Tue Feb 25 07:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Local Attorneys Urge Accident Victims to Seek Legal Counsel
**Virginia Beach, VA** – Many accident victims unknowingly jeopardize their rights by failing to hire a personal injury attorney, according to Huffman & Huffman law firm. A recent segment on the local television show *Living 757* highlighted the common misconception that insurance agents will adequately represent accident victims’ interests. In reality, claims are handled by adjusters who lack personal ties to the injured party.
Attorney Katey Green of Huffman & Huffman stressed that even a small degree of fault (as little as 1%) can bar accident victims from any recovery. She encourages those involved in accidents to contact a personal injury attorney immediately to preserve their rights. The firm operates on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only receive payment if a settlement is awarded.
The *Living 757* segment also addressed the guilt some individuals feel about filing claims, reminding viewers that liability insurance exists precisely for such situations. To help clarify when a personal injury case might be warranted, the show featured a game designed to improve understanding.
