win your case. There's no risk to finding out whether you have a claim. Ask us anything in the comments or call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

Nearly 1 in 6 drivers in Washington is uninsured, so what happens if the person who hits you doesn't have coverage? If you carry Underinsured/Uninsured Motorist (UIM/UM) coverage on your own policy, you may still be able to recover compensation, even though the at-fault driver has none. Many people don't realize this coverage exists until they need it. Call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

Homecoming games, dances, and after-parties are in full swing across Pierce County this month, and that often means more teen drivers on the road later at night. Inexperience, distraction, and peer passengers are some of the biggest risk factors for teen drivers. Parents, now's a good time to revisit the rules of the road with your teen. If your family has been affected by a crash involving a young driver, the Law Offices of Michael Clark are here to help. Call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

One of the most common questions we hear: "How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?" In most cases, Washington's statute of limitations gives you three years from the date of the accident, but there are exceptions that can shorten that window significantly, especially in claims against government entities. Waiting too long can cost you your entire case. Ask us in the comments or call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

Think you can't file a claim because the accident was partly your fault? In Washington, that's not necessarily true. Washington follows a "pure comparative negligence" rule, meaning you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault, your compensation is simply reduced by your percentage of fault. Many people don't realize this and walk away from a valid claim. Call 253.499.7844 or visit our website for a free consultation

This week is National Fire Prevention Week, a great time to recognize the Tacoma Fire Department and first responders across Pierce County who show up for our community every single day. Beyond fire safety, these are often the same responders who arrive first at the scene of a serious car accident, and their quick work can make all the difference. We're grateful for everything they do. Tag a first responder you're thankful for in the comments.

After an accident, it's common for the other driver's insurance company to call you directly, sometimes within a day or two. You are not required to give them a recorded statement, and anything you say can be used to reduce or deny your claim. It's okay to politely decline and refer them to your attorney. If you've been contacted by an insurance adjuster after a crash and aren't sure what to say, drop your question in the comments; we're happy to help. Or call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

As leaves start to fall and sidewalks, stairways, and parking lots get slick with moisture and debris, slip-and-fall accidents tend to rise across Western Washington. Property owners have a legal responsibility to keep walkways reasonably safe, whether that means clearing leaves, fixing uneven pavement, or addressing poor lighting. A fall that seems minor can lead to broken bones, head injuries, or long recovery times. If you've been hurt in a slip-and-fall on someone else's property, the Law Offices of Michael Clark can help you determine whether you have a claim. Call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

Before wet weather fully sets in, construction crews across Tacoma and Pierce County are working to finish road projects, and that means more work zones, lane shifts, and flaggers directing traffic. Distracted or impatient drivers put both workers and other motorists at serious risk in these areas. Washington law requires reduced speeds and extra caution in marked work zones. If you've been injured in a work zone crash, whether as a driver, passenger, or construction worker, the Law Offices of Michael Clark are here to help you pursue the compensation you deserve. Call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.

As hunting season opens across Washington, more ATVs, trucks, and trailers are on rural roads and forest access routes throughout the state. ATV accidents can cause severe injuries, and many crashes happen because a vehicle is poorly maintained, improperly loaded, or driven by someone without proper training. Whether you're a hunter, a passenger, or another driver sharing the road, it pays to be cautious this season. If you or someone you love has been injured in an ATV or off-road vehicle accident, the Law Offices of Michael Clark can help you understand your options. Call 253.499.7844 for a free consultation.
