  • Norfolk Personal Injury Lawyers

    Norfolk is the the historical, urban, financial, and cultural center of the Hampton Road region in Virginia. The popular area is home to millions of residents and travelers visiting its downtown historic district and shopping centers. Heavily trafficked roads and active suburban neighborhoods often put Norfolk residents at risk for a variety of accidents and injuries.

    What Is a Personal Injury?

    Personal injury law is designed to protect you if you are injured or harmed because of someone else’s negligent act or failure to act. In a successful personal injury claim, the individual or entity who caused the injury compensates the victim for the losses they suffered. Any instance in which someone else’s negligence leads to your injuries, damages, or other losses can give rise to a personal injury case.

    What Types Of Personal Injury Cases Do You Handle?

    Our legal team’s extensive experience allows us to handle a wide range of legal matters:

    • Bicycle accidents
    • Car accidents
    • Criminal defense
    • Criminal traffic
    • Medical malpractice
    • Nursing home abuse
    • Pedestrian accidents
    • Slip and fall accidents
    • Truck accidents
    • Wrongful death

    Why Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?

    If you have been injured in any kind of accident, it is important to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer. Our Norfolk personal injury lawyers will help prove fault and liability, gather evidence, build your case, and advocate for the compensation you need and deserve. Injured victims who work with a skilled personal injury lawyer are much more likely to recover higher settlements and verdict awards. 

    Compensatory damages a personal injury lawyer may recover on your behalf include:

    • Medical expenses
    • Ongoing medical care costs
    • Lost wages
    • Diminished earning capacity
    • Emotional distress
    • Pain and suffering 
    • Additional out-of-pocket costs
    • Wrongful death

    Also, our Norfolk personal injury lawyers can also pursue up to $350,000 in punitive damages if the injury was intentional. This additional compensation is intended to punish defendants for their willful and reckless behavior.

    How Much Is a Personal Injury Claim Worth in Norfolk?

    Every personal injury case is unique, and its worth largely depends on the extent of injury. The median award for personal injury cases in Virginia is approximately $25,0000. Over 65% percent of all Virginia plaintiffs are awarded compensation, which is well above the national average of 55 percent. The average vehicle accident verdict in Virginia is over $500,000. Our firm has earned the reputation for recovering higher-than-average financial awards for our injured clients.

    How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim?

    In Virginia, the statute of limitations to file a car accident, medical malpractice, wrongful death, and other personal injury claims is two years from the date of injury or death, with very few exceptions. It is essential to file your claim in a timely manner; otherwise, the court may dismiss your lawsuit entirely. Our Norfolk personal injury lawyers will help ensure a timely and effective legal process.

    What Should I Do If I Have Been Injured in an Accident?

    The first thing you must do after being injured in an accident is seek immediate medical attention. This is critical not only for your health and safety, but also to document medical treatment for future legal proceedings. The next step is to contact an experienced Norfolk personal injury lawyer who will protect your rights and strive for the best possible outcome for your case.
