RCW 59.18.280 does provide in the last sentence of the second paragraph, "the prevailing party shall additionally be entitled to the cost of suit or arbitration including a reasonable attorney's fee" for the landlord's failure to make a refund of the deposit. However, that statute does not have the provision contained in RCW 4.84.330 that voids a waiver by any of the parties to a contract or lease entered into after September 21, 1977. Likewise, the last paragraph of RCW 59.18.280 does provide that a landlord may bring an action for damage over and above the amount of deposit and if successful may be accorded attorney fees.
