Hampton Car Accident Lawyer

If you have been injured in a motor vehicle collision, reaching out to a Hampton car accident lawyer is a vital step in safeguarding your financial and physical recovery.

At Mike Slocumb Law Firm, our Hampton personal injury lawyers understand that a crash on I-64 or near the Coliseum District is more than a legal claim, it is a significant disruption to your life.

Contact Mike Slocumb Law Firm today for a free, no-obligation consultation; or call us at (804) 500-6340.

We provide the assertive advocacy needed to navigate Virginia’s complex insurance environment.

Navigating Virginia’s “1% Fault” Rule

Virginia is one of the few jurisdictions in the nation that follows the strict doctrine of pure contributory negligence. Under this standard, if a victim is found even 1% responsible for the accident, they are generally barred from recovering any damages. Furthermore, Virginia Code section 8.01-243 typically sets a two-year statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit.

Because the margin for error is so slim, our team focuses on gathering definitive evidence, such as traffic camera footage and black box data, to protect you from unfair blame.

Can I still file a claim if the other driver was uninsured?
