About The Bernard Law Group

Multiple Verdicts & Settlements for over a million dollars

We live in a society driven by profits, bottom lines, and expediency. All too often, individuals fall prey to the whims of monolithic corporations. When a person is injured as the result of negligence, malpractice, or corporate greed, who will fight for their rights?

The Bernard Law Group is committed to defending the social contract by which citizens of a civilized land must live. Our firm is committed to helping victims whose rights are violated, whether the cause be medical malpractice, products liability, wrongful death, road design defect, construction, catastrophic injuries, motorcycle, premises liability, or the abuses of nursing homes. We fight without rest using every avenue of the law available to us until justice has been served.

The Bernard Law Group is a limited liability company. For two decades, we have applied our collective experience and knowledge exclusively to personal injury. We have been successful in obtaining millions of dollars for our clients in a number of settlements and trial verdicts.

When injuries happen, every second counts. We do not believe voicemail systems are sufficient to handle the immediate, pressing needs of victims seeking help. Therefore, all phone calls will be answered by a live receptionist, to ensure your questions are answered and no valuable opportunities are lost. Our answering service is open 24-7-365 so you can always speak directly with a live representative.

Our staff is fully trained and will assist you in those areas concerning your case that require no direct attorney involvement. However, if the situation demands that you speak with a Washington personal injury attorney, we will immediately refer you to one. Our policy is to have an attorney return all phone calls within 24 hours, if not sooner.

It is our mission that each and every client gets the time, effort and attention he or she deserves. No person is without rights. Our hope is that you will choose the Bernard Law Group to defend your rights and secure the justice you deserve.

My attorney, Kirk, was the most compassionate lawyer I could have asked for. He worked on my case with care and made sure his paralegal always kept me on top of what was going on. They worked hard and I got all my medical bills covered. He won my case and got the insurance company to also cover the emotional trouble I went through because of the accident. I'm very thankful to everyone at Kirk's office!

After my car accident they had me get treated for about a month. After that my case was closed and I got a check within a few weeks, I thought the process would take way longer and I was very happy with my check. Thanks again!

I was in a car accident with a motorcycle. I was overwhelmed by the tons of stuff going on at the same time. I had never been in an accident before. I was referred to the Bernard Law Group where I worked with Viivi Vanderslice, Kirk Bernard and some other members of the team. They guided me through the process very professionally and answered my questions. They fought on my behalf and got me way more than I had expected. If you want to hire an attorney who knows how to win you car accident or motorcycle accident case then reach out to Bernard Law Group. You will not be sorry.

Bernard Law Group was unbelievably helpful with my injury claim. From the first time I contacted them until my case was settled, they kept me informed on the process and worked with my schedule to make appointments and schedule meetings. They answered all my questions, explained possible outcomes, and made my options clear as we moved forward. I can't say enough good things about their entire team and the settlement they secured for my family.

My mother was involved in an accident with a driver, who was driving for a well known meal delivery service. We were concerned that getting the compensation she deserved for her losses from a major corporation would be difficult, at best. We hired Bernard Law Group and had a very good experience. Meg took very good care of us! In the end my mother was awarded appropriate compensation and we were extremely satisfied. Thank You!

Wrongful Death

When our mother was killed in a bus crash, we immediately called The Bernard Group. We trusted that they were working for us and had extensive knowledge of the law. In the end, either they did not know the law and were incompetent or they lied to us and took money that was not rightfully theirs. Either of those previously mentioned are or should be acceptable for an attorney. When our mother was tragically killed in a bus crash, they should have known almost immediately that due to state law, there was a cap on what we could receive. This should have been told to us in the beginning, instead of dragging our case out to let the statutes expire and then we find out that there was Never Going To Be a case, we would only receive insurance compensation and that is on Bernard Law Group. They took half of the insurance pay out for my mothers death, without doing anything. We would have received that insurance money regardless of whether they “helped” us or not. It’s offensive and frustrating.

Hired Attorney Viivi M. Vanderslice

Awful, horrible and never again! I was in a bad accident in 2018, the insurance company wanted releases signed within 13 hours. I knew something was right so I contacted Bernard Law Group. I should have done better research and more calling around. 2 years of treatment came to a referral for a procedure my insurance doesn't cover, doesn't even consider it it's just flat excluded from the policy. 2 years of what I am now realizing was just lies and passing blame to the other side. 2 months later and I am still waiting and being fed more lies. Viivi Vanderslice is incompeten, doesn't listen to you and just does whatever she feels is best for you without discussing or considering your wants or needs. If I could get the fee they collected for themselves I would, they don't deserve even half of what they got.

As most bottom feeder attorneys in the Seattle Area, I got the brush off, after they stated they really only want private insurance claims that pay good settlements and where they don't have to work for their clients. whether it be they are not good enough to battle L&I, There is not enough money in it for them or they just don't really care about servicing those in need, I wouldn't recommend them. I guess I am not close enough to the settlement for them.
