Former Prosecutor Fighting for You
Pendergast Law, also known as Hardwick & Pendergast, P.S., is a distinguished personal injury law firm that has been serving the Seattle community for nearly 30 years. The firm is led by Joseph "J.P." Pendergast, a seasoned attorney with a unique background as a former King County Deputy Prosecuting Attorney. This experience gives him distinct insight into how to build a case that withstands scrutiny and how to effectively negotiate with opposing counsel. The firm’s philosophy is simple: "Helping You Heal While We Recover." They understand that after a serious accident, the victim’s primary focus should be on physical recovery, not on battling insurance adjusters. Pendergast Law takes over the legal burden, handling every aspect of the claim from investigation to settlement or trial.

- Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents: Advocating for vulnerable road users injured in crosswalks or bike lanes.
- Wrongful Death: Providing compassionate legal support to families who have lost a loved one due to negligence.
- Premises Liability: Holding property owners accountable for slip and fall accidents caused by unsafe conditions.
Client-Centered Approach
Pendergast Law is known for its high ethical standards and client satisfaction. J.P. Pendergast is a member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a testament to his success in securing substantial settlements and verdicts. Despite their impressive track record, the firm maintains a personal touch, ensuring that clients are kept informed and treated with respect throughout the legal process.
