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.

“When it comes to choosing a good lawyer the ingredients are: knowledge, compassion, work ethic, trustworthiness, and a fair dose of creative craftiness. This last component is the secret sauce that comes from decades of industry experience. Rob Kornfeld’s strength embodies those attributes plus knowing the intricate details of insurance contracts, medical records, and legal rights. What places Mr. Kornfeld in a class of his own can only come from years of experience, knowing the right people, and maintaining a just, but winning attitude. It is obvious that he is well respected by the very gate-keepers seeking to prevent you from a fair settlement. If you require the services of a personal injury attorney go no further, Mr. Kornfeld is your counsel; no hyped up promises or false expectations. He delivers a sound game plan, has a humble approach and a calm station. He under-promised and over delivered and we are deeply grateful for his services.”- Personal Injury Client

“The legal expertise of Rob Kornfeld was evident and the smoke and mirrors presented by the opposing insurance company counsel proved futile. The Arbitrator ruled 100% in our favor and we had 0% liability. The Arbitrator award was reasonable and allowed us to recover our costs and reimburse for medical expenses plus some general damages. Rob’s legal staff was good at keeping us updated when we had questions and responded to my requests for copies of documents and information. Rob shared his cell number so we were able to communicate directly when key parts of our case were coming up. Rob was very frank about potential risks he saw in the case, as well as what he felt was needed to prove our points. He always asked if there were questions we wanted answered during depositions and would help explain things me or my wife didn’t understand. We felt heard, supported and confident being represented by Rob Kornfeld. We have no reservations in recommending Rob and his team to anyone needing representation against in insurance environment that is all about business and the bottom line.”- Medical Malpractice Client

“I don't know if I can leave a review good enough for Neil. I called him looking for legal advice for a relative who has found themselves in a really complicated and frustrating situation. Before I called Neil, I felt completely out of my depth and without any understanding of how to proceed. Neil spent hours on the phone with me and my relative, at no charge might I add, trying to help us get a handle on the situation. Without his help, I would still be pacing the floor and unable to see a way forward. His advice was sound and concise. His ability to deal with complex personalities while remaining calm is remarkable.”- Corrina A.

“I would like to thank Mr. Kornfeld and staff for his professional service. They were able to help me from beginning to end with my case and we were able to come to a settlement. Office facility was welcoming and the staff made me feel at home. I would recommend Mr. Kornfeld to anyone who needs legal services.”- Jason C.

“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
