Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- What should I do if I’ve been injured in an accident?
If you’ve been injured, the first step is to seek medical attention, even if the injuries don’t seem severe. Next, contact a Bellevue Personal Injury Lawyer to understand your legal options. It’s essential to gather evidence from the accident scene, such as photographs, witness statements, and a police report, to help support your case. - How much will it cost to hire a Bellevue Personal Injury Lawyer?
At Kornfeld Law, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay unless we win your case. Our goal is to provide you with effective legal representation without adding financial burden during your recovery. This way, you can focus on healing while we focus on getting you the compensation you deserve. - How long do I have to file a personal injury claim?
In Washington state, you typically have three years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim. However, the sooner you contact a Bellevue Personal Injury Lawyer, the better. Early involvement allows us to gather evidence, speak with witnesses, and ensure you don’t miss any deadlines that could affect your case. - Can I still pursue a claim if I was partly at fault for the accident?
Yes, you may still be entitled to compensation, even if you share some responsibility for the accident. Washington follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. A Bellevue Personal Injury Lawyer can help determine the best course of action and fight to get you the compensation you deserve.

"His knowledge of the law, insurance liability acumen, incredible diligence succeeded in gaining the maximum settlement"We presented our case to Mr. Kornfeld late, nearly jeopardizing our right to file a claim, and was the first thing Rob commented on. He accepted our case saying he thought he could help. That was an understatement. His knowledge of the law, insurance liability acumen, incredible industry and diligence, and the earned respect of opposing litigators succeeded in gaining for us the maximum settlement possible. We recommend Mr. Kornfeld wholeheartedly and without hesitation. He is a winner!- Personal Injury Client

"Mr. Kornfeld’s knowledge, experience and determination paid off and I am very grateful."I am very grateful to Rob Kornfeld and his paralegal for the many months they invested in my personal injury/worker’s compensation case. Without his knowledge and dedication, the case may not have gone so well.. I was hit head-on , while working as a bus driver. My ex-employer, being self-insured, cancelled my needed second rotator surgery, deliberately removed me from my job, with the admitted intent to fire me when my FMLA expired, and then wanted to keep a lien on my personal injury settlement. Mr. Kornfeld’s knowledge, experience and determination paid off, and I am very grateful to he and his paralegal, Dawn, for being so tolerant of my fears, anxieties, and numerous emails to them, during these harsh economic uncertainties of being injured and un-employed. I highly recommend Rob Kornfeld to any and all injured bus drivers who face the same self-injured suffering.- Workers Compensation Client
