Can I Still Get Compensation if I'm Partially at Fault?
One of the most common defenses presented by the insurance company is claiming that the injured victim was partially or completely at fault for the accident. Even if it can be proved that you share fault, you can still receive compensation based on Washington's comparative fault law.
With comparative fault, the plaintiff and defendant in the car accident case will be assigned a percentage reflecting how much they are responsible for the accident. For the plaintiff, the court will deduct the percentage they are found at fault from the recovery they were initially awarded. For example, if you were awarded $20,000 in compensation, but 20% of the fault was attributed to you, you would only receive $16,000 in total compensation.

Our Client Testimonials

“I hired Robert Kornfeld when I was in a desperate emotional state due to extreme difficulties in my work place. These were the kind of difficulties that required professional assistance because my rights were continually violated in my work place. I thank god for his persistence in my case. No matter how long it took and how frustrated I got he made every effort to make sure that I got compensated for the loss of my job due to work place management violations. Mr. Kornfeld helped me and for that I am forever grateful.”- Renee

“From the time that I found Rob until my case was settled,everyone in his office made sure I had everything I needed and understood everything that was going on. I was badly injured, scared, uncertain of my future and dealing with other things in my life that were affected negatively by my accident. The understanding, support, (handholding) along with an aggressive and very staight forward approach are things that I know walked me through what was the most difficult time in my life. Rob or his paralegal Mariea were always available for me. My calls were always returned and e-mails always answered. With his "on the ball office"It was no surprise when my final settlement was more than expected. Thank you Rob and Mariea....John”- John

“I am very grateful to Rob Kornfeld and his paralegal for the many months they invested in my personal injury/worker's compensation case. Without his knowledge and dedication, the case may not have gone so well.. I was hit head-on , while working as a bus driver. My ex-employer, being self-insured, cancelled my needed second rotator surgery, deliberately removed me from my job, with the admitted intent to fire me when my FMLA expired, and then wanted to keep a lien on my personal injury settlement. Mr. Kornfeld's knowledge, experience and determination paid off, and I am very grateful to he and his paralegal, Dawn, for being so tolerant of my fears, anxieties, and numerous emails to them, during these harsh economic uncertainties of being injured and un-employed. I am still un-employed, but many thanks to Mr. Kornfeld, I now have the faith I will survive this horrific experience. I highly recommend Rob Kornfeld to any and all injured bus drivers who face the same self-injured suffering.”- Anonymous

We sought justice after facing a terrible ordeal, and with Rob’s unwavering support, we were able to bring a semblance of closure to the things we had to go through as a family. Rob, given his extensive knowledge and remarkable experience in medical malpractice, is, without doubt, the BEST advocate anyone could hope for.”- Medical Malpractice Client
