What Will an Auto Accident Attorney Do For Me?
Making the decision to hire an attorney to help with your car accident is a big one, and not something to take lightly. Knowing the decision can be a stressful one, at Ritchie Reiersen Law in Pasco we feel it may take some of the stress out of the equation if we help you understand the process that we will go through together.
Your personal injury attorney at Ritchie Reiersen Law will listen to you. As all experiences are different and clients are unique, we will listen to the details of your experience and tailor the case to your specific needs. We will gather evidence to support our claim for damages – evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
With evidence in hand we will file the claim on your behalf and follow the entire process keeping your needs as the central focus. Most importantly, we will seek proper compensation on your behalf.
Insurance companies are for-profit entities and have hired lawyers and analysts to find ways to decrease or deny payments. They will probably make an early settlement offer. Keep in mind that this is unlikely to be an offer for the amount you’re entitled to.
When you have a personal injury attorney on your side, the settlement figures are significantly higher simply because we understand the system and the tactics insurance companies use – and we aren’t afraid to fight for what you truly deserve.
If you have been injured in a car accident and aren’t sure where to turn, call Ritchie Reiersen Law at (509) 396-5577. With years of experience and the dedication it takes to get you the results you deserve, we will fight hard to protect your rights.

Top Six Things To Avoid Doing After A Car Crash
If you find yourself in a car accident, there are a few things you can avoid doing that can help keep yourself and others safe, and can help protect your claim with the insurance company.
- Don’t move an injured person. Call an ambulance and help them stay calm while you wait for help.
- Do not accept money. If you accept money, you may forfeit your right to an insurance claim – even if the money accepted doesn’t cover the damages.
- Keep the accident private and don’t post about it on social media. Sharing details and photos on social media may inadvertently harm your case if the wrong people see the information.
- Never apologize for a crash. This will be taken as admitting fault and can really hurt your claim.
- Refrain from sharing policy limits with the other party. Trade only generic information – policy carrier, number, and drivers license number.
- Never agree to “forget about it.”Report the accident to your insurance and the other insurance company. This will protect you if the other person later decides to file a claim against you.
With years of experience helping individuals who have been involved in car accidents, the personal injury attorneys at Ritchie Reiersen Law are able to use their knowledge and tools to strengthen your case – but some honest mistakes made in the frustration of the moment can be harmful to your claim. If you find yourself a victim of someone else’s negligence, call Ritchie Reiersen Law today.

I wish I would have had this book when I was hit 10 years ago. I made so many mistakes and ended up paying for it with long term injuries that weren’t covered, and the regret of looking back at the compensation I should have received for my car, my pain and my time.
