Questions
What should I do immediately after a workplace injury?
Document the incident thoroughly, seek medical attention promptly, and report the injury to your employer within 7 days. Contact Palace Law before speaking with insurance representatives to protect your rights.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
Washington's statute of limitations is 3 years from injury date, but we recommend contacting us immediately to preserve evidence and meet critical deadlines for medical documentation.
Can I choose my own doctor for a workers' comp claim?
Yes, you have the right to select a physician from L&I's network or request a different provider if necessary. Our team helps coordinate appropriate medical care throughout your claim.
What if my workers' compensation claim gets denied?
We immediately appeal denied claims through formal hearings and appeals processes. Our attorneys challenge improper denials and work to reinstate your benefits through legal proceedings if necessary.
How are legal fees structured for injury cases?
We work on a contingency fee basis - you pay nothing unless we recover compensation. Our fees are typically a percentage of the settlement, with all costs disclosed upfront.
Can I receive benefits for occupational diseases?
Yes, we handle claims for work-related illnesses like repetitive motion injuries, chemical exposure, and occupational stress disorders. We prove workplace causation to secure appropriate compensation.
