Navigating Virginia’s Accident Laws

Virginia is one of the few jurisdictions in the country that still adheres to the strict doctrine of contributory negligence. Under Virginia Code section 8.01-243, victims generally have two years from the date of the incident to file a lawsuit. However, because of the state’s fault rules, if you are found even 1% responsible for the accident, you may be barred from recovering any compensation.

This high legal bar makes it essential to have an experienced advocate who can meticulously document evidence from the start.

What if my accident happened on a military base?

Accidents also occur on federal property. These cases can fall under the Federal Tort Claims Act.

How do I prove the other driver was at fault?

We utilize Virginia’s Rules of the Road to establish negligence. By analyzing skid marks, vehicle “black box” data, and local traffic camera footage, we build a compelling case to overcome contributory negligence defenses.
