Personal Injury and Accident Representation

Getting strong results—whether through trial or negotiation—starts with having lawyers who know how to litigate. With years of experience handling complex and contested cases, Nicole Dalton brings a level of confidence, strategy, and courtroom readiness that sets the tone from the outset. She doesn’t back down from a fight when it matters, and that toughness gives our clients real leverage.  Nicole Denver is a highly skilled and organized litigation managing attorney, relentless in bringing motions and driving and moving our aggressive litigation strategies forward.

Every case is unique, but our approach is always rooted in careful preparation, close communication with our clients, and an aggressive pursuit of justice.  We also bring sharp negotiation skills to the table, allowing us to push for meaningful resolutions without ever losing sight of trial as an option. We understand how difficult the road to recovery can be after a serious injury, and we take our clients’ future seriously. Insurance companies recognize when a skilled trial lawyer is on the other side—and it shows in the settlements we’re able to secure.

We know every case is different and poses unique challenges and we take a nimble approach, knowing our cases are never cookie cutter cases.  We take our clients’ well-being seriously and we’re not afraid to fight hard to defend our clients’ rights.  We understand the pain of recovering from a serious automobile crash and injuries caused by others and are zealous about helping people who have gotten hurt through no fault of their own.

We know that picking up the pieces of your life after an auto accident or other injury can be scary and difficult. We are here to lend you the support you need and vigorously defend your rights.  Our team handles injury and accident matters such as:

• Automobile Collisions, Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles and Bicycles
• Boating Accidents
• Wrongful Death
• Slip and Fall Injuries
• Assault Victim Representation Including Sex Offenses and Wrongful Imprisonment by Known and Previously Unknown Assailants
• Animal Attacks, Injuries on Property and Construction Sites

We Understand Your Injuries and Your Pain—and We Take Down Their So-Called Experts

At Dalton Law Office, our attorneys bring years of experience working closely with medical professionals to understand the full picture of injury, healing, and pain. We’ve reviewed thousands of pages of medical records—not just for billing, but for the human story they tell. We understand how injuries disrupt lives, how healing rarely follows a straight line, and how real suffering isn’t always visible on an X-ray. That insight helps us clearly and powerfully explain your condition, your care, and the impact on your daily life—whether we’re negotiating a settlement or preparing your case for trial.

We also know how insurance companies try to twist that story. Their so-called “experts” often show up to say your treatment wasn’t necessary, or your injuries weren’t that serious. But we’ve been down that road many times. Our attorneys know how to expose their blind spots, challenge their assumptions, and in some cases, get them to admit what matters most: that you were hurt, you needed help, and the treatment you received was reasonable and necessary. We’ve successfully limited, disqualified, or neutralized biased defense witnesses, and we’re always ready to do it again—so the truth about your injury comes through, and your case is heard on the facts, not spin.

Developing Our Cases with Understanding and Technological Savvy

For injury cases, our team takes the time and energy needed to work the case right. We collaborate with medical providers, consultants, and experts to deeply understand the injuries, how they happened, and what they mean for our clients over the long term. This kind of insight allows us to fully evaluate the impact of an injury—not just on paper, but on a client’s real life—and to clearly explain that impact to insurance adjusters, defense attorneys, and when needed, juries. It’s how we fight for the true value of every case.

We often help connect our clients with trusted providers and specialists, and we give thoughtful guidance to support them in getting the care they need. When a case demands it, we bring in professional investigators and independent experts to help develop the facts and present a clearer picture of the harm suffered. That’s part of how we make sure decision-makers—whether insurance companies or jurors—understand not just the injury, but the human cost behind it.

We also bring a sharp understanding of the insurance industry’s internal systems—how claims are scored, what data triggers red flags, and what documentation moves the needle. We tailor our demands to line up with those internal evaluation systems, increasing the chance of a fair and full recovery. Our firm uses advanced technology to organize and analyze records more efficiently, allowing us to respond faster, dig deeper, and present stronger, more persuasive case narratives from the very start. In today’s world, doing it right means doing it smart—and we’re built for both.

Focused on Full Compensation—Not Quick Fixes

In most cases, insurance coverage is available to compensate for injuries caused by someone else’s negligence.  The insurance industry, however, does everything in its power to avoid paying for damages so they can realize a huge profit margin.  Our team has many years of experience working to make insurance companies pay their fair share.

Fortunately, Washington laws protect people who have been injured by the wrongful actions and negligence of others.  Our team uses these laws to fight for fair compensation for our clients.

Although nothing can truly compensate for a debilitating injury or for the loss of a loved one, we prioritize getting the best possible recovery for our clients. Our legal system has decided that the only way to achieve justice for injured parties is to translate those losses into economic figures. After a serious loss, in the beginning, it can be really hard to measure the impact that the loss will have on a person’s life.  Unlike some lawyers, we don’t push our clients to take quick and easy, low-end settlements.  We work with our clients to find resources to get the care they need while we fully develop their case and build an understanding of the long term impacts of injuries on their lives.

We are Real Trial Lawyers and We Get Real Results

No one wants to look back, a few years after an accident, and ask themselves why did they let an inexperienced or high volume operation rush them into settling early and low, when the pain, suffering and inconvenience had such a lasting impact.

Nicole Dalton personally understands the road to recovery from a serious accident and takes her client’s financial future and well being very seriously.   The Dalton Law Office takes an aggressive and detail-oriented approach:  we are litigation attorneys with a track record of fighting hard for our clients. Having fighters in your corner maximizes your chance of being treated fairly and getting the compensation you need and deserve for your accident or loss.

Whether you’ve been injured by a careless driver, by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, by an improperly kept or uncontrolled animal, or by people or companies that just don’t care, at Dalton Law Office, PLLC, we are here to stand up for you.

OUR ATTORNEY FEES

In matters of personal injury and loss of life, we are usually willing to take cases on a contingency basis. This means you only have to pay us attorney’s fees if we obtain compensation for your injuries or loss.

Don’t let aggressive insurance adjusters bully you into settling your case for less than you deserve.  Before signing any documents, or giving statements to anyone about the collision and your injuries, and before accepting any offers of compensation from an insurance adjuster, get solid legal advice from an experienced, caring and dedicated attorney.

At the Dalton Law Office, PLLC, our lawyers and staff understand the huge impact a real injury can have on your life.
