1. "How can I find unbiased information about attorneys?" Here are the best places to go for information about top attorneys.
2. "Do I need a lawyer for my case?" Not always, and here's the reason why.
3. "What Happens if a non-attorney approaches me on behalf of an attorney?" Run. It's illegal.
4. "How Can I Find an experienced, Board-Certified attorney in Virginia?" Here's where you can go to find a listing of them.

1. "Can I try to settle my car accident case myself?" Yes, and we've even published a book about which you can order for free. But you should only do so if it is a smaller, less complicated case, such as a property damage only case.
2. "Should I speak to the insurance adjuster?" You will want to read this page first, but sure, you can speak to an insurance adjuster.
3. "Should I Sign the medical records release for the insurance adjuster?" Only if you don't mind who sees your confidential medical records.
4. "What is 'contributory negligence' in a car accident case? Virginia's harsh "1% Rule"

    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!

Warning: 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 these cases are lengthy, intrusive and as costly as possible for you. Insurance companies have no qualms about denying responsibility 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 competent, experienced, trial attorney to handle your claim.
