What Types of Injury Cases Do We Handle?

Personal injury law covers a wide range of accidents and wrongful actions. If another person or company’s negligence caused you harm, our team can help you pursue full and fair compensation. Here are some of the most common types of cases we handle.

Car Accidents

Virginia roads are busy and often unpredictable. When a distracted or aggressive driver causes a crash, the injuries can be severe and long-lasting. In these situations, a Virginia auto accident attorney from our firm can investigate who is at fault and take on the insurance company so you can focus on recovery.

Truck Accidents

Crashes involving commercial trucks often lead to catastrophic injuries. These cases require a close look at driver logs, trucking company policies, and federal safety violations. Our personal injury attorneys in Virginia understand how to navigate complex trucking claims and fight diligently for the compensation you deserve.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists face a higher risk of serious injury when drivers fail to watch the road. Even low-speed collisions can lead to broken bones, brain injuries, or spinal damage. We represent riders throughout Virginia and know how to work to hold negligent drivers accountable.

Dog Bite Injuries

An aggressive or uncontrolled dog can cause deep wounds, infection, and lasting trauma. Children and older adults are especially vulnerable to serious harm in these attacks. Our team can pursue claims against negligent dog owners and seek payment for medical care, scarring, and emotional distress.

Premises Liability

From wet floors and broken handrails to poor lighting and unsecured hazards, unsafe property conditions can cause serious accidents. Property owners have a legal responsibility to keep their premises reasonably safe for guests and visitors. When they fail to do so, we fight to hold them financially responsible.

Boating and Water-Related Accidents

Accidents on the water often involve high speeds, poor visibility, or intoxicated boat operators. The injuries can be devastating, whether on a lake, river, or coastal waterway. We can pursue claims against negligent boaters, rental companies, or anyone who failed to follow safety rules.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

Every injury case is different, but under Virginia law, you may be entitled to recover compensation for:

Medical expenses (past and future),
Lost wages and reduced earning capacity,
Pain and suffering,
Emotional distress,
Property damage,
Permanent disability or disfigurement, and
Loss of consortium (in wrongful death cases).

We can assess the full value of your claim and fight to recover everything you deserve, not just what the insurance company offers.

How Virginia Personal Injury Law Works

Injury law in Virginia can be complex. Here are a few key things to know:

There is a statute of limitations. In most personal injury cases, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Wait too long, and you could lose your chance to seek justice.
Virginia is a contributory negligence state. Virginia law may bar you from receiving compensation if an insurer or court finds you even 1% at fault for your injuries. Working with an experienced Virginia personal injury attorney is critical to help ensure you have a strong, evidence-based case that protects your rights.
Evidence makes the difference. Strong documentation—such as medical records, accident reports, witness statements, and expert testimony—forms the foundation of a successful personal injury claim. We know what to gather and how to present your case effectively, whether in court or settlement discussions.

These rules highlight the importance of working with a knowledgeable legal team. At Tavss Fletcher, we guide you through every step of the legal process while working to safeguard your rights from start to finish.
