Taking on your legal burden after and accident or injury
Trust Our Personal Injury Lawyers in Norfolk, Roanoke, & Newport News
The physical, emotional, and financial issues that occur after an accident or injury are overwhelming. This is why it is vital that you have a dedicated attorney on your side to advocate for your right to compensation and hold any negligent party responsible. Our Virginia personal injury lawyers at Kalfus & Nachman PC work hard to ensure that you are able to take care of yourself and your family while you focus on recovering from your injuries.
Highly Experienced in Handling Complex Cases
Every case is unique. The more complex, the more the firm's resources, power, and experience count in obtaining maximum compensation. Insurance companies spend significant money to wear down injured clients and minimize settlements — but we are built to outlast them. The Insurance Research Council found that injury victims represented by an attorney recover 3.5 times more than those who go it alone. Our Virginia personal injury lawyers have the financial resources to litigate complex cases for as long as necessary, funding expert witnesses, accident reconstruction specialists, and every cost of litigation so you never face pressure to accept less than you deserve. Our case results — including a $10.9 million traumatic brain injury recovery and a $10.5 million truck accident settlement — reflect what a truly powerful law firm can achieve for its clients.
