Ashburn, Virginia Personal Injury Attorneys

Skilled Lawyers for Personal Injury Victims in Ashburn, VA

If you have been hurt as a result of somebody else's negligent behavior, you can take action by filing a personal injury claim. Full compensation for your injuries should cover more than just your medical expenses. You might also receive payment for missed days of work, your pain and suffering, or ongoing care needed to address a permanent disability incurred from the accident. A seasoned personal injury lawyer can gather evidence and negotiate with insurance companies, fighting for your right to a full payout. The attorneys at Robinson Law, PLLC have years of experience in personal injury cases, and we endeavor to obtain maximum compensation in every case.

Types of Personal Injury Cases

At Robinson Law, PLLC, we handle numerous types of personal injury cases, including:

• Car Accidents: Motor vehicle crashes frequently result in debilitating injuries that can put you out of a job for an extended period of time. In the worst cases, a car accident could leave you with a permanent disability that requires continual care and/or treatment.
• Slip-and-Fall Accidents: These accidents fall under the category of premises liability, in which a property owner can be held financially responsible for injuries inside a private residence or place of business that occur because of hazards that should have been addressed. Often, slip-and-fall accidents are the result of broken stairs, wet floors, or poor lighting.
• Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect: It is an unfortunate fact that elders sometimes suffer harm while in the care of understaffed or poorly vetted nursing homes. Issues such as bedsores, malnutrition, and broken bones can result from improper care or intentional abuse.

The main element of a personal injury claim is establishing fault for the damages you have suffered, which are usually attributed to an act of negligence. Our lawyers will take a thorough look at the site of the accident to compile evidence. Relevant evidence may include witness statements, video footage, crash reports for car accidents, accident reports for slip-and-fall claims, and photographs.

Traumatic Brain Injuries

Personal injury cases involving traumatic brain injuries, or TBIs, are often among the most serious. A sudden impact or jolt to the head can incur permanent brain damage, which may affect your employment opportunities or your self-sufficiency. The long-term effects of a TBI may include:

• Difficulty recalling or retaining information
• Struggles with communication and/or understanding others
• A permanent change in mood
• Difficulties with concentration
• Fatigue

If you or a loved one has suffered a traumatic brain injury due to another person's reckless conduct, it is critical that you get the most out of your claim. Compensation for a TBI should take into account any arrangements for long-term care, loss of income, and expenses for your medical care. Additionally, you can sue for non-economic damages that cannot be quantified with a hard dollar amount. Non-economic damages may factor in your diminished quality of life, depression, and other emotional hardships resulting from the accident.

After suffering a traumatic brain injury, an insurance company may reach out to you offering a quick settlement. While this upfront amount may be appealing in the short term, it rarely represents the full amount of compensation you can receive. As such, we advise that you have an attorney review the offer and negotiate a settlement that will fully meet your needs.
