Serious Car Accidents can be devastating

I know how blessed I am that I have never been in a serious car accident... but I know from working with families that have had such an experience, that they can be devastating. Bills. Bill Collectors. Missed Work. Appointments. Missed activities, vacations, employment opportunities. The list goes on and on - and while most of the time there is sufficient insurance to cover the damages, we sometimes get calls from families too late to help.

In Virginia, you have two years after the date of injury to file a lawsuit. You may still be receiving care, therapy, have limited activity - but you need to contact an attorney quickly - because you don't want to miss that chance at recovery.
