Montagna Law - Newport News, VA

Multi-Generational Legal Advocacy for Newport News Families

For more than half a century, the Montagna name has stood as a pillar of dependable legal advocacy throughout Coastal Virginia. Conveniently located at 4302 Huntington Avenue, Suite 300 in Newport News, Montagna Law delivers client-centered representation across personal injury, maritime litigation, domestic relations, and criminal traffic defense. Founded in the 1960s by Charles Montagna, the firm has guided three generations of families through complex legal dilemmas. Partners Jon Montagna, Anthony Montagna III, Lance Jackson, and Samantha Bull share an enduring commitment to treating clients like people rather than file numbers. Clients work directly with their designated attorney rather than being handed off to case managers or paralegals, ensuring direct access, regular updates, and seasoned trial strategy from the initial consultation until the case concludes.

Dedicated Personal Injury and Maritime Accident Representation

Recovering from a catastrophic collision or workplace trauma requires an assertive personal injury lawyer who can challenge insurance defense firms. Having secured more than thirty million dollars in verdicts and settlements, Montagna Law provides aggressive representation in core injury practice areas:

• Car accident claims on Interstate 64, Jefferson Avenue, and the Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel, addressing severe whiplash, fractures, and total vehicle loss.
• Commercial truck collisions involving tractor-trailers, logistics haulers, and commercial delivery vehicles operating along maritime freight corridors.
• Maritime, dockworker, and shipyard injury claims brought under the Jones Act and the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act along the James River waterfront.
• Slip and fall injuries, trip incidents, and premises liability claims stemming from neglected retail walkways, broken stairs, and inadequate property maintenance.
• Wrongful death litigation providing compassionate legal advocacy to help grieving families recover burial expenses and lost financial dependency.

Decisive Criminal Defense, Traffic Violations, and Family Law

In addition to plaintiff injury work, Montagna Law protects client freedom and family stability in Newport News courts. Experienced advocates assist clients with difficult domestic and criminal challenges, including:

• Reckless driving defense and speeding ticket representation led by veteran attorney Anthony Montagna III, helping drivers avoid jail time and license suspensions.
• Driving under the influence (DUI/DWI) defense, challenging traffic stops, field sobriety testing, and breathalyzer calibrations.
• Contested and uncontested divorce proceedings, military divorce issues, and equitable distribution of retirement accounts and marital real estate.
• Child custody, visitation arrangements, and child support enforcement focused on protecting parental bonds and the best interests of children.
