Rebuilding After a Traumatic Pedestrian Crash
Pedestrians have completely zero protection when struck by a multi-ton passenger vehicle or commercial truck, often resulting in catastrophic, life-altering injuries. Right now, you are likely forced to navigate intense physical pain, extreme emotional trauma, and an overwhelming wave of sudden medical debt.
Dealing with uncooperative insurance companies should never fall on your shoulders while you are trying to heal. Our dedicated legal team is ready to step in as your legal shield, taking over the stress so you can take a deep breath and focus entirely on your physical recovery.
You Pay Absolutely Nothing Unless We Win Your Case
When your household bills are stacking up and your severe injuries keep you away from your job, worrying about costly upfront attorney fees is the last thing you deserve.
That is why Craig Swapp & Associates operates on a strict contingency fee model—meaning you owe us absolutely nothing out-of-pocket unless we successfully secure a financial settlement check on your behalf.
We manage every single aspect of your pedestrian accident recovery process so you don’t have to:
- Stop the harassment: We take over all direct communication, blocking insurance adjusters from badgering you for recorded statements while you recover.
- Secure maximum compensation: We aggressively pursue damages for your immediate medical treatments, future surgeries, long-term physical therapy, and lost income.
- Identify all available insurance: We dig into the driver’s liability policy, your own personal injury protection coverage, and uninsured motorist policies to maximize your payout.
- Hold reckless motorists accountable: We target distracted drivers, speeding vehicles, or those failing to yield the right-of-way at intersections and crosswalks.
Protecting Your Rights Under Strict Washington Insurance Laws
Washington laws present unique challenges for injured pedestrians that require immediate, strategic legal intervention:
- The 3-year deadline: Under RCW 4.16.080, Washington grants a strict three-year window from the exact date of the crash to file a personal injury claim. Insurance adjusters will deliberately prolong your case under the guise of “helping” you, hoping you run out the clock so your right to any compensation is permanently lost.
- The crosswalk and fault trap: Defense attorneys heavily exploit Washington’s pure comparative fault system. They will desperately look for any excuse—such as claiming you were jaywalking, distracted by a phone, or wearing dark clothing—to twist your statements, shift a percentage of blame onto you, and drastically reduce your final settlement payout.
Acting immediately allows our team to preserve vital physical scene evidence, secure local traffic or business surveillance videos, and lock down fresh witness statements before they disappear.
Your Path to Full Financial Payout Starts Right Here
Don’t allow a careless driver’s reckless negligence to destroy your health, your mobility, or your family’s financial security. Taking back control of your life is simple, and you do not have to carry this heavy burden alone.
