Robert J. Kim: Korean-Speaking Injury Lawyer in Silver Spring

Montgomery County · Maryland

Why a Korean-speaking lawyer matters after an accident

Maryland injury claims are unforgiving about early mistakes. Maryland follows contributory negligence, so an injured person found even slightly at fault can be barred from recovering anything from the other driver. A short recorded call with the other driver’s insurer, or a yes to a question that was not fully understood, can become the reason a claim is denied.

For clients more comfortable in Korean, that risk is higher. Robert Kim explains each step in Korean: what the insurer is asking for, what a settlement release gives up, and what the deadlines are. The client decides with a full understanding of the choice.

Silver Spring sits on the District line, so a single crash on the Capital Beltway, Colesville Road or Georgia Avenue can involve Maryland drivers and DC commuters. Which state’s law applies, and which insurer pays first, depends on where the collision happened.
