Insurance & Car Accidents

Car Accident Attorneys in Norfolk, Newport News, Roanoke & Virginia

In Virginia, all motorists must carry car insurance with the following minimum coverage amounts:

  • Bodily injury or death of one person: $25,000
  • Bodily injury or death of two or more people: $50,000
  • Property damage: $20,000

If you do not have insurance, you must pay a $500 Uninsured Motor Vehicle (UMV) fee to the DMV every time you renew your vehicle registration. This fee does not provide you with any insurance coverage; it only allows you to legally drive an uninsured car at your own risk.

When Insurance Companies Give You the Runaround

Anytime you are involved in a car accident, you must report it to your insurance company as soon as possible. Although you’d think that the insurance company will pay you what you are owed as an accident victim, this is rarely the case. In fact, without an experienced Virginia car accident attorney on your side, you will most likely be offered a mere fraction of the compensation you are truly entitled to.

Insurance companies will look for any excuse to minimize or deny your claim, using various tactics to avoid payment, such as:

  • Making an early settlement offer that is much less than you deserve
  • Suggesting your injuries were not from the car accident
  • Saying you were at fault for the car accident
  • Downplaying your injuries
  • Hiding the fact that you are owed additional applicable coverage
  • Delaying negotiations for so long that you give up and accept their meager settlement

Before you accept any kind of payment offer from an insurance company, consult with one of our experienced Norfolk car accident lawyers. We can help you determine the true value of your claim.
