Serious Personal Injury Lawyer in Alexandria, Virginia

Helping the Seriously Injured Reclaim Their Lives

When life changes in an instant due to a catastrophic injury, you deserve more than sympathy. You deserve a law firm that will fight like hell to get you the justice and resources you need to move forward. At Hollingsworth PLLC, we represent people in Alexandria and across Northern Virginia who are living with serious personal injuries caused by the negligence of others.

We don’t take these cases lightly. We invest the time, resources, and aggressive legal strategies necessary to go up against powerful insurance companies, corporations, and institutions. And we do it with one goal: full accountability and maximum compensation for you.

What Qualifies as a Serious Personal Injury Case?

Not all injuries are treated equally under the law or by insurers. We focus on high-impact, life-disrupting injuries that often require long-term care or result in permanent limitations. These include:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  
• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  
• Severe burns and disfigurement
  
• Amputations or loss of limb function
  
• Internal organ damage
  
• Complex fractures requiring surgery
  
• Vision or hearing loss
  
• Chronic pain syndromes like CRPS
  

These cases are medically complex and legally challenging, which is exactly why we take them on.

Common Causes of Serious Injury Cases We Handle

Our clients have been injured in a wide variety of traumatic events, including:

• Car and truck accidents
  
• Motorcycle and pedestrian accidents
  
• Unsafe premises and property negligence
  
• Construction site incidents
  
• Defective products
  
• Nursing home abuse or neglect
  
• Acts of violence or sexual assault
  

No matter how your injury occurred, if it was caused by someone else’s negligence or wrongdoing, we’re ready to hold them accountable.

How We Build a Strong Personal Injury Case

Serious injury cases require a deeper level of legal and investigative work. At Hollingsworth PLLC, we take a comprehensive, trial-ready approach:

• Conduct full scene investigations and witness interviews
  
• Collaborate with top medical experts and life care planners
  
• Calculate full economic and non-economic damages
  
• Document the long-term impact on your daily life, work, and relationships
  
• Build a compelling story that connects with judges and juries
  

We prepare every case for trial from day one, even if a settlement is likely. Insurance companies respect lawyers who are ready to go the distance.

Damages Available in a Serious Injury Lawsuit

Virginia personal injury law allows for the recovery of both economic and non-economic damages. Depending on your case, we may pursue compensation for:

• Medical expenses (past and future)
  
• Lost income and diminished earning capacity
  
• Physical pain and suffering
  
• Emotional distress and psychological trauma
  
• Permanent disability or impairment
  
• Loss of enjoyment of life
  
• Home modifications or assistive care needs
  

In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded to punish especially reckless behavior.

Real-Life Impact: Examples of How These Injuries Change Lives

• A construction worker who suffers spinal damage and can no longer lift or bend.
  
• A cyclist hit by a distracted driver who now requires 24/7 care.
  
• A mother who loses her leg in a commercial truck crash and has to relearn daily tasks.
  

These aren’t just claims. They’re people’s lives. We don’t let that get lost in the process.

Time Is Critical – Don’t Wait to File

Virginia’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases is generally two years from the date of injury. But in serious injury cases, early legal action is especially important. Evidence can disappear, memories fade, and the insurance company will start building their defense immediately.

Let us start protecting your case while you focus on healing.

We Handle the Legal Stress So You Don’t Have To

Dealing with doctors, adjusters, medical bills, and paperwork while also managing pain is overwhelming. When you hire Hollingsworth PLLC, we take all of that off your plate. We coordinate with providers, manage all communications, and fight delays, denials, or lowball offers.
