Tenacious Representation for Motor Vehicle and Trucking Collisions

Heavy traffic along Interstate 64, the Bridge-Tunnel, and Jefferson Avenue frequently leads to devastating crashes. Kalfus and Nachman PC brings vast investigative resources and trial preparation to every collision claim. The legal team acts quickly to preserve commercial truck black-box data, secure surveillance footage, and interview eyewitnesses. Whether dealing with a distracted driving car accident, commercial truck wreck, motorcycle crash, or pedestrian injury, the firm handles all insurer discussions so you can focus on healing.

Leveling the Playing Field Against Nationwide Insurance Carriers

Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts and pressure vulnerable accident victims into inadequate early settlements. Kalfus and Nachman PC counters these tactics by collaborating with respected accident reconstruction specialists, vocational experts, and medical authorities to document the full lifetime cost of your injuries. When victims hire an attorney from the Newport News office, they benefit from seasoned trial lawyers who are never afraid to take a case before a jury if the insurance carrier refuses to offer a fair settlement covering pain, medical bills, and lost earning capacity.

Comprehensive Personal Injury and Workers Compensation Practice

The firm provides dedicated legal counsel across a broad spectrum of injury and disability matters, including:

• Car and motorcycle accidents: Securing maximum compensation for traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, and bone fractures caused by negligent drivers.
• Commercial truck accidents: Holding negligent motor carriers and freight companies liable for federal safety violations and driver fatigue.
