From what I can sort out, you were awarded a... View More

A Virginia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. I'm sorry this happened to you.

It sounds like you had a personal injury case and hired a personal injury law firm that was probably charging you on a contingent fee basis. You won the case but were disappointed with the award. The award can be based on a number of issues, so its impossible to judge, from the award, whether the... View More

yes, sure, you should get right attorney for your case, no matter where you live. If you find an attorney not licensed in VA that attorney may need to associate with VA counsel, but you have the right to look anywhere.

Your case is on appeal and you have collateral issues/questions-----you do not mention whether or not you have an attorney. If you do not have one, then I think you need to hire an attorney, or at least pay an attorney for a 1hour consultation and ask him the questions you have. If you do have an... View More

A Viriginia attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. In general nationwide, if the person is an employee and is injured in the course of employment, workers' comp should pick up medical bills (and lost wages if time was missed from work). Good luck

But there could be other applicable policies. For example, if you live with a family member... View More

A Virginia attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. One option you have here would be to reach out to attorneys to discuss. Another could be to try your luck in reposting and adding Libel & Slander as a category. There's no guarantee that your question would... View More

A witness may be asked about felony convictions and misdemeanors involving moral turpitude - lying, cheating and stealing. These types of crimes reflect on the credibility of the witness.

A lot depends on what the person did, was it on video, etc. Certainly, there is no excuse for chasing someone out of a stall. However in most states emotional distress cases are difficult. You should consult with a member of the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association for the county where it happened.... View More

The law says you need to drive at a speed that will allow you to stop if something happens ahead. You indicate you may have not been able to stop. That raises issues. You should not make any more statements, not discuss this online. The insurance on the car you were in may give you an attorney. If... View More
