Virginia Brain Injury Lawyer

Helping You Recover Compensation for Your Injuries and Anguish After an Accident that Wasn’t Your Fault

If you or your loved one was diagnosed with a brain injury after an accident that was not your fault, you may be able to recover compensation for your injuries and anguish.  In Virginia, you have the right to file a personal injury claim, or lawsuit, against the at-fault party to recover monetary damages.

One of the greatest challenges brain injury victims face is the “invisible” nature of their injury. We know the procedures and testing which can be utilized to level the playing field for our clients. In order to demonstrate the significant impairment suffered by our brain injury clients, we often collaborate with highly distinguished medical experts.

Free Consultations

We know how to help the insurance companies, and a jury, understand just how much your injury will affect you for the rest of your life. If a drunk or reckless driver, dangerous product, slip and fall, medical mistake, or other negligent act caused your brain injury, contact our experienced Virginia brain injury lawyers for a free consultation (877) 544-5323.

Statute of Limitations (Deadlines)

Under Virginia law, it is necessary to file a lawsuit within strict deadlines imposed by law. In many cases, Virginia provides for a two-year deadline also known as a Statute of Limitations. However, special circumstances may apply depending on the situation. Once you have missed this deadline, you will no longer be able to file a claim.
