About

After working at a traditional law firm for 16 years, and after the birth of his daughter Lauren, Sam decided to transform his practice. He is committed to providing the best possible legal representation without all of the trapping of a traditional law firm. Sam and his paralegal Alisha work primarily out of their homes. He always made a lot of house calls for client meetings anyway. Working from home simply provided additional opportunities to take care of his family as well as his clients.Sam’s practice used to consist of business litigation, tax advisory, and corporate formation practice. He found that work unrewarding, whereas representing injured persons felt right. Each case is an opportunity to help someone who is hurting, provide information and clarity, take stress out of people’s lives, and allow the healing process to be the primary focus. Insurance companies are trying to take advantage of people every day – Sam is the pushback within the system.Sam attended Federal Way High School, Linfield college where he has bachelors of arts degrees in mathematics and philosophy, and University of Washington School of Law.Sam’s practice currently includes personal injury claim (including car accidents, premises liability cases, medical malpractice, and chemical exposure cases), representing health care providers against insurance companies (reimbursement issues, Regence and Premera audits) or related Department of Health complaints, and some general civil litigation and advisory work (landlord-tenant disputes, contract disputes).Sam regularly teaches his continuing legal education classes to other lawyers – both instructing on personal injury law and strategies and procedures related to personal injury litigation. His courses include: How to Litigate Your First Jury Trial, Subrogation, and Mandatory Arbitration Strategies. He brings special expertise in the application of courtroom technology to advocacy, developing innovative approaches to the cost-effective representation of his clients.Sam works on small cases and large cases. Sam completed a ten-week jury trial in the case Bradford, et al., v. McDonnell Douglas Corporation, AlliedSignal, Inc. in King County Superior Court in which he represented twenty-six flight attendants for claims of toxic chemical exposures aircraft. He routinely tries jury cases and presents dozens of case in mandatory arbitration.

I had something very bizarre something that no one has seen before. Most attorneys literally said they have never seen anything like it even looking at the police report ect. Basically witnessing a very serious car accident on the freeway where a single car accident occurred. She rolled her jeep five times. The driver was driving negligently 40 in a 70 when I passed her. I then was at least 30 yards in front of her when I saw her in the rear view mirror……she started waving her arms freaking out mad that I or that someone had passed her as if we were out of line going the actual speed limit. Next thing I see she jerked her steering wheel (not sure why, possibly to go around me because she was mad or because she wasn’t paying attention I will never know why ) but she jerked it hard where she then literally went sideways across all of I5 in Mt vernon wa. I was still a good 30 plus yards in front when I saw her fish tail again literally went sideways across multiple lanes her car then went up in the air and rolled at least four times. It was a one car accident she was 100% at fault per Progressive and the police. All witnesses stated I did nothing nor was I even part of this. The police never even asked for my ID just a witness statement. Three months later however she found an attorney and found a way to blame it on me and put it on somebody pretty much through insurance fraud. Progressive didn’t investigate so she came after me and they paid her out. We both had progressive insurance and they neglected to do any kind of investigation since it was a one car accident. There was video coverage at multiple buildings they chose not to pull up when it was available to progressive one being my husbands own employer in which the accident happened in front. I was only a witness. Nothing in the police report should’ve pend this nor did it on anyone except for the driver. She was driving negligently and with a jeep that was not even legal to be on the freeway. Conveniently they waited three months to figure out somebody to blame just enough time where they thought all the video evidence was gone. Since we both had Progressive and they didn’t investigate properly they paid out my policy limits Which greatly impacted me in so many ways mostly mentally and emotionally but when you have the lowest limits Progressive threw me under the bus because they didn’t properly investigate and the driver clearly found a loophole and they threw a Hail Mary and got a small pay out Most attorneys truly were honest and said they’ve never seen anything like this it greatly affected me mentally emotionally and now I have a not at fault accident on my record and sustained a huge amount of mental distress. Attorneys didn’t care and couldn’t help Sam completely took the time to actually care about another human being and gave me advice and hopefully the power to be able to move on from this tragic unfair accident which will stay on my driving record even though I was simply a witness. Lesson learned I will never pull over for an accident again. I legally didn’t have to but honestly Sam what a great guy. What a great quality that somebody actually cared even though it was not a case that he would be able to do much with he definitely cared and explained things and offered to take a look at any paperwork I need to sign off on since Progressive is having to offer me a very small settlement since I apparently was in an accident they apparently need to be the ones to pay for my mental health and medical bill since I had just had a serious foot surgery when I was on the side of the freeway for hours after stopping as a good Samaritan. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through being accused of something that is nothing but insurance fraud. Anyway TMI but hey thank you Sam you’re a great guy and I will forever appreciate you. Anyone would be very lucky to have you on their side.

I can't sing Sam and his team's praises enough. After suffering from injuries from multiple accidents in a very short time I knew my case would be complicated and I needed to be represented. I am so thankful I chose Sam's firm to represent my case. Sam, James and their team advocated for me and worked diligently with the insurance companies to ensure that I was able to get the medical attention I needed. They went above and beyond to make the whole process feel smooth and take away any stress or anxiety I had about my bills and my case. James managed the majority of my case and lead the arbitration for my case. He was very well prepared and was calm, clear and compelling. I believe I got the best possible outcome for my case and I am so grateful. They kept me informed during the whole process, were always available to answer any question I had, and they always treated me with kindness. I never felt like just a case, I felt like they were fully invested in my wellbeing. I would highly recommend them.

At every point in this long endeavor, I've been so glad that I worked with Sam Elder and his team. Sam and Keri took such good care of me in my bike collision case. I'm grateful for their support and guidance because it let me focus on the difficult task of healing and finding wellness without the distraction and stress of handling growing stacks of paperwork. Before I was referred to Sam from a friend, I was nervous about having to negotiate with an insurance company and navigate an unfamiliar system. That all changed after my first meeting with Sam and Keri because I knew I was in the hands of a professional team who truly emanated the values I had read about on their site: Honest, Responsive, Innovative, and Ethical. Thank you so much to Sam and Keri and your whole team for helping me!

Sam is the best attorney in the region. He is responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, acts from integrity and high professionalism and will always do right by you. I really appreciated his honesty and transparency in my situation and for providing education, perspective, and options for me to evaluate my case and make the best decision for me. I trust him and have referred several friends to Sam and his team. I felt Sam went above and beyond not only in providing exceptional service but in making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process, keeping me informed in a timely manner, and acting in my best interest at all times. He is worth investing in to help yourself get the best outcome possible for your situation. Can't recommend enough! Thank you, Sam!

Mr. Elder has vast experience and knowledge of the court dynamics along with insights to the overpowering processes that insurance companies will pitch at you. He was quick to adjust to the changing landscape in any developments that occurred throughout my case, and was able to leverage situations at certain points in order to accomplish the best result for me. He was very hands on proactive in dealing with all issues in the case. He did not feel like just a representative on my behalf but a true advocate for my rights and justice. He helped relieve an enormous stress out of my life, rather than having to deal with the insurance company myself. He knows who can physically and mentally aid your recovery no matter what the situation and understands how to best help people dealing with traumas due to injuries. Sam treats his clients with dignity and respect and personally cares for their well-being. I highly recommend seeking Mr. Elder to at least discuss and then hopefully handle your case.

Sam really stuck by me. It took six years to resolve a car accident injury and Sam could not have been kinder, more helpful, more patient and more knowledgeable. Sam is the real deal. I can’t say enough good things about him. He really cares.

Sam helped us after a car accident last year. He is very attentive and kept us informed all through the settlement process. His knowledge and experience in personal injury law helped us from aggressive insurance company settler. His emails are especially well written. It is very hard to find any lawyer with such dedication to clients interest.

While insurance company wanted to close my case with very small amount of settlement $, Sam worked very hard for my case even though it looked simple and not serious car accident from outside, he tried to understand how much suffer i'd been through mentally as well as physical pain. I believed I deservedon't more than what insurance company offered, and I was saved by Sam, it ended up with good amount of $ that I could finally accept. Trust him and you will be satisfied with his hard work for sure. Thank you again Sam!

I felt Sam went above and beyond not only in providing exceptional service but in making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process, keeping me informed in a timely manner, and acting in my best interest at all times. He is worth investing in to help yourself get the best outcome possible for your situation. Can't recommend enough! Thank you, Sam!

Mr. Elder has vast experience and knowledge of the court dynamics along with insights to the overpowering processes that insurance companies will pitch at you. He was quick to adjust to the changing landscape in any developments that occurred throughout my case, and was able to leverage situations at certain points in order to accomplish the best result for me. He was very hands on proactive in dealing with all issues in the case. He did not feel like just a representative on my behalf but a true advocate for my rights and justice. He helped relieve an enormous stress out of my life, rather than having to deal with the insurance company myself. He knows who can physically and mentally aid your recovery no matter what the situation and understands how to best help people dealing with traumas due to injuries. Sam treats his clients with dignity and respect and personally cares for their well-being. I highly recommend seeking Mr. Elder to at least discuss and then hopefully handle your case.

Sam helped us after a car accident last year. He is very attentive and kept us informed all through the settlement process. His knowledge and experience in personal injury law helped us from aggressive insurance company settler. His emails are especially well written. It is very hard to find any lawyer with such dedication to clients interest.

While insurance company wanted to close my case with very small amount of settlement $, Sam worked very hard for my case even though it looked simple and not serious car accident from outside, he tried to understand how much suffer i'd been through mentally as well as physical pain. I believed I deservedon't more than what insurance company offered, and I was saved by Sam, it ended up with good amount of $ that I could finally accept. Trust him and you will be satisfied with his hard work for sure. Thank you again Sam!

I had something very bizarre something that no one has seen before. Most attorneys literally said they have never seen anything like it even looking at the police report ect. Basically witnessing a very serious car accident on the freeway where a single car accident occurred. She rolled her jeep five times. The driver was driving negligently 40 in a 70 when I passed her. I then was at least 30 yards in front of her when I saw her in the rear view mirror……she started waving her arms freaking out mad that I or that someone had passed her as if we were out of line going the actual speed limit. Next thing I see she jerked her steering wheel (not sure why, possibly to go around me because she was mad or because she wasn’t paying attention I will never know why ) but she jerked it hard where she then literally went sideways across all of I5 in Mt vernon wa. I was still a good 30 plus yards in front when I saw her fish tail again literally went sideways across multiple lanes her car then went up in the air and rolled at least four times. It was a one car accident she was 100% at fault per Progressive and the police. All witnesses stated I did nothing nor was I even part of this. The police never even asked for my ID just a witness statement. Three months later however she found an attorney and found a way to blame it on me and put it on somebody pretty much through insurance fraud. Progressive didn’t investigate so she came after me and they paid her out. We both had progressive insurance and they neglected to do any kind of investigation since it was a one car accident. There was video coverage at multiple buildings they chose not to pull up when it was available to progressive one being my husbands own employer in which the accident happened in front. I was only a witness. Nothing in the police report should’ve pend this nor did it on anyone except for the driver. She was driving negligently and with a jeep that was not even legal to be on the freeway. Conveniently they waited three months to figure out somebody to blame just enough time where they thought all the video evidence was gone. Since we both had Progressive and they didn’t investigate properly they paid out my policy limits Which greatly impacted me in so many ways mostly mentally and emotionally but when you have the lowest limits Progressive threw me under the bus because they didn’t properly investigate and the driver clearly found a loophole and they threw a Hail Mary and got a small pay out Most attorneys truly were honest and said they’ve never seen anything like this it greatly affected me mentally emotionally and now I have a not at fault accident on my record and sustained a huge amount of mental distress. Attorneys didn’t care and couldn’t help Sam completely took the time to actually care about another human being and gave me advice and hopefully the power to be able to move on from this tragic unfair accident which will stay on my driving record even though I was simply a witness. Lesson learned I will never pull over for an accident again. I legally didn’t have to but honestly Sam what a great guy. What a great quality that somebody actually cared even though it was not a case that he would be able to do much with he definitely cared and explained things and offered to take a look at any paperwork I need to sign off on since Progressive is having to offer me a very small settlement since I apparently was in an accident they apparently need to be the ones to pay for my mental health and medical bill since I had just had a serious foot surgery when I was on the side of the freeway for hours after stopping as a good Samaritan. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through being accused of something that is nothing but insurance fraud. Anyway TMI but hey thank you Sam you’re a great guy and I will forever appreciate you. Anyone would be very lucky to have you on their side.

I can't sing Sam and his team's praises enough. After suffering from injuries from multiple accidents in a very short time I knew my case would be complicated and I needed to be represented. I am so thankful I chose Sam's firm to represent my case. Sam, James and their team advocated for me and worked diligently with the insurance companies to ensure that I was able to get the medical attention I needed. They went above and beyond to make the whole process feel smooth and take away any stress or anxiety I had about my bills and my case. James managed the majority of my case and lead the arbitration for my case. He was very well prepared and was calm, clear and compelling. I believe I got the best possible outcome for my case and I am so grateful. They kept me informed during the whole process, were always available to answer any question I had, and they always treated me with kindness. I never felt like just a case, I felt like they were fully invested in my wellbeing. I would highly recommend them.

At every point in this long endeavor, I've been so glad that I worked with Sam Elder and his team. Sam and Keri took such good care of me in my bike collision case. I'm grateful for their support and guidance because it let me focus on the difficult task of healing and finding wellness without the distraction and stress of handling growing stacks of paperwork. Before I was referred to Sam from a friend, I was nervous about having to negotiate with an insurance company and navigate an unfamiliar system. That all changed after my first meeting with Sam and Keri because I knew I was in the hands of a professional team who truly emanated the values I had read about on their site: Honest, Responsive, Innovative, and Ethical. Thank you so much to Sam and Keri and your whole team for helping me!

That all changed after my first meeting with Sam and Keri because I knew I was in the hands of a professional team who truly emanated the values I had read about on their site: Honest, Responsive, Innovative, and Ethical. Thank you so much to Sam and Keri and your whole team for helping me!

Sam is the best attorney in the region. He is responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, acts from integrity and high professionalism and will always do right by you. I really appreciated his honesty and transparency in my situation and for providing education, perspective, and options for me to evaluate my case and make the best decision for me. I trust him and have referred several friends to Sam and his team. I felt Sam went above and beyond not only in providing exceptional service but in making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process, keeping me informed in a timely manner, and acting in my best interest at all times. He is worth investing in to help yourself get the best outcome possible for your situation. Can't recommend enough! Thank you, Sam!

Mr. Elder has vast experience and knowledge of the court dynamics along with insights to the overpowering processes that insurance companies will pitch at you. He was quick to adjust to the changing landscape in any developments that occurred throughout my case, and was able to leverage situations at certain points in order to accomplish the best result for me. He was very hands on proactive in dealing with all issues in the case. He did not feel like just a representative on my behalf but a true advocate for my rights and justice. He helped relieve an enormous stress out of my life, rather than having to deal with the insurance company myself. He knows who can physically and mentally aid your recovery no matter what the situation and understands how to best help people dealing with traumas due to injuries. Sam treats his clients with dignity and respect and personally cares for their well-being. I highly recommend seeking Mr. Elder to at least discuss and then hopefully handle your case.

Sam helped us after a car accident last year. He is very attentive and kept us informed all through the settlement process. His knowledge and experience in personal injury law helped us from aggressive insurance company settler. His emails are especially well written. It is very hard to find any lawyer with such dedication to clients interest.

While insurance company wanted to close my case with very small amount of settlement $, Sam worked very hard for my case even though it looked simple and not serious car accident from outside, he tried to understand how much suffer i'd been through mentally as well as physical pain. I believed I deservedon't more than what insurance company offered, and I was saved by Sam, it ended up with good amount of $ that I could finally accept. Trust him and you will be satisfied with his hard work for sure. Thank you again Sam!

I had something very bizarre something that no one has seen before. Most attorneys literally said they have never seen anything like it even looking at the police report ect. Basically witnessing a very serious car accident on the freeway where a single car accident occurred. She rolled her jeep five times. The driver was driving negligently 40 in a 70 when I passed her. I then was at least 30 yards in front of her when I saw her in the rear view mirror……she started waving her arms freaking out mad that I or that someone had passed her as if we were out of line going the actual speed limit. Next thing I see she jerked her steering wheel (not sure why, possibly to go around me because she was mad or because she wasn’t paying attention I will never know why ) but she jerked it hard where she then literally went sideways across all of I5 in Mt vernon wa. I was still a good 30 plus yards in front when I saw her fish tail again literally went sideways across multiple lanes her car then went up in the air and rolled at least four times. It was a one car accident she was 100% at fault per Progressive and the police. All witnesses stated I did nothing nor was I even part of this. The police never even asked for my ID just a witness statement. Three months later however she found an attorney and found a way to blame it on me and put it on somebody pretty much through insurance fraud. Progressive didn’t investigate so she came after me and they paid her out. We both had progressive insurance and they neglected to do any kind of investigation since it was a one car accident. There was video coverage at multiple buildings they chose not to pull up when it was available to progressive one being my husbands own employer in which the accident happened in front. I was only a witness. Nothing in the police report should’ve pend this nor did it on anyone except for the driver. She was driving negligently and with a jeep that was not even legal to be on the freeway. Conveniently they waited three months to figure out somebody to blame just enough time where they thought all the video evidence was gone. Since we both had Progressive and they didn’t investigate properly they paid out my policy limits Which greatly impacted me in so many ways mostly mentally and emotionally but when you have the lowest limits Progressive threw me under the bus because they didn’t properly investigate and the driver clearly found a loophole and they threw a Hail Mary and got a small pay out Most attorneys truly were honest and said they’ve never seen anything like this it greatly affected me mentally emotionally and now I have a not at fault accident on my record and sustained a huge amount of mental distress. Attorneys didn’t care and couldn’t help Sam completely took the time to actually care about another human being and gave me advice and hopefully the power to be able to move on from this tragic unfair accident which will stay on my driving record even though I was simply a witness. Lesson learned I will never pull over for an accident again. I legally didn’t have to but honestly Sam what a great guy. What a great quality that somebody actually cared even though it was not a case that he would be able to do much with he definitely cared and explained things and offered to take a look at any paperwork I need to sign off on since Progressive is having to offer me a very small settlement since I apparently was in an accident they apparently need to be the ones to pay for my mental health and medical bill since I had just had a serious foot surgery when I was on the side of the freeway for hours after stopping as a good Samaritan. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through being accused of something that is nothing but insurance fraud. Anyway TMI but hey thank you Sam you’re a great guy and I will forever appreciate you. Anyone would be very lucky to have you on their side.

I can't sing Sam and his team's praises enough. After suffering from injuries from multiple accidents in a very short time I knew my case would be complicated and I needed to be represented. I am so thankful I chose Sam's firm to represent my case. Sam, James and their team advocated for me and worked diligently with the insurance companies to ensure that I was able to get the medical attention I needed. They went above and beyond to make the whole process feel smooth and take away any stress or anxiety I had about my bills and my case. James managed the majority of my case and lead the arbitration for my case. He was very well prepared and was calm, clear and compelling. I believe I got the best possible outcome for my case and I am so grateful. They kept me informed during the whole process, were always available to answer any question I had, and they always treated me with kindness. I never felt like just a case, I felt like they were fully invested in my wellbeing. I would highly recommend them.

They kept me informed during the whole process, were always available to answer any question I had, and they always treated me with kindness. I never felt like just a case, I felt like they were fully invested in my wellbeing. I would highly recommend them.

At every point in this long endeavor, I've been so glad that I worked with Sam Elder and his team. Sam and Keri took such good care of me in my bike collision case. I'm grateful for their support and guidance because it let me focus on the difficult task of healing and finding wellness without the distraction and stress of handling growing stacks of paperwork. Before I was referred to Sam from a friend, I was nervous about having to negotiate with an insurance company and navigate an unfamiliar system. That all changed after my first meeting with Sam and Keri because I knew I was in the hands of a professional team who truly emanated the values I had read about on their site: Honest, Responsive, Innovative, and Ethical. Thank you so much to Sam and Keri and your whole team for helping me!

Sam is the best attorney in the region. He is responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, acts from integrity and high professionalism and will always do right by you. I really appreciated his honesty and transparency in my situation and for providing education, perspective, and options for me to evaluate my case and make the best decision for me. I trust him and have referred several friends to Sam and his team. I felt Sam went above and beyond not only in providing exceptional service but in making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process, keeping me informed in a timely manner, and acting in my best interest at all times. He is worth investing in to help yourself get the best outcome possible for your situation. Can't recommend enough! Thank you, Sam!

Mr. Elder has vast experience and knowledge of the court dynamics along with insights to the overpowering processes that insurance companies will pitch at you. He was quick to adjust to the changing landscape in any developments that occurred throughout my case, and was able to leverage situations at certain points in order to accomplish the best result for me. He was very hands on proactive in dealing with all issues in the case. He did not feel like just a representative on my behalf but a true advocate for my rights and justice. He helped relieve an enormous stress out of my life, rather than having to deal with the insurance company myself. He knows who can physically and mentally aid your recovery no matter what the situation and understands how to best help people dealing with traumas due to injuries. Sam treats his clients with dignity and respect and personally cares for their well-being. I highly recommend seeking Mr. Elder to at least discuss and then hopefully handle your case.

Sam helped us after a car accident last year. He is very attentive and kept us informed all through the settlement process. His knowledge and experience in personal injury law helped us from aggressive insurance company settler. His emails are especially well written. It is very hard to find any lawyer with such dedication to clients interest.

While insurance company wanted to close my case with very small amount of settlement $, Sam worked very hard for my case even though it looked simple and not serious car accident from outside, he tried to understand how much suffer i'd been through mentally as well as physical pain. I believed I deservedon't more than what insurance company offered, and I was saved by Sam, it ended up with good amount of $ that I could finally accept. Trust him and you will be satisfied with his hard work for sure. Thank you again Sam!

I had something very bizarre something that no one has seen before. Most attorneys literally said they have never seen anything like it even looking at the police report ect. Basically witnessing a very serious car accident on the freeway where a single car accident occurred. She rolled her jeep five times. The driver was driving negligently 40 in a 70 when I passed her. I then was at least 30 yards in front of her when I saw her in the rear view mirror……she started waving her arms freaking out mad that I or that someone had passed her as if we were out of line going the actual speed limit. Next thing I see she jerked her steering wheel (not sure why, possibly to go around me because she was mad or because she wasn’t paying attention I will never know why ) but she jerked it hard where she then literally went sideways across all of I5 in Mt vernon wa. I was still a good 30 plus yards in front when I saw her fish tail again literally went sideways across multiple lanes her car then went up in the air and rolled at least four times. It was a one car accident she was 100% at fault per Progressive and the police. All witnesses stated I did nothing nor was I even part of this. The police never even asked for my ID just a witness statement. Three months later however she found an attorney and found a way to blame it on me and put it on somebody pretty much through insurance fraud. Progressive didn’t investigate so she came after me and they paid her out. We both had progressive insurance and they neglected to do any kind of investigation since it was a one car accident. There was video coverage at multiple buildings they chose not to pull up when it was available to progressive one being my husbands own employer in which the accident happened in front. I was only a witness. Nothing in the police report should’ve pend this nor did it on anyone except for the driver. She was driving negligently and with a jeep that was not even legal to be on the freeway. Conveniently they waited three months to figure out somebody to blame just enough time where they thought all the video evidence was gone. Since we both had Progressive and they didn’t investigate properly they paid out my policy limits Which greatly impacted me in so many ways mostly mentally and emotionally but when you have the lowest limits Progressive threw me under the bus because they didn’t properly investigate and the driver clearly found a loophole and they threw a Hail Mary and got a small pay out Most attorneys truly were honest and said they’ve never seen anything like this it greatly affected me mentally emotionally and now I have a not at fault accident on my record and sustained a huge amount of mental distress. Attorneys didn’t care and couldn’t help Sam completely took the time to actually care about another human being and gave me advice and hopefully the power to be able to move on from this tragic unfair accident which will stay on my driving record even though I was simply a witness. Lesson learned I will never pull over for an accident again. I legally didn’t have to but honestly Sam what a great guy. What a great quality that somebody actually cared even though it was not a case that he would be able to do much with he definitely cared and explained things and offered to take a look at any paperwork I need to sign off on since Progressive is having to offer me a very small settlement since I apparently was in an accident they apparently need to be the ones to pay for my mental health and medical bill since I had just had a serious foot surgery when I was on the side of the freeway for hours after stopping as a good Samaritan. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through being accused of something that is nothing but insurance fraud. Anyway TMI but hey thank you Sam you’re a great guy and I will forever appreciate you. Anyone would be very lucky to have you on their side.

I can't sing Sam and his team's praises enough. After suffering from injuries from multiple accidents in a very short time I knew my case would be complicated and I needed to be represented. I am so thankful I chose Sam's firm to represent my case. Sam, James and their team advocated for me and worked diligently with the insurance companies to ensure that I was able to get the medical attention I needed. They went above and beyond to make the whole process feel smooth and take away any stress or anxiety I had about my bills and my case. James managed the majority of my case and lead the arbitration for my case. He was very well prepared and was calm, clear and compelling. I believe I got the best possible outcome for my case and I am so grateful.

I can't sing Sam and his team's praises enough. After suffering from injuries from multiple accidents in a very short time I knew my case would be complicated and I needed to be represented. I am so thankful I chose Sam's firm to represent my case. Sam, James and their team advocated for me and worked diligently with the insurance companies to ensure that I was able to get the medical attention I needed. They went above and beyond to make the whole process feel smooth and take away any stress or anxiety I had about my bills and my case. James managed the majority of my case and lead the arbitration for my case. He was very well prepared and was calm, clear and compelling. I believe I got the best possible outcome for my case and I am so grateful. They kept me informed during the whole process, were always available to answer any question I had, and they always treated me with kindness. I never felt like just a case, I felt like they were fully invested in my wellbeing. I would highly recommend them.

At every point in this long endeavor, I've been so glad that I worked with Sam Elder and his team. Sam and Keri took such good care of me in my bike collision case. I'm grateful for their support and guidance because it let me focus on the difficult task of healing and finding wellness without the distraction and stress of handling growing stacks of paperwork. Before I was referred to Sam from a friend, I was nervous about having to negotiate with an insurance company and navigate an unfamiliar system. That all changed after my first meeting with Sam and Keri because I knew I was in the hands of a professional team who truly emanated the values I had read about on their site: Honest, Responsive, Innovative, and Ethical. Thank you so much to Sam and Keri and your whole team for helping me!

Sam is the best attorney in the region. He is responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, acts from integrity and high professionalism and will always do right by you. I really appreciated his honesty and transparency in my situation and for providing education, perspective, and options for me to evaluate my case and make the best decision for me. I trust him and have referred several friends to Sam and his team. I felt Sam went above and beyond not only in providing exceptional service but in making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process, keeping me informed in a timely manner, and acting in my best interest at all times. He is worth investing in to help yourself get the best outcome possible for your situation. Can't recommend enough! Thank you, Sam!

Mr. Elder has vast experience and knowledge of the court dynamics along with insights to the overpowering processes that insurance companies will pitch at you. He was quick to adjust to the changing landscape in any developments that occurred throughout my case, and was able to leverage situations at certain points in order to accomplish the best result for me. He was very hands on proactive in dealing with all issues in the case. He did not feel like just a representative on my behalf but a true advocate for my rights and justice. He helped relieve an enormous stress out of my life, rather than having to deal with the insurance company myself. He knows who can physically and mentally aid your recovery no matter what the situation and understands how to best help people dealing with traumas due to injuries. Sam treats his clients with dignity and respect and personally cares for their well-being. I highly recommend seeking Mr. Elder to at least discuss and then hopefully handle your case.

Sam really stuck by me. It took six years to resolve a car accident injury and Sam could not have been kinder, more helpful, more patient and more knowledgeable. Sam is the real deal. I can’t say enough good things about him. He really cares.

Sam helped us after a car accident last year. He is very attentive and kept us informed all through the settlement process. His knowledge and experience in personal injury law helped us from aggressive insurance company settler. His emails are especially well written. It is very hard to find any lawyer with such dedication to clients interest.

While insurance company wanted to close my case with very small amount of settlement $, Sam worked very hard for my case even though it looked simple and not serious car accident from outside, he tried to understand how much suffer i'd been through mentally as well as physical pain. I believed I deservedon't more than what insurance company offered, and I was saved by Sam, it ended up with good amount of $ that I could finally accept. Trust him and you will be satisfied with his hard work for sure. Thank you again Sam!

I had something very bizarre something that no one has seen before. Most attorneys literally said they have never seen anything like it even looking at the police report ect. Basically witnessing a very serious car accident on the freeway where a single car accident occurred. She rolled her jeep five times. The driver was driving negligently 40 in a 70 when I passed her. I then was at least 30 yards in front of her when I saw her in the rear view mirror……she started waving her arms freaking out mad that I or that someone had passed her as if we were out of line going the actual speed limit. Next thing I see she jerked her steering wheel (not sure why, possibly to go around me because she was mad or because she wasn’t paying attention I will never know why ) but she jerked it hard where she then literally went sideways across all of I5 in Mt vernon wa. I was still a good 30 plus yards in front when I saw her fish tail again literally went sideways across multiple lanes her car then went up in the air and rolled at least four times. It was a one car accident she was 100% at fault per Progressive and the police. All witnesses stated I did nothing nor was I even part of this. The police never even asked for my ID just a witness statement. Three months later however she found an attorney and found a way to blame it on me and put it on somebody pretty much through insurance fraud. Progressive didn’t investigate so she came after me and they paid her out. We both had progressive insurance and they neglected to do any kind of investigation since it was a one car accident. There was video coverage at multiple buildings they chose not to pull up when it was available to progressive one being my husbands own employer in which the accident happened in front. I was only a witness. Nothing in the police report should’ve pend this nor did it on anyone except for the driver. She was driving negligently and with a jeep that was not even legal to be on the freeway. Conveniently they waited three months to figure out somebody to blame just enough time where they thought all the video evidence was gone. Since we both had Progressive and they didn’t investigate properly they paid out my policy limits Which greatly impacted me in so many ways mostly mentally and emotionally but when you have the lowest limits Progressive threw me under the bus because they didn’t properly investigate and the driver clearly found a loophole and they threw a Hail Mary and got a small pay out Most attorneys truly were honest and said they’ve never seen anything like this it greatly affected me mentally emotionally and now I have a not at fault accident on my record and sustained a huge amount of mental distress. Attorneys didn’t care and couldn’t help Sam completely took the time to actually care about another human being and gave me advice and hopefully the power to be able to move on from this tragic unfair accident which will stay on my driving record even though I was simply a witness. Lesson learned I will never pull over for an accident again. I legally didn’t have to but honestly Sam what a great guy. What a great quality that somebody actually cared even though it was not a case that he would be able to do much with he definitely cared and explained things and offered to take a look at any paperwork I need to sign off on since Progressive is having to offer me a very small settlement since I apparently was in an accident they apparently need to be the ones to pay for my mental health and medical bill since I had just had a serious foot surgery when I was on the side of the freeway for hours after stopping as a good Samaritan. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through being accused of something that is nothing but insurance fraud. Anyway TMI but hey thank you Sam you’re a great guy and I will forever appreciate you. Anyone would be very lucky to have you on their side.

What a great quality that somebody actually cared even though it was not a case that he would be able to do much with he definitely cared and explained things and offered to take a look at any paperwork I need to sign off on since Progressive is having to offer me a very small settlement since I apparently was in an accident they apparently need to be the ones to pay for my mental health and medical bill since I had just had a serious foot surgery when I was on the side of the freeway for hours after stopping as a good Samaritan. It has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through being accused of something that is nothing but insurance fraud. Anyway TMI but hey thank you Sam you’re a great guy and I will forever appreciate you. Anyone would be very lucky to have you on their side.

I can't sing Sam and his team's praises enough. After suffering from injuries from multiple accidents in a very short time I knew my case would be complicated and I needed to be represented. I am so thankful I chose Sam's firm to represent my case. Sam, James and their team advocated for me and worked diligently with the insurance companies to ensure that I was able to get the medical attention I needed. They went above and beyond to make the whole process feel smooth and take away any stress or anxiety I had about my bills and my case. James managed the majority of my case and lead the arbitration for my case. He was very well prepared and was calm, clear and compelling. I believe I got the best possible outcome for my case and I am so grateful. They kept me informed during the whole process, were always available to answer any question I had, and they always treated me with kindness. I never felt like just a case, I felt like they were fully invested in my wellbeing. I would highly recommend them.

At every point in this long endeavor, I've been so glad that I worked with Sam Elder and his team. Sam and Keri took such good care of me in my bike collision case. I'm grateful for their support and guidance because it let me focus on the difficult task of healing and finding wellness without the distraction and stress of handling growing stacks of paperwork. Before I was referred to Sam from a friend, I was nervous about having to negotiate with an insurance company and navigate an unfamiliar system. That all changed after my first meeting with Sam and Keri because I knew I was in the hands of a professional team who truly emanated the values I had read about on their site: Honest, Responsive, Innovative, and Ethical. Thank you so much to Sam and Keri and your whole team for helping me!

Sam is the best attorney in the region. He is responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, acts from integrity and high professionalism and will always do right by you. I really appreciated his honesty and transparency in my situation and for providing education, perspective, and options for me to evaluate my case and make the best decision for me. I trust him and have referred several friends to Sam and his team. I felt Sam went above and beyond not only in providing exceptional service but in making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process, keeping me informed in a timely manner, and acting in my best interest at all times. He is worth investing in to help yourself get the best outcome possible for your situation. Can't recommend enough! Thank you, Sam!

Mr. Elder has vast experience and knowledge of the court dynamics along with insights to the overpowering processes that insurance companies will pitch at you. He was quick to adjust to the changing landscape in any developments that occurred throughout my case, and was able to leverage situations at certain points in order to accomplish the best result for me. He was very hands on proactive in dealing with all issues in the case. He did not feel like just a representative on my behalf but a true advocate for my rights and justice. He helped relieve an enormous stress out of my life, rather than having to deal with the insurance company myself. He knows who can physically and mentally aid your recovery no matter what the situation and understands how to best help people dealing with traumas due to injuries. Sam treats his clients with dignity and respect and personally cares for their well-being. I highly recommend seeking Mr. Elder to at least discuss and then hopefully handle your case.

Sam really stuck by me. It took six years to resolve a car accident injury and Sam could not have been kinder, more helpful, more patient and more knowledgeable. Sam is the real deal. I can’t say enough good things about him. He really cares.

Sam helped us after a car accident last year. He is very attentive and kept us informed all through the settlement process. His knowledge and experience in personal injury law helped us from aggressive insurance company settler. His emails are especially well written. It is very hard to find any lawyer with such dedication to clients interest.

I highly recommend Sam Elder if you are in need of an auto accident attorney. Sam helped ease any concerns I had and helped me through the process every step of the way. He was excellent in representing me. I would definitely hire him again if I ever am in need.

While insurance company wanted to close my case with very small amount of settlement $, Sam worked very hard for my case even though it looked simple and not serious car accident from outside, he tried to understand how much suffer i'd been through mentally as well as physical pain. I believed I deservedon't more than what insurance company offered, and I was saved by Sam, it ended up with good amount of $ that I could finally accept. Trust him and you will be satisfied with his hard work for sure. Thank you again Sam!
