Legally, We Can't Say That We Are the Best Personal Injury or Car Accident Law Firm in Virginia. But, Before You Talk to An Insurance Adjuster, Sign any Forms or Hire an Attorney For Your Virginia Injury or Malpractice Case--Take Two Minutes and Watch These Videos, then Order Our Free Books or give us a call.
Here are the Videos You Can Watch
So...What's So Bad About a "Free Consultation?"
Nothing really. We offer them. But, most lawyers have nothing but a "free consultation" to offer people who are asking themselves these questions:
"Do I even need an attorney in my situation?"
"What are my options?"
"How to I Find and Hire the Attorney Who Will be Right for Me?"
Over the years, our clients asked us to provide MORE. They told us that wanted a way to really find out more about personal injury and medical malpractice claims, and about lawyers in general, before travelling to an office. They told us that they had often wasted huge amounts of time visiting a lawyer, only to find out that they were not qualified to handle their case. We heard horror stories of lawyers pressuring people to sign fee contracts (and now these people were trying to get out of those contracts.) In some cases, clients were complaining that it took them a year or more to find out that their lawyer, indeed, was not a qualified personal injury or medical malpractice attorney.
We decided to fix that by offering one of a kind packages of consumer information on medical malpractice, personal injury, car accidents and disability insurance cases. I even wrote a book about how any consumer can read lawyer advertising. Over the years we have heard repeatedly:
"Thanks Ben, you are not like the attorneys they talk about on TV...
thank you for this information."
Remember, when you order, you get a great big FREE package of information and goodies, and our non-boring, non-lawyer-like consumer newsletter, all of which is designed to make you a smarter consumer BEFORE you talk to that adjuster, hire a lawyer or sign any forms.
You can always call our office and speak to Laura or Terry for fastest ordering or to have an opportunity to speak directly to Ben Glass. Call 703-591-9829.
Hey, I know this website isn't the prettiest on the Internet but each month it is the authoritative source on Virginia personal injury and malpractice law, information and verdict and settlement data for over 6,500 unique visitors, many of whom order our free materials, call for a consultation or use our "chatbox" and eventually apply to become clients of BenGlassLaw. The combination of information, visitors and inbound links from other sites that recognize BenGlassLaw.com as THE authoritative source for Virginia personal injury information, continues to make this website one of the highest ranking personal injury websites on the Internet.
Virginia accident and malpractice victims are beginning to realize that it's ridiculous to think that insurance companies, especially in tough economic times, are going to treat you fairly on their own. Its also foolhardy to think that all lawyers are the same or that "call us quick, no fee if no recovery" is a good reason to choose an attorney.
Virginia consumers have come to understand that most lawyer advertising is bad for consumers. Bad, because most lawyer ads don't provide any really USEFUL information. I blame the bar associations who seem to want lawyers to not advertise at all and I blame those lawyers who play the "your pain is my gain" game. Shame on your both!
The Insurance Company's Immediate Goal
The insurance companies would love for you to give them a recorded statement; sign their medical authorization; and accept their offer to let them "pay you a little something for pain and suffering" before you know what your rights are.

How the Insurance Companies Use Their Money to Change Your World
You've seen it in the news and you've seen it in your paychecks. Not only are insurance companies increasing their premiums and deductibles while shrinking their liability coverage, they're also expending vast sums of money to tilt the scales of law and justice in their favor. Insurance companies are spending millions of dollars to save many more millions by curbing the legal ability of medical malpractice, personal injury, and insurance victims to recover fair and just compensation in a court of law.
Insurance companies have already made substantial "progress" in influencing the legal system. In Virginia, for instance, insurance companies have made certain that the maximum recovery for a malpractice victim, no matter how severe his condition, is "capped". Many victims of medical malpractice may never be able to work again and may face ongoing medical bills that have spiraled into many millions of dollars, yet the law arbitrarily limits medical malpractice awards.
In addition to constantly working to set tighter limits on verdicts in medical malpractice and personal injury cases, insurance companies make sure that the legal processes involved in medical malpractice and personal injury cases are lengthy, intrusive and as costly as possible for you. Insurance companies have no qualms about denying responsiblity in even the most outrageous cases that often result in lifelong pain, suffering and loss for the victim and their family. Insurance companies hope that by making the process difficult, you will decide to not pursue your claim. They also hope that you will not find a compenent, experienced, trial attorney to handle your claim.

In Virginia and DC, you can turn to attorney Ben Glass for the best information available before you make your claim or exhaust your administrative appeal efforts. Contact Ben Glass today.
