Auto Crash Injuries: Real Harm, Real Compensation
We Know the Law—and the Road
At the Dalton Law Office, PLLC, we represent people whose lives have been turned upside down by automobile crashes. Whether caused by a distracted driver, speeding, impairment, or simple carelessness, the aftermath of a crash can bring a cascade of pain, uncertainty, and financial hardship. Our team is here to take that weight off your shoulders and fight for the compensation you need to recover and rebuild.
Compensation is important, and it is the goal of having legal representation when you are hurt. In the meantime, having a compassionate attorney and staff to guide you through an already difficult process can be invaluable. We strive to put our clients and their healing first.
The Dalton Law Office, PLLC is a local firm, with aggressive and caring litigation attorneys focusing on helping real people in our community. We focus on helping people in the Southwest Washington area. This means that if you are our client, you have an attorney watching out for you, talking with you personally and doing her best to make sure that your rights are respected and that you are treated fairly in a difficult system.
Experienced Trial Lawyers Who Know How Crashes Work
Our lawyers know the law and legal strategies and how to use them to your advantage. We bring decades of litigation experience to auto injury cases. But we don’t just know how to argue in court—we study to gain an understanding of the physics and mechanics behind crashes. Our team has studied the way injuries occur in low-impact and high-impact collisions, what happens to the human body in those moments, and how that translates into long-term pain, impairment, and loss.
We Know How to Challenge the “Experts” The Other Side Uses
Our lawyers, often working with our own experts, have successfully debunked bad science that opposing counsel will try to use to sway the jury. Dalton Law Office lawyers know how to question defense and insurance experts, attack bad science, and optimize your chances for a strong recovery.
Insurance companies love to bring in so-called experts to minimize injuries and rewrite what happened. We’ve gone toe-to-toe with these defense witnesses many times. In one case, we successfully eliminated an accident reconstruction expert by challenging the scientific basis of their analysis and then using court rules to force the defense to withdraw the expert. In others, we’ve exposed inconsistencies in biomechanical opinions or forced admissions that our clients’ injuries were, in fact, caused by the crash. We hate to let junk science go unchallenged – and we go after it.
Gathering the Right Evidence Early and Building the Real Story of Injury
The Dalton Law Office team takes an aggressive, hands-on approach from the start. Whenever possible, we help clients document vehicle damage, visit and photograph crash sites when needed, and work with private investigators or experts to secure the evidence that tells the full story. We also collect all medical records, diagnostic images, bills, and reports to show exactly what our clients have been through.
A bent bumper may not look like much to an insurance adjuster, but we know how serious injuries can occur even in low-speed collisions. We work closely with treating providers and independent experts to explain how injuries develop, how pain and dysfunction emerge or worsen over time, and why care was necessary. We take the time to understand and explain every aspect of your suffering—not just what’s visible on paper.
We Don’t Rush Settlements and We Understand the System, Inside and Out
Insurance companies often pressure injured people to take quick, low settlements before they understand the true scope of their injuries. We push back. We understand that healing takes time, and that the full impact of a crash might not be known for months. We don’t encourage our clients to settle early—we build their case so they can settle right.
At the Dalton Law Office, we understand how insurance companies evaluate cases. We know how claims get scored, how they analyze risk, and what documentation matters most. We tailor our case presentation to hit those markers, so that when a demand goes out, it hits hard. Behind the scenes, we use advanced internal systems to track, analyze, and present data in a clear and powerful way.
Standing Up to Insurance Defense Tactics
Insurance defense lawyers are trained to minimize payouts and question every aspect of an injured person’s story. We know their playbook. And we’ve spent years turning it against them. Whether it’s undermining a flawed medical review, revealing the limitations of a defense expert’s opinion, or highlighting inconsistencies in their case theory, we stay one step ahead.
Trusted Advocates, Relentless Representation
Our clients don’t come to us at their best—they come to us in pain, uncertain about the future, and hoping someone will fight for them. That’s what we do. We provide clear communication, sharp strategy, and tireless advocacy every step of the way. We handle the legal battle so our clients can focus on healing.
We fight for full and fair compensation—not just for medical bills, but for pain, loss of mobility, missed work, future care, and every other way a crash has changed a client’s life. That means going beyond the surface, digging into the details, and building the strongest possible case to get the result our clients deserve.
Call When You’re Ready to Be Taken Seriously
If you’ve been hurt in a crash, you don’t have to figure this out alone. The Dalton Law Office is here with experienced, aggressive, and compassionate representation to help you hold the right people accountable and get your life back on track.

Before signing documents, making admissions or statements about the collision and before accepting any offers of compensation from an insurance adjuster, get solid legal advice.
No Fee Unless We Win
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.
We understand what it’s like to go through an accident and to have to deal with the ongoing pain. We’re happy to stand up for you against powerful insurance companies and the other side. We care about your health and comfort and want to give you a fighting chance. Don’t let aggressive insurance adjusters bully you into settling your case for less than you deserve.
