Rear-end collisions are among the most common types of accidents, often occurring due to driver error or distractions such as texting.

Traumatic brain injuries, or TBI, can have devastating and long-lasting effects, including cognitive impairment and physical limitations.

Motor vehicle accidents can result in various types of broken bones, from simple fractures that may heal within weeks to more severe ones that require surgical intervention and long-term rehabilitation. Unfortunately, not all recoveries from fractures go according to plan and we have known several clients to have prolonged recovery from an auto accident due to a medical setback. This can be draining for someone already struggling with the challenges of a serious car crash. Williams DeLoatche attorneys have extensive experience managing claims that involve negotiating compensation in these situations and many others and would encourage anyone struggling from a prolonged recovery to contact us and let us start trying to figure out who is responsible for what.

Common injuries from seatbelts and airbags include bruising, fractured bones, and injuries to internal organs. We are proficient in handling cases where safety devices cause injury, ensuring that clients receive proper compensation. If you were injured as a result of a seatbelt or an airbag, you should contact a Williams DeLoatche attorney to prevent the loss of critical evidence in your case.
Whiplash is a common injury in motor vehicle accidents, especially in rear-end collisions. Despite often lacking the corresponding clear medical evidence of physical injury, whiplash can lead to prolonged pain requiring physical therapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, and other significant medical expenses to seek relief. Williams DeLoatche attorneys are experienced in proving these cases in Court. However, you can help yourself by being sure to describe all your accident-related injuries to all your doctors and making sure your pain experience is properly documented by your treating providers.
It is crucial to be aware of the time limit for filing a car accident lawsuit in the jurisdiction where the accident occurred. This is known as the statute of limitations and the clock starts running on the day of your accident. Our team at Williams DeLoatche, P.C., can help you understand these time limits and ensure that your claim is filed promptly to protect your rights. If you are thinking about bringing an action against someone that injured you in a car accident, act quickly or risk losing your right to go forward.
Determining who is at fault in an auto accident involves understanding the details of the accident and applying the law. No two cases are the same, and you need an attorney that will take the necessary time to understand your case. Our attorneys at Williams DeLoatche are experts in dissecting the facts of each case to establish liability accurately, ensuring that all parties responsible are held accountable.
Virginia is one of the few states that still operates under the strict contributory negligence rule, which can completely bar recovery if you are even slightly at fault for causing your accident. Williams DeLoatche is adept at navigating this challenging aspect of Virginia law, advocating to minimize any fault attributed to you and maximizing your potential for recovery. If possible, it is important to speak with an attorney before you speak with an insurance company on a recorded phone line to discuss the accident’s details.
The police report is a key piece of information in any auto accident claim, detailing the facts, the potential parties involved and the initial assessments of fault. Williams DeLoatche ensures that this report is used effectively to support your claim, addressing any discrepancies that may exist. If you receive a copy of the police report, check to make sure all facts and information are accurate. Please call Williams DeLoatche to discuss any police report inaccuracy or any other aspect of the case that concerns you.
Witness accounts can provide crucial details that help reconstruct the accident scene and clarify the events leading up to the accident. Often, witnesses will stop and check on the occupants after an accident and then leave the scene prior to the conclusion of the police investigation. If possible, you should ask witnesses to stay on scene until they have given a statement to the police and have provided their contact information. If necessary, at least ask the witness to provide their phone number for you to contact them later. At Williams DeLoatche, we have tools to investigate accidents but a strong statement by a witness is often great evidence and much easier to produce.
Photos taken immediately after the accident can provide indisputable evidence of a range of factors related to the case, including the condition of the vehicles, the point of impact, injuries, and much more. These images are vital for our investigative team to establish how the accident occurred and the extent of damages for insurance and court presentations. Even though you may not be in any position to take photos, encourage others on-scene to take photos and to provide you with a way to get those photos. At Williams DeLoatche we have seen the value of powerful photos and videos taken immediately after a collision.
Documenting your injuries through medical records and associated bills is essential for validating your claim. Williams DeLoatche meticulously compiles this evidence to ensure you receive adequate compensation for all health-related expenses.
