Do I need a lawyer or can I settle my personal injury case on my own?
If you aren’t sure whether or not you need a lawyer, or even if you’re pretty sure you can handle it on your own, I encourage you to give our office a call and we’ll set up a free initial case review. At BenGlassLaw, we ONLY accept cases if we are confident we can add value and will never pressure you to hire us if we don’t think you need to.
A big determining factor in whether or not you need a personal injury attorney for your situation is the severity of your injuries. If you’ve only suffered minor injuries, your accident case probably won’t be worth more than a few thousand dollars.
We have plenty of resources to help you handle a case on your own or decide if our team is the right fit for you:
What damages can I claim after a personal injury?
If you’ve been injured as a result of someone else’s negligence, you’re entitled to compensation for the losses you’ve suffered. In other words, the personal injury claim is meant to “make you whole,” balancing out what’s been taken from you. Potential damages include:
- Medical expenses (including those you’ll likely need in the future, such as ongoing physical therapy)
- Lost wages (including future lost wages and reduced earning capacity—for example, if you have to switch to fewer hours or lower-paying work)
- Reasonable compensation for non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering, emotional trauma, disfigurement, or loss of relationship with a loved one.
In rare cases, you could also receive punitive damages above and beyond the damages meant to compensate you for losses. These might be in play if the responsible party acted with extreme recklessness or malice—think drunk driving or excessive speeding.
How should I pay for my medical bills after being injured in an accident that wasn’t my fault?
After being injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault, your focus should be on recovery and not on figuring out how your medical treatment is going to be paid.
In Virginia, the answer depends on factors like the type of accident that caused your injuries (a car accident, dog bite, slip and fall, etc.), as well as your health insurance, MedPay coverage, and who was at fault.
Virginia’s contributory negligence laws can bar you from receiving compensation if you’re even 1% at fault. Understanding insurance and how the accident happened is key. Having an experienced personal injury attorney on your side can help navigate this process.
