Virginia Personal Injury Laws

Every state has its own rules regarding personal injury claims, and Virginia’s laws can significantly affect your case. Here are some of the most important considerations:

Contributory Negligence Rule

Virginia follows a pure contributory negligence rule, which means that if you are found even 1% at fault for your accident, you may be barred from recovering compensation. This strict law makes it especially important to have skilled legal representation that can fight against attempts to shift blame onto you.

Statute of Limitations

In most Virginia personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically means losing your right to pursue compensation, no matter how strong your case may be.

      "Professionalism at it’s finest!"
      Working with both Paul Hernandez and Colin O’Dawe during my case was a smooth and easy process. Their attention to detail and combined knowledge enabled us to achieve a successful and winning outcome. Both Paul and Colin are true professionals with a high level of customer service. The entire practice provides seamless and transparent communication. While also building a strong partnership at the same time. I would highly recommend the practice of Kalfus and Nachman.

      "Down to earth. No BS."
      What a weird time for all of this to happen. I'm grateful for the down to earth, no BS, approach to my case. Though we had to draw it out due to the pandemic and the idiocy of the military medical system, the K&N staff stuck with me and always treated me with kindness and respect. The ladies at the front are the sweet angels that make you miss your grandma. They deserve all the love!!
      - AshleyAnn
      "Ms Vaughn is awesome!!"
      Ms. Vaughn is awesome! She is a hard working and very compassionate attorney. Her assistant Brandon was also very hard working in my case. I can’t thank her enough for her knowledge, understanding and compassion. I highly recommend Kalfus and Nachman.

    Personal Injury FAQs


    How do I know if I have a personal injury case?

    If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence—whether in a car accident, on unsafe property, or by a defective product—you may have a claim. The best way to know for sure is to speak with a Roanoke personal injury lawyer who can evaluate your situation.

    How long will my case take?

    The length of a personal injury case varies. Some claims settle within a few months, while others may take years if litigation is necessary. We always strive to resolve cases efficiently without sacrificing the compensation you deserve.

    Will my case go to court?

    Most personal injury claims settle out of court. However, if the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial.

    How much compensation can I receive?

    The value of your case depends on many factors, including the severity of your injuries, the impact on your daily life, and the available insurance coverage. An attorney can help estimate the worth of your case after reviewing the details.

    What should I do after an accident?

    • Seek medical attention immediately
    • Report the accident (to the police, your employer, or the property owner)
    • Gather evidence such as photos, witness information, and medical records
    • Contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible
