Ice And Accidents Challenge Virginia Personal Injury Lawyers

Albemarle and Charlottesville have been hit with a significant ice storm that created difficult road conditions. Virginia personal injury lawyers and attorneys can receive a lot of calls after an ice storm about car accidents and other slip and fall injuries. A frequent defense in cases where icy conditions are involved is that it is an act of God. It is true that we cannot control the weather, but we can take appropriate precautions and a lot of cases hinge on the particular facts of the accident. If a store owner fails to clear the entryway of ice before opening the store, the injured person may have a strong claim. On the other hand, if a driver slides off the road because of ice, there may not be any facts that rise to the level of negligence.
