(FAQs)
- Why should I hire a personal injury attorney instead of handling the case on my own?
Hiring an experienced attorney is crucial when dealing with insurance companies, legal paperwork, and the complexities of proving liability and damages. At Burnett & Williams, we ensure that no detail is overlooked and that you receive the maximum compensation you’re entitled to under Virginia law. - How can I tell if I have a valid personal injury claim?
If you’ve suffered harm due to someone else’s negligence—such as in a car or truck accident, slip and fall, or a defective product—you may have a valid claim. During your free consultation, our attorneys will review the circumstances of your injury and help determine whether your case has merit. - What should I prepare before meeting with an attorney?
For your initial consultation, bring any medical records, accident reports, photographs, insurance information, and a list of expenses or lost wages related to your injury. The more information you can provide, the better we can assess your case. - How are legal fees and costs handled?
We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay any legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. Legal costs, such as court filing fees or expert witness fees, are also typically covered upfront and deducted from your final settlement or verdict. - How is the value of my personal injury case determined?
The value of your claim depends on several factors, including the severity of your injury, medical costs, lost wages, future treatment needs, and the impact on your quality of life. Our experienced team carefully evaluates every aspect of your case to ensure fair compensation. - How long will it take to resolve my case?
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether liability is disputed, and if a trial is necessary. Some cases settle within a few months, while others can take longer. We will keep you informed every step of the way and work efficiently to resolve your case. - What happens if my case goes to trial?
While many personal injury cases are settled out of court, some require litigation. If your case goes to trial, Burnett & Williams’ trial attorneys will vigorously represent your interests, present your evidence clearly, and advocate for the full compensation you deserve. - What types of insurance might apply to my case?
Common forms of applicable insurance include:
- Automobile liability insurance(covers the at-fault driver’s damages)
- Medical Payment (MedPay)insurance (covers your medical bills regardless of fault)
- Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UIM)coverage (applies if the other driver lacks sufficient insurance)
- Health insurance, which can help cover initial medical costs
Our legal team will identify all available insurance sources and guide you on how to proceed with claims.
- Should I sign anything from the insurance company?
Do not sign a medical release or settlement agreement from an insurance company without legal advice. These documents can limit your rights or give insurers access to unrelated medical history. Always consult with your attorney first. - How soon should I contact a doctor and a lawyer after an injury?
You should seek medical attention immediately after any injury. Prompt medical care not only protects your health but also documents the injury for legal purposes. Once stabilized, reach out to a lawyer as soon as possible to protect your legal rights and start building your case.
