Ranges vary by claim type. Confirm the date that applies to you with a participating attorney.
Auto system
At-fault
No-fault states often start with PIP benefits. At-fault states usually look first at who caused the wreck.

Local context
Washington State Injury Rules
Washington courts apply pure comparative fault. Your degree of fault lowers compensation but does not wipe out the claim by itself. Rainy weather, crowded highways, and maritime or port jobs around Puget Sound frequently shape the facts.
State law generally sets a three-year window for most injury claims. Suits against public agencies can carry shorter notice deadlines. Verify your dates with a Washington attorney.
Issues that often come up in Washington reviews
01
Puget Sound traffic and weather
Seattle, Tacoma, and I-5 wrecks often turn on rain, congestion, and merge lanes. Bicycle and pedestrian files are also common in the metro core.
02
Maritime and port work
Maritime or port cases around Puget Sound can mix state injury law with federal admiralty questions. We do not file in King County Superior Court and we do not promise a result.
03
Public-entity notice
Claims against public entities can require earlier notice than a three-year injury range. Confirm dates with a Washington attorney.
