SERIOUS LAWYERS FOR SERIOUS INJURIES

Recovering from a serious injury or personal loss is a long and painful process. Its hard enough trying to put your life back together without having to fight for your rights or the financial resources you need to go on. Few of us have experience dealing with insurance companies or attorneys hired to protect the negligent. They can create endless delays or offer fair and adequate settlements that do not begin to cover your medical expenses much less lost wages, loss of independence, pain and suffering. Youve already been a victim once, you should have a say in determining the emotional, physical and financial damages youve incurred in accidents or cases of negligence.
Since 1988, the personal injury lawyers at Breit Drescher Imprevento & Walker have been helping people in Norfolk, Virginia Beach and across Hampton Roads restore their lives, get justice and fair compensation. Their impressive track record--verdicts, case results and awards speak for themselves, but the awards they are most proud of are those theyve obtained on behalf of their clients, real people whove suffered real injuries. Maybe thats why the firm and member attorneys Jeffrey Breit and Jack Drescher have been recognized by their peers, the editors of Best Lawyers in America, and repeatedly counted among the 10 top lawyers in Virginia by SuperLawyer Magazine.

Injured Motorcyclist Receives $150K Verdict
While leading a group of motorcyclists on Interstate 264, our client, the plaintiff, was suddenly forced to brake when a John Doe vehicle merged onto the highway and stopped in front of the group. The plaintiff experienced locking brakes and as a result the motorcycle spun out of control and hit a guardrail. He sustained an avulsion fracture of the right medial talus and road abrasions with scarring to both arms. This accident was investigated by a Virginia state trooper, however, there were no witnesses to these events and the anonymous driver fled the scene. The prosecution instructed the jury on contributory negligence and the defense maintained that the accident could have been avoided if plaintiff lost control exercised proper judgment. A verdict in the amount of $150,000 was the end result.
In 2008 the number of traffic fatalities in Virginia was the lowest its been in five years, but hit-and- run motorcycle accidents, such as these still occur. If you or a loved one has suffered an injury from a motorcycle accident, call Breit Drescher Imprevento & Walker, P.C. at 757.622.6000

Some people say personal injury law is just about money. It's not.
It's about rebuilding the face of a young girl shattered by a drunk driver. It's about college money for 2 young boys, their father killed by a speeding tractor trailer.
