How A Chesapeake Car Accident Lawyer Can Help

The Rutter Mills attorneys work on contingency, meaning they don’t make any money unless you get compensation. A lawyer’s pay is simply a set percentage of your settlement, so you will not have to worry about paying for any lawyer’s fees.

Without a lawyer, you are vulnerable to predatory insurance companies who want to reduce your payout. Our incentive is to get you the greatest amount possible for your recovery. Let us handle the legal battle while you focus on healing.

We will be with you through the entire legal process to make sure your needs are met and your rights are protected. One of our team members can meet with you to talk over your case and the next steps for getting you back on your feet. Focus on your recovery while we get you the compensation.

Filing A Car Accident Claim

Inexperienced lawyers in Chesapeake, smaller firms, or people without lawyers don’t have the same access to the expert resources we have. Our investigation team will use our vast resource base to ensure your claim is well-documented and supported.

To secure your compensation, our skilled lawyers will gather proof the other driver was at fault through:

Pictures or video of the accident
Witness statements
Testimony from accident reconstruction experts
Driving and criminal records of the other driver
Official reports made by the Chesapeake Police Department

Evidence can be difficult, especially if your accident involved multiple cars and it was unclear if a single driver was the cause. However with over 65 years of experience as a firm, our team of Chesapeake car accident lawyers and investigators have the know-how to gather clear evidence of who caused the crash and how it affected you.

Let our highly skilled lawyers uncover hidden details and handle the legal side of things while you prioritize recovering from your accident.

Every personal injury claim has a statute of limitations, which is your deadline to file a claim. It’s important to meet this deadline or else you risk losing your chances of getting compensation. Virginia’s statute of limitations for car accident claims is 2 years.

Two years may seem like plenty of time to file your car accident claim, but you should contact an attorney as soon as you can. Having as much time as possible is imperative to investigating a car accident, the evidence is still fresh and there is a chance your statute of limitations could be much shorter, such as if a government agency or department is involved.

Our Rutter Mills team is always on call to help you better understand your deadline to file. Do not hesitate to contact us and learn more about how we can help you.

The details of your accident determines how much money you’re owed. You may have had a minor fender bender or a run-in with an 18-wheeler. Either way, every car crash is different, and so are everyone’s needs.

Damages

Your personal injury lawyer will caclulate your damages, which will serve as our negotiation point with the insurance company. We use this number to ensure they don’t shortchange you and negotiate with insurance companies for your compensation.

Medical bills
Payment for therapy and other ongoing treatment
Any special accommodations your injury requires, like in your home and for transportation
Lost wages due to missed work, including any work you can’t perform in future

Victor B.

What I loved about my Rutter Mills experience was the team approach they provided from start to finish. The paralegal Selena D. was always keeping me updated and accurately collecting information to make sure my case was on a strong foundation. My attorney, Adam Lotkin raises the bar to the highest standard. Adam's knowledge, experience, and grit afforded me the strongest settlement in my case. Top 1% settlement is the best way to describe it. Your attorney matters and I am so glad I choose Rutter Mills, Adam Lotkin, and team to represent my case. I will use Rutter Mills again for my future needs.

Christin B.

I wish I had called Rutter Mills from the beginning. I tried to deal with the insurance company myself, big mistake. Adam Lotkin and his paralegal Ruth Simmons were amazing. They walked me through the process and got me a settlement almost ten times the offer from the insurance company. Trust Rutter Mills, you won't be disappointed!

Daniel M

Adam Lotkin, Max Baker, and the team behind them are amazing people. They did a great job with communicating and explaining each step of the process and they do the absolute best in ensuring their clients are taken care of. For my case in specific, we expected to wait 2 year to settle l, but through the team’s hard work and a little luck, it was settled in less than a year. I would not hesitate to come back to them if I ever needed to.

Autumn D.

Dont make it harder than it needs to be. Choose Rutter Mills! I had never needed to contact an attorney, it was all new to me and I was in pain from being rear ended while at a stop light. I did like most and checked reviews. I called Rutter Mills and not for one second did I ever doubt my decision. I had the pleasure of working with attorney Andrew Boran and his paralegal Kathy Saunders. They were there for me every step of the way. Extremely understanding and knowledgeable. They stayed in touch with me and went to bat for me. I highly recommend them to anyone. Don't make it harder than it needs to be on yourself, CALL RUTTER MILLS NOW!

Shelley was with us from start to finish with our case. She explained everything to us that we did not understand. Very patient if we had a question. If she did not know it, found out the answer and got back with us. She went above and beyond to help us with everything.
