What Evergreen State Residents Say About Working With Hartwell & Briggs Law Group

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Answers Before You Ever Walk Through Our Door

We know you have questions about timing, costs, and what your case may look like. Our attorneys share clear answers so you can make informed decisions from the very first conversation.

Do I have to pay anything up front for a personal injury or employment case?

No. We take personal injury and most employment cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you owe no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Your first consultation is always free.

How long do I have to file a claim in Evergreen State?

Evergreen State law sets strict deadlines, known as statutes of limitations, for injury and employment claims. Some deadlines are as short as 180 days for certain workplace claims. Calling our office early protects your rights and gives us time to investigate.

Will my case go to trial?

Most cases settle before trial, but we prepare every matter as if it will be tried. That preparation is what pushes insurance companies and employers to offer full value. If trial is the right path, we are ready.

What areas of Evergreen State does Hartwell & Briggs Law Group serve?

We represent clients throughout Evergreen State from our Cascade City office. Most of our cases come from Summit, Riverton, Oakhaven, Pinecrest, Larkspur, Fairmont, Glenwood, and Brookdale Counties, but we welcome clients statewide.
