Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in Tappahannock, Virginia?
In Virginia, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the injury. For claims against a government entity, you must file a notice within six months. Missing these deadlines can result in losing your right to sue.
What types of compensation can I recover in a personal injury case in Virginia?
You may recover economic damages like medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. Virginia does not cap damages in most personal injury cases, but punitive damages are limited to $350,000.
How does Virginia's contributory negligence rule affect my case?
Virginia is one of the few states that follows pure contributory negligence. If you are found to be even 1% at fault for the accident, you cannot recover any compensation. This makes it critical to have a lawyer who can argue that you were not at fault.
