If you have been injured in an accident, Tronfeld West & Durrett are here to help you seek justice.
When you have suffered injury from an accident which was the result of the negligence of another person or entity, you may not know where to turn for help. Each and every year hundreds of thousands of Americans are involved in a work injury, a slip and fall in a public place, a car collision with resulting injuries, medical malpractice injuries or injuries which result from a dangerous drug or a clearly defective medical product or device. Most of those who are injured are completely unfamiliar with how the legal system works as well as woefully unprepared for the amount of paperwork required and deadlines which must be met when a personal injury lawsuit is filed.
Perhaps you have suffered injuries from an accident which have subsequently affected your health, your work, your future, and your loved ones. The effects of an accident with injuries could last for weeks, months, or—in the case of catastrophic injuries—years, or even a lifetime.
Our attorneys are dedicated to pursuing our clients’ claims and obtaining results, whether through settlement or trial.

After a personal injury accident in Virginia, your immediate priority should be seeking medical attention, even if you don’t feel seriously injured at first. Documentation of your injuries is crucial. Next, gather as much information as possible, including photos of the scene, contact information of witnesses, and details about the incident. It’s important to avoid making statements or signing any documents from insurance companies before consulting with a personal injury attorney. An attorney can help guide you through the legal process and protect your rights.
In Virginia, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally two years from the date of the injury. This means you must file your lawsuit within this time frame, or you may lose your right to seek compensation. However, some exceptions may apply depending on the specifics of your case, such as cases involving minors or medical malpractice, so it's important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure your claim is filed on time.
Determining the value of a personal injury claim in Virginia can be challenging. Every case is unique, so there isn't a universal formula that applies to all claims.
