Serious injuries deserve experienced attorneys
Virginia Car Accident Lawyer
If you have been injured in a car accident in Virginia that was caused by someone else’s negligence, it may be in your best interest to discuss your situation with a Virginia car accident lawyer that is experienced with successfully defending the rights of car accident victims.
No-Fault Insurance
Virginia employs a “no-fault” system when it comes to financial responsibility for injuries and/or damages that are the result of a car accident. This means that when a driver is in an accident, it does not matter who caused the accident in terms of whose insurance pays for which damages. Regardless of who is at fault, if a driver is entitled to compensation, they will get this from their own insurance policy. A driver can receive up to the personal injury protection limit (PIP) regardless of who was at fault for causing the accident. While this system can be good for some situations, it can make getting an accident victim the full amount they need to cover all the expenses that have arisen as a result of their accident, very difficult.
Any car accident can be scary but if you have been injured in one while in the Commonwealth of Virginia, it may be in your best interest to discuss your situation with a car accident law firm Virginia residents are fortunate to have available to them. When someone is injured or when someone dies as a result of a car accident that was not their fault, the victim and/or the victim’s family may be entitled to compensation. Because car accident and personal injury laws differ from state to state, it is important to get legal advice from a lawyer at a law firm that is experienced and versed in the laws of the state where the accident occurred.

The laws that govern car accidents and personal injury claims differ from state to state. In Virginia and many of the surrounding states, when a driver causes an accident because of negligence, reckless or malicious behavior, they may be obligated to pay for the injuries and damages of other people involved in the accident. Some of the damages that a car accident victim and/or their family (the plaintiff) might seek compensation from the perpetrator of the accident (the defendant) for, include but are not limited to the following:
– Emergency room costs
– Medical expenses
– Hospital costs
– Prescription medications and over the counter drugs
– Loss of income
– Rehabilitation costs (that may include residential and long-term care)
– Loss of abilities
– Pain and emotional suffering
– Funeral costs
– Loss of benefits
– Loss of consortium (loss of spousal support)
– Loss of child care or household management.
Many people who have been injured in an accident are not familiar with the recovery processes of different injuries and accident related problems, nor are their families. Unless a person’s been in a debilitating accident before, they are not likely to know about the financial repercussions someone else’s negligent or careless actions have the potential to have on them. This is one of the many reasons people feel better when they know they have an experienced personal injury law firm looking out for them.

Help from a Car Accident Lawyer
Many people recommend that Virginia car accident victims enlist the help of a lawyer to protect their rights by helping them to get the compensation they are entitled to. Insurance companies are notorious for trying to pay accident victims less than the full amount of compensation they are entitled to and need to pay, for all of the expenses incurred because of their injury. A good car accident lawyer that is experienced with successfully fighting powerful insurance companies to get their clients the compensation that they deserve and are entitled to, will likely be able to shoulder your legal burdens so that you don’t have to.
When someone is in pain and trying to recover from injuries, they should be able to focus their time and energy on healing- not on fighting a legal battle with a difficult insurance company that is trying to give them less money than they need to pay for all of the expenses that are the result of their accident. When someone is in the horrible situation of grieving over a loved one that was unexpectedly taken away by a fatal accident, they should be able to spend the time that they need to, grieving and trying as much as possible to get back to their life before this horrific event occurred. They should not have to spend their time and energy trying to make an insurance company pay their family what they are entitled to and what they need in order to continue on with their lives.
For a highly rated Virginia car accident lawyer that may be able to fight for your rights and to get you the compensation that you deserve, contact Cohen & Cohen for a free case evaluation with no obligations.
