Understanding Virginia’s Personal Injury Laws
Virginia law can be particularly strict when it comes to personal injury claims.
Virginia follows a pure contributory negligence rule, which means that if an injured person is found even partially at fault for an accident, they may be barred from recovering compensation.
Because of this, it is important to speak with an experienced attorney as soon as possible after the accident to preserve evidence and protect your rights.
What to Do After an Accident
If you have been injured, taking the right steps early can make a significant difference in your case:
- Seek medical attention immediately and follow all treatment plans
- Report the accident to the appropriate authorities
- Document the scene if possible (photos, videos, detailed account of what happened)
- Avoid discussing fault even casually
- Consult with a personal injury attorney
Our team is here to guide you through each step and communicate with insurance companies on your behalf.
