There Are Many Forms of Compensation In a Personal Injury Case
The standard type of compensation in a personal injury case is compensatory damages.

Richmond personal injury lawyer Josh Silverman can seek compensatory damages for the following and more:
- Pain and suffering

- Lost wages
- Lessened earning capacity
- Loss of companionship
There Are Several Subcategories of Personal Injury Cases
Personal injury law refers to a broad swath of potential case types. This includes truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip and falls, and the following more specific categories:
Property owners must follow legal standards set by premises liability laws. If they fail to safely maintain their property or if they behave in another negligent manner they can be liable in a premises liability lawsuit.
Medical professionals are held to a certain duty of care. If a doctor, nurse, or other health care worker harmed you or a loved one, our personal injury lawyer can pursue medical malpractice in Richmond, VA to seek financial compensation.
Some accidents end in total tragedy. If your loved one passed due to another’s negligence, our team can pursue wrongful death in Richmond, VA. These cases share similarities with personal injury claims and can also cover burial and funeral expenses.

Statute of Limitations Laws Set Strict Deadlines
Statute of limitations laws set hard deadlines for when different types of lawsuits must be filed by. These deadlines also vary state to state. If you fail to meet your deadline, you likely forfeit the ability to receive the compensation you need.
The deadline for filing a personal injury lawsuit in our state is two years from the date of the accident. You have two years from the date of your loved one's passing to file a wrongful death lawsuit.
Medical malpractice deadlines can be extended based upon specific circumstances. Let's take the example of a medical provider leaving a foreign object in your body. Regardless of when this occurred, you have one year to file from the time you discovered or reasonably should have discovered the object.
Claims Against the Government Have Even Stricter Deadlines
In some cases, your local municipality may be responsible for your injuries. Virginia provides just six months for a plaintiff to submit a written notice of claim. This makes it all the more important to speak to Mr. Silverman as soon as possible.
Mr. Silverman Can Stand Up For You
Statutes of limitations and other Virginia laws can be confusing. Some injured people are also overwhelmed by aggressive insurance company tactics. Their representatives often reach out to obtain out-of-context statements or pressure you into accepting a lowball settlement.
Our personal injury lawyer is here to explain all relevant laws, win cases, and handle each aspect of your personal injury claim for you. Retain him at no cost so he can handle all insurance company communication and seek the most compensation possible.
