Montgomery County Virginia Law Firm

Serving Montgomery County and the New River Valley

Montgomery County is home to Blacksburg, Christiansburg, and rural communities such as Riner, Shawsville, Elliston, and Prices Fork. It is a county of students, professors, factory workers, farmers, and families who have lived here for generations. Williams DeLoatche, P.C. has served Virginians for more than a century, and we represent Montgomery County clients from our Roanoke office.

What We Handle

• Car accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Trucking accidents
• Other personal injury claims
• Wrongful death
• Traumatic brain injury
• Drunk driving accidents
• Traffic law matters, including DUI charges

Two Very Different Kinds of Traffic

On one side, Interstate 81 climbs through hilly terrain with heavy truck traffic. On the other, U.S. 460 and the streets around Virginia Tech carry students, buses, cyclists, and game-day crowds. Rural roads add farm vehicles, winding curves, and deer. Each setting creates different risks, and we take those differences into account.

Helping Students and Parents

When a student is hurt or charged with a traffic offense, parents often have as many questions as the student does. With the student’s permission, we can include family members, explain the process, and help everyone understand what comes next.

What Clients Can Expect

You will be able to reach your attorney, get regular updates, and receive honest advice. Injury cases are handled on contingency, which means no attorney’s fee unless we recover compensation for you.

Injury Cases We Handle

Our Montgomery County clients include commuters hurt on I-81, students hit while walking or biking near campus, motorcyclists injured on rural roads, and families affected by truck crashes. We also help people injured in falls at apartments, stores, and other properties.

Traffic Charges and Your Record

Speeding on I-81 or the U.S. 460 bypass can lead to more than a fine. A conviction can add DMV points and raise insurance rates, and reckless driving is a criminal offense in Virginia. We explain how a conviction could affect you and what options may be available.

Choosing a Law Firm

Ask who will handle your case, how you will be kept informed, and how fees work. We answer those questions openly so you know what to expect before you decide.

Drunk Driving Accidents and DUI Charges

With a large university, busy weekends, and long rural roads, Montgomery County sees its share of impaired driving. We help people injured by drunk drivers pursue compensation. Under Virginia Code § 18.2-266, it is illegal to drive with a BAC of 0.08% or higher, or while impaired by alcohol or drugs. A victim’s civil claim is separate from the criminal case, and in some cases Virginia Code § 8.01-44.5 allows punitive damages against a driver with a BAC of 0.15% or higher. We also help drivers facing DUI and other traffic charges understand the charge and their options.

Our History and Values

Our firm’s roots go back more than a century, to a time when a lawyer’s word carried real weight. We still believe in honest advice, hard work, and treating clients with respect. Those values guide how we serve New River Valley clients today. Read more about our history.

Rural Roads and Farm Traffic

Outside Blacksburg and Christiansburg, communities like Riner, Shawsville, and Elliston rely on winding two-lane roads. Farm equipment, logging trucks, and wildlife are part of everyday driving. When a crash happens in these areas, there may be few witnesses, and emergency care may be farther away. We know how to investigate these crashes and document their full impact.

Navigating Your Case

Most clients have never been through a legal process before. We explain each step in plain language, from gathering records to negotiating with insurers or preparing for court. You will always know what is happening and what comes next.

Injuries We Often See

Crashes on I-81 and U.S. 460 can cause neck and back injuries, concussions, and broken bones. Pedestrians and cyclists near campus often suffer fractures and head injuries. Some symptoms take days to appear, so prompt medical care is important. Emotional effects, such as anxiety about driving, can also be part of a claim. We work with your doctors to understand the full extent of your injuries before we discuss settlement.
