Car Accident Attorneys in Richmond

The Richmond car accident attorneys at Douglas A. Lines, P.C. worked for a major insurance company before representing accident victims. With nearly 30 years’ combined experience, they are uniquely qualified to serve plaintiffs who have been in Richmond automobile accidents.

At Douglas A. Lines, P.C., our understanding of the broad issues around auto accident liability means we know how insurance companies operate and we know how to help you. As car accident attorneys in Richmond, we have written on various related topics, include the following:

  • Auto insurance notice requirements: Policy modifications, status of the insured relative to premium payment obligations and other policy changes can be complicating factors in Richmond auto accidents.
  • Underinsured/uninsured motorist coverage: Many auto and truck insurance policies provide for underinsured motorists who are involved in an accident. This is an added protection to policyholders and third parties in an accident.
  • Fleet auto insurance policies: The unique nature and inherent risks of multiple drivers operating the vehicles of a single owner creates its own set of legal and risk management challenges.
  • Cooperation obligations in motor vehicle insurance: A policyholder is required to cooperate with his or her insurer in a reasonable fashion. Also, the confidentiality is breached when the plaintiff and defendant in litigation are found to be acting together, perhaps to inflate the size of the claim.

The firm principals write on these topics to share their knowledge of how the law affects motorists today. Changing laws and ongoing case histories can and do alter how claims are settled. Sometimes, that means that rules and outcomes are radically different that they might have been 20 years ago.
