Why Legal Representation Matters After a Workplace Injury

Workplace injuries can be life-changing, and the legal process can be overwhelming. After a workplace injury, many employees face an uphill battle:

  • Insurance companies may deny coverage or offer settlements that don’t cover long-term medical needs or lost wages.
  • Employers may dispute the cause of the injury or pressure you to return to work before you’re fully recovered.
  • Virginia workers compensation commission processes can be complex, and many injured workers find it challenging to navigate.

That’s where our workplace injury lawyers come in. We provide a full assessment of your legal options, whether through workers’ compensation claims, third-party personal injury lawsuits, or civil litigation. We protect your rights from day one, so you can focus on your recovery while we handle the legal complexities.

Understanding Workers’ Compensation in Virginia Beach

Workers’ compensation in Virginia provides financial support for employees injured on the job. It is a no-fault insurance system, which means you don’t need to prove that your employer was negligent to receive benefits.

  • Medical benefits: Coverage for treatment related to your workplace injury, including hospital stays, surgeries, physical therapy, and prescriptions.
  • Wage replacement: If you’re unable to work due to your injury, you can receive a percentage of your lost wages.
  • Rehabilitation: In some cases, medical coverage may include retraining if your injury prevents you from returning to your previous job.

If you’ve been injured in the course of employment, you may file a workers compensation claim. However, workers compensation cases don’t always fully address the economic damages you may face, which is where personal injury claims can come into play. If a third-party’s negligence contributed to your injury, we can pursue additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.

Our Results for Injured Workers in Virginia Beach

At Breit Biniazan, we have a strong track record of securing millions in compensation for our clients, including those injured in maritime, government contracts, and construction sites. Here are just a few examples of our results:

  • $1.45 Million – Traumatic Brain Injury Aboard a Navy Vessel
    A worker was struck by a heavy metal fitting, resulting in a traumatic brain injury. We secured $1.45 million to cover medical expenses, pain and suffering, and future wage loss.
  • $1.4 Million – Work Van Collision Leading to Brain Damage
    An employee suffered severe brain injuries from a workplace accident involving a company van. Our legal team secured $1.4 million for medical expenses and lost wages.
  • $1.33 Million – Independent Contractor Injured on a Navy Ship
    A contractor was crushed by improperly loaded cargo. We fought to hold the responsible parties accountable, recovering $1.33 million for the injury victim.

Common Types of Workplace Injuries We Handle

Workplace injuries can happen in various industries, and we’re equipped to represent workers in a wide range of on the job injuries, including:

  • Slips, trips, and falls from scaffolding, ladders, or uneven surfaces
  • Being struck by falling tools, debris, or machinery on construction sites
  • Repetitive motion injuries or overexertion in office or manufacturing environments
  • Motor vehicle accidents while on duty or between job sites
  • Injuries from lack of protective equipment or training
  • Workplace accidents involving defective machinery or unsafe conditions
  • Exposure to toxic substances or accidents in industrial settings

We ensure that injured workers are not left to deal with the consequences alone. Our team is here to help.

What to Do After a Workplace Injury

Taking the right steps after an injury on the job is crucial to protecting your legal rights and ensuring you receive the full benefits you’re entitled to. Here are the steps to take:

  1. Report the Injury: Notify your employer as soon as possible and complete a detailed accident report.
  2. Seek Medical Attention: Even if your injuries seem minor, seek medical care immediately. Medical bills can pile up, and early treatment ensures you’re on the path to recovery.
  3. Document the Incident: Take photos, note the location, time, and details of the accident. Gather contact information from witnesses.
  4. Contact a Workplace Injury Lawyer: Before you make statements to insurance companies or sign documents, speak to an experienced workers compensation lawyer.

Can I File a Lawsuit or Am I Limited to Workers’ Compensation?

In most cases, workplace injuries are handled through the workers compensation system. However, there are situations where you may be able to pursue a personal injury claim in addition to workers’ comp:

  • Third-party liability: If a contractor, equipment manufacturer, or another party’s negligence contributed to your injury, you may be eligible for additional compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
  • Civil litigation: In cases involving gross negligence or insurance defense, you may be entitled to punitive damages, which workers’ comp doesn’t cover.

At Breit Biniazan, we conduct thorough investigations to determine whether a third party is liable and help injured workers pursue all available avenues for compensation.

What Compensation Can You Recover After a Workplace Injury?

You may be entitled to the following compensation:

  • Medical expenses: Including hospital care, physical therapy, surgeries, prescriptions, and any future treatment required.
  • Lost wages: If your injury prevents you from working, you can recover compensation for lost income.
  • Pain and suffering: Compensation for emotional distress and physical discomfort caused by the injury.
  • Permanent disability: If your injury results in permanent impairment, you may be entitled to permanent disability benefits or permanent loss benefits.
  • Rehabilitation and vocational retraining: If you can no longer perform your previous job, we will help you access training for new employment.

Workplace Injury FAQs

Can I Sue My Employer for a Workplace Injury in Virginia Beach?

In most cases, workers’ compensation laws prevent employees from suing their direct employer for on the job injuries. However, if a third party (such as a contractor or equipment manufacturer) caused or contributed to your injury, you may be able to file a personal injury claim.

How Long Do I Have to File a Workplace Injury Claim in Virginia Beach?

The statute of limitations for workers compensation claims in Virginia Beach is typically two years from the date of the injury. However, it’s crucial to report your injury to your employer as soon as possible to ensure you don’t miss any important deadlines.

What If My Workers' Compensation Claim Is Denied?

If your workers compensation claim is denied, you have the right to appeal the decision. At Breit Biniazan, we can help you navigate the appeals process and fight for the benefits you deserve.

How Much Compensation Can I Receive for a Workplace Injury in Virginia Beach?

The amount of compensation you can receive depends on the severity of your injuries, medical costs, lost wages, and any long-term disability. Personal injury lawyers at Breit Biniazan have secured millions for injured workers, and we’re dedicated to helping you recover the maximum compensation.

I would recommend to family & friends."

Cobi M.

"Throughout 2019 and 2020 Attorney Kevin Biniazan helped me with a personal injury case. Aside from the professionalism and attentiveness one would expect from a quality law firm such as Breit Cantor Grana Buckner, I was taken by the fact that they agreed to take my case on a contingency basis, even though there was little evidence in my favor in the early stages of preparation. This meant the world to me. It meant that they believed in me, and my case, when two other firms declined to take the case. In late 2020 the case settled out of court and I received a substantial monetary award that exceeded my expectations. Thank you Kevin, and all your support staff for believing in me when many others did not!!!!"

Markgerszewski

"This law firm was highly recommended by a friend who had prior representation. I am very pleased with their professionalism and they kept me well informed of my injury case.

I encourage you to give them a call as you will have a pleasant experience with their representation!"

Scott S.

"My experience with Breit Biniazan and his team was very positive. They were very helpful, were always available, took time to explain the process, and answer any questions I had. A special thanks to Kellie for all her support and efforts. I always felt she was on my side and looking out for my best interest. I would highly recommend Mr. Binazan and his team and would not hesitate to use their services should the need arise."

Mark T.

"Michael Collett represented us in our suit, and he was incredible. He made quick, efficient work of getting our case positively resolved while also making sure to keep us updated along the way. We recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a personal injury suit.

Our suit had dragged on for five years, and we wondered if it would ever be finished. Once Mike was handed our case, he immediately got to work getting to know us and understanding the timeline of events. Additionally, as a prior military member, he understood that our case was not a traditional cut-and-dry lawsuit: our life continued while the company dragged it out in court, including PCSing overseas and then back to the US during COVID. This kind of personal understanding and attention to detail was instrumental to our case. Mike's background, compassion, attentiveness, and professionalism made the difference; without him, we could have had a very different outcome.

If you are in need of any representation for a personal injury suit, I highly recommend Michael and his colleagues."

Kim V.

"I'm an attorney in Nebraska and represented a Nebraska family who lost their son/brother due to an electrocution on a job site in Virginia. After handling the workers' compensation claim in Nebraska, I reached out to multiple law firms in Virginia, ultimately co-counseling with Kevin Biniazan on the Virginia third party claims. He worked the case up, secured experts, and ultimately tried the case to a jury. Kevin and his team did a fantastic job presenting the case, arguing points of law, and overall just demonstrated that they had put extraordinary time and effort into preparing the case for trial. They secured a 7-figure recovery on tough facts and were great to work with along the way. I highly recommend Kevin and his firm."

Aaron B.

"I give Kevin Biniazan and his team the highest rating I can. I had a case in Va Beach a few years ago, called a few attorneys but ended up going with Kevin because of the knowledge and compassion he showed. After telling Kevin my issue, he and his team did all the work. They took the time to listen to my concerns and feelings, they were informative and available at all times. Along with the success of my case, Kevin and his team gave me the opportunity and support I needed to begin healing. I couldn’t recommend enough!"

Brit T.

"Outstanding service! My case lasted approximately 2 years, the staff was more than patient with me and the multiple questions I had throughout the process. I highly recommend their services to all."

Donald B.

"I was injured in a motorcycle accident with a car driver and refered to Breit Biniazan by a second lawfirm from my home state. They were professional and got me through one of the most painful times in my life. I simply gave them what they needed and they took care of the rest, getting me proper compensation for my pain and suffering."

Kurtis P.

"I took a chance on this firm from a recommendation and I couldn’t be happier with their work and the results of my case. Kellie and Nilda are pure gold! Kellie kept me appraised of everything that was going on, timely and answered all my questions and concerns. I followed a recommendation; trust me, Breit Biniazan is the very best!"

Ally A.

"Kevin, Kylee and his team are the best in the business! They are the most trustworthy,hardworking,dedicated, honest, and morally outstanding people I've had the pleasure of knowing."

Edward D.

"My experience with the team at Breit Biniazan was nothing short of outstanding. They handled our case with the utmost professionalism and compassion. Kellie, their paralegal proved to be an invaluable support. Kellie was compassionate and her communication helped us through a tough time. I highly recommend Breit Biniazan."

Craig M.

"I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Beasley and Ms. Jennings. I was unfortunately involved in multiple crashes that I was a victim of and sought their firm, Breit Biniazan for help with medical bills and other issues. They worked with me for well over a year, coming to a successful resolution for my cases. They are incredibly passionate about their job and getting to an outcome desired for their plaintiffs. I would recommend their firm for any cases you may have, no questions asked."

Zach H.

"I’ve never been in a lawsuit, nor have I been to court, or had anything dealing with legal matter so all of this was pretty new to me, and 9/10 it was scary & heart racing. The only reason I got through it is because of Kevin. If it wasn’t for him with his patience, his commitment to his client, or the will to go the distance I never would’ve had confidence in any of this legal stuff. 10/10 recommend Breit Biniazan."

Tyler B.

"Kept me informed of the entire process. Offered advice on how to proceed."

Kenneth P.

"Fantastic team! Kevin is an amazing attorney who comes through on his word. Kylee and the team of paralegals went above and beyond to help me understand what we should expect in the case. I highly recommend Kevin’s team to anyone who is not only in need of a legal team, but one who will get them what they deserve!"

Angelica S.

"Kevin and his team worked tirelessly to help us secure the best possible outcome for an incredibly difficult situation. They were supportive and attentive to our needs, walked us through the process step by step and fought hard for us. I would highly recommend Breit Biniazan for all of your legal needs."

Carmen A.

"Following a motor vehicle accident, I needed assistance with handling insurance issues and was referred to Breit Biniazan for their expertise. I had the pleasure of working with attorney Alexis Meier and her paralegal Molisa Gardner. They managed my case with utmost professionalism, efficiency, and thoroughness.

As a physician, I am aware that some law firms may try to enhance settlements by recommending excessive consultations, imaging studies, and other tests, as well as extensive therapy. However, Alexis and Molisa ensured that I received the necessary care without subjecting me to unnecessary tests or treatments. I found their approach to be both ethical and professional.

I wholeheartedly endorse Breit Biniazan and recommend their services to anyone in a similar situation."

Andrew D.

"Alexis Meier is an exceptional attorney—professional, knowledgeable, and highly effective. She handled my case with efficiency, care, and compassion, ensuring everything was managed seamlessly. Her team was equally impressive, always responsive and prompt in their communication. It was an absolute pleasure working with them, and I highly recommend Alexis and her team to anyone in need of outstanding legal representation."
