Hello everyone. I’m Jim Parish. I’m a personal injury accident attorney in Virginia. A common question that people ask when they come to my office is; “how much is my claim worth?”
The answer is… I don’t know; not till I know a great deal more about your case. Every case is different. Every case is special. And every case is unique. The key in maximizing the amount of compensation or money that you get for your case is to make sure that every avenue is explored and every area of potential recovery is maximized.

This is what can really help drive the value of your case up and get you more money. I hope that helps folks, thanks.
