The preceding examples are of cases in which we have had the privilege of representing the injured victim. The facts are very abridged and provided more as an example of the type of cases handled by this law firm over recent years.
If requested, greater specifics about the cases can be provided but will exclude the client’s identity, and, in some cases, the defendant’s identity, primarily to protect our client’s privacy. Most importantly, with any listing of cases, by any law firm, please note that each case is different and that prior results should not create an expectation on the part of a current or prospective client that the results in the cases above represent any assurance of recovery on the client’s behalf or any recovery of a similar amount. Any law firm’s failure to inform you of such is a violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct (RPC 7.1) of the Washington State Bar Association.
