Insurance & Property Claims

Standing Up for Policyholders When Insurers Fail to Act in Good Faith

When a disaster strikes — a burst pipe, fire, storm damage, theft, or another unexpected loss — you expect your insurance company to honor the policy you’ve paid for. Too often, however, claims are delayed, minimized, or wrongfully denied, leaving families and property owners without the resources they urgently need.

Charles Washington brings decades of legal experience, disciplined investigation, and strategic negotiation skills to hold insurers accountable. Whether your claim involves a home, rental property, business premises, or personal belongings, you deserve a lawyer who will push past excuses, demand transparency, and ensure the carrier treats you fairly.

My approach is simple: clarity, persistence, and tailored advocacy aimed at securing the compensation you are owed — not just what the insurer wants to offer.

Why Clients Trust My Approach

  • Decades of federal legal experience built on strategic thinking and disciplined case development

  • Direct, personal communication — you work with me, not a case manager

  • Clear explanations of your rights and policy coverage so you always understand where you stand

  • Relentless pursuit of fair compensation, backed by the ability to litigate when necessary

You pay your premiums with the expectation of protection. When the company breaks that promise, I step in to make things right.
