Exceptions and details
The limit is $10,000 for claims brought by a natural person (an individual) and $5,000 for all other plaintiffs, such as businesses. Small claims departments are part of the district courts, and their jurisdiction is not exclusive. The limits were last amended in 2019 (2019 c 86). No 2025–2026 increase was found.
The 3-year period covers "any other injury to the person or rights of another not hereinafter enumerated." Injuries from health care (medical malpractice) have their own limitation statute, RCW 4.16.350.
WSBA does not run a lawyer referral service. Its Find Legal Help page lists county bar referral programs: King, Clark, Snohomish, Tacoma-Pierce and San Juan.
