DC legal questions, answered

How long do I have to file a personal-injury claim in DC?+

In DC the statute of limitations for personal injury is typically 2–3 years. Miss the deadline and your claim is almost always barred — talk to a DC attorney as soon as possible.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident?+

DC follows modified comparative negligence (most states). An attorney licensed in DC can tell you exactly how the rule affects your recovery.

How much do DC attorneys charge?+

Most personal-injury and employment cases in DC are handled on contingency — no fee unless you recover. Flat and hourly fees are common for criminal defense, family law, estate planning, and business matters. Fee agreements must be in writing under DC bar rules.

Do I have to appear in a DC courtroom?+

Many matters resolve through negotiation, mediation, or settlement without a trial. Your attorney will handle most court filings and appearances; you generally attend only key hearings, depositions, or trial.

How quickly can I speak with a DC attorney?+

Most matches happen within a business day. Urgent matters — arrests, restraining orders, insurance deadlines — are prioritized and often reach an attorney the same day.
