HWS Law Group recently prevailed on a motion to strike Plaintiff’s request for a trial de novo in Pierce County Superior Court. Defendant argued that Plaintiff’s request for a trial de novo should be stricken due to Plaintiff’s failure to perfect their request under RCW 7.06.050 because it was not signed by the Plaintiff himself as required under the statute.

Congratulations to HWS Law Group for his recent success in a virtual Zoom trial before a King County Superior Court Judge and jury.  In this matter, Plaintiff claimed traumatic carpal tunnel syndrome as a result of a significant rear end motor vehicle accident where Plaintiff was pushed into the vehicle in front of him and airbags deployed while he was firmly gripping the steering wheel preparing for impact.

Congratulations to HWS Law Group, Kelsey Shewbert and Robert Parker for successfully arguing that the jury should be allowed to allocate fault to a medical provider for subsequent malpractice of after treating the Plaintiff after a pedestrian vs. automobile collision.

The Washington Court of Appeals Upholds Washington’s Statute of Repose. Congratulations to HWS Partner Brandon Smith and Senior Associate Jimmy Meeks, who recently scored a big win in Division I of the Washington Court of Appeals! This decision is not only a win
for our client, but a success for construction companies and insurance carriers statewide.
