Virginia has strict legal deadlines and unforgiving fault rules that can significantly impact your case. Acting early helps preserve evidence and protects your ability to recover benefits. Most personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the accident, and workers’ compensation claims generally must be filed within two years of the workplace injury.
To prevail in a personal injury case, we must show that someone else owed you a legal duty of care, breached that duty, and caused your injuries and losses. Virginia applies a pure contributory negligence rule which means if you are even slightly at fault, you may be barred from recovery. This alone makes experienced legal advocacy essential to every case.
