If a Virginia car accident has completely interrupted your normal life,
you are like many clients who stay awake at night wondering:
  • Who will pay my medical bills?
  • How can I recover my lost wages from work?
  • Who must pay for the repairs to my car?
  • Can I receive fair settlement for my injuries?
  • How do I find the best Virginia car accident lawyer for my case?

WATCH OUT for Hidden Deadlines!
Many accident victims that have taken a “wait and see” approach to find out the hard way that there are STRICT time limitations for bringing a Virginia car accident injury claim. As time goes by and their injuries have not gotten any better, victims then seek help for chronic pain or mounting hospital or medical bills. If you wait too long, the door to justice is closed forever. Contact an accident lawyer at our office today and ensure that your legal rights are protected.

Dealing with Insurance Companies 
We strongly advise you not to speak to an insurance adjuster about your Virginia car accident case until you speak with our lawyers first. Insurance adjusters are trained to get you to say things that will ruin your case and often even try to convince you that hiring a lawyer is not in your best interest. They also train their adjusters in methods to delay or deny claims even for their own policy holders. (Click here for a report on the TOP TEN WORST insurance companies!) Profits for insurance companies have jumped dramatically over the last ten years, despite the growing number of driver distractions. Get experienced help in dealing with adjusters to avoid wrecking your own case. Remember, the insurance company is not looking out for your best interest, and is hoping that you will sign away your rights for a fraction of the actual value of your case. 

Motor Vehicle Accident Cases We Handle
The Law Offices of Richard J. Serpe focuses on victims who have suffered serious injuries in Virginia car accidents.  Types of cases we handle include:

+ wrongful death cases
+ traumatic brain injuries
+ motorcycle accidents
+ pedestrian accidents
+ drunk driving accidents
+ bicycle accidents
+ tractor trailer accidents

We also advise you to stay away from lawyers who promise you a fast settlement. Lawyers who make this promise usually put their own best interest before your best interest. We limit the number of cases that are accepted because we want to give every client the full attention and the representation that they deserve.

We encourage you to contact us to discuss your case and we will explain to you how we can help relieve your stress and bring your life, as close as possible, to normal. Our accident lawyers are available to handle car, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian and other accident cases in Virginia. To speak with us immediately call toll free 877-544-5323.

How Insurance Companies Deny, Delay, Confuse, and Refuse
Brought to you by the American Association for Justice. The publication reveals the tricks of their trade, and what you can do about it! "This report describes some of the most egregious ways the insurance industry attempts to make money at the expense of consumers." [PDF]

 

Drunk and Distracted Drivers
One look at the statistics reveals that auto accidents are a serious problem in the United States. National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) statistics show over 2.5 million injuries and over 42 thousand deaths were caused by motor vehicle accidents in 2006.

 

10 Rules for Dealing with Insurance Companies
You do NOT need to give a recorded statement, so don't! There's a good reason insurance companies record statements, and you can bet they do it to help deny claims not to help pay them. If you are represented by a lawyer, ask the insurance company to contact your lawyer to obtain any information they need. 

 

The 6 Most Common Causes of Car Crashes
After the world's first automobile-related fatality, which occurred in London in 1896, the coroner said: "This must never happen again." Little did he know that from then on, some 25 million people would have died in vehicle-related accidents, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
