Washington law

How Washington law treats explosion injuries

Statutory research reviewed 2026-08-14. Not legal advice.

Shared fault
Washington follows pure comparative negligence: fault reduces damages proportionally and never bars recovery, at any percentage.
Wash. Rev. Code § 4.22.005
Damage caps
Washington has no cap on non-economic damages. The former cap was held unconstitutional in 1989 and the legislature formally repealed the dead statute in 2023.
Sofie v. Fibreboard Corp., 112 Wn.2d 636 (1989); repealed by 2023 c 102 § 5
Claims against government
Washington sets no shortened notice deadline, but a claim must be presented to the entity and suit cannot be filed until 60 days later. The filing deadline is paused during that waiting period.
Wash. Rev. Code § 4.96.020

Directory coverage for Washington is expanding

We don’t have listings here yet — coverage grows state by state rather than all at once. Burn and fire cases are routinely handled across state lines, so attorneys listed elsewhere in the region may still be able to help.
