Philosophy

Attorney Richard Washington’s mission is to provide the greater Philadelphia area with the highest standard of legal and ethical representation and to provide access to the justice system for those in need of representation.

The firm exists to provide access to the justice system for those in need of representation.

When you are injured remember these rules:

Call an attorney immediately!

Get your lawyer on the case immediately while the facts and evidence are fresh. Don't wait until hours, days or even weeks pass until you get a lawyer.

Get your lawyer before you talk to anyone.

Do not discuss money, payment of money, settlement, injury, value or anything else involving money.

Do not permit yourself to be tape recorded.

Do not discuss who is responsible.

Do not accept any money to settle your claim.

Don't make any written statements for any insurance company, property owner, landlord or other individual.

Don't give any oral statements. It is generally acceptable to provide a brief outline of how you were injured at the hospital so long as the injury did not take place at the hospital.

Don't sign any documents. It is generally acceptable to sign an admission paper at a hospital so long as the injury did not take place at the hospital.
