Car Accident Attorney
Its is an unfortunate fact that there are many accidents on the busy roads of Falls Church and neighboring northern Virginia communities. In many cases, innocent people are injured due to another driver’s inattentive or reckless driving.
We put your interest ahead of the insurance company. You should not sign any releases relating to your personal injury claim without having them reviewed by counsel. Likewise, you should not accept any checks from the insurance company unless you are prepared to reach a settlement with them. Typically, it is not advisable to do that until you know the full extent of your injury.
Compensation for injuries resulting from a vehicle accident
When you are involved in an automobile collision in Northern Virginia you are certainly entitled to know who will pay your medical bills, how will you support your family during your period of recovery and what other rights do you have as far as a monetary recovery. Your damages may consist of:
Nursing Home Injuries
Victims of nursing home negligence and their families are entitled to fair and just compensation for injuries or death caused by inappropriate care. Nursing home residents are among the most helpless and the most dependent of people within the healthcare system. They need someone to defend them.
Premises Liability – Slip and Fall
When an injury results from a slip and fall due to the fault of another you may be entitled to compensation. In these cases, you need a premises liability attorney who can assess the causes and determine if filing a claim is the appropriate action.
Premises liability claims generally require proof that the owner/manager knew of the defect in the premises that caused the injury. That proof comes through investigation and discovery of the case by a competent injury attorney.
Business owners owe a legal duty to customers and others lawfully on their premises to maintain the premises in a reasonably safe condition. If you have been injured as a result of the negligence of a property owner, contact us.
Wrongful Death
A wrongful death claim may arise from an automobile accident, medical malpractice, slip and fall or products liability. The term “wrongful death” simply describes the nature of the injury as opposed to the nature of the claim.
Wrongful death claims throughout the D.C. Metropolitan area are governed by the specific statute of that jurisdiction where the death occurred. As such it’s important to have an attorney who knows what particular benefits or compensation may be awarded under the wrongful death statute of that jurisdiction.
