Trusted Legal Help from Burnett & Williams, One of Virginia’s Oldest Injury Law Firms
Featuring Attorneys Charles James Williams III & Kimberly Raab
As one of the most heavily trafficked corridors on the East Coast, I-95 in Richmond is no stranger to tractor-trailer accidents. Between tight merges, high speeds, and frequent construction zones, drivers face serious risks — and when a truck crash happens, the consequences are often life-altering.
At Burnett & Williams, P.C., we’ve spent over 30 years helping Virginians navigate devastating injuries and wrongful deaths caused by negligent truck drivers and commercial carriers. Our Richmond and Chesterfield legal teams — led by Attorneys Charles James Williams III and Kimberly Raab— are known for delivering aggressive legal strategy and unmatched personal care.
Why I-95 in Richmond Is a Truck Accident Hotspot
Stretching through the heart of the city, I-95 sees:
- Merging traffic from I-64 and the Downtown Expressway
- Heavy tractor-trailer volume from regional shipping routes
- Tight exits, narrow lanes, and frequent bottlenecks
- Dangerous conditions during rush hour and inclement weather
These hazards make Richmond’s section of I-95 a common site for serious 18-wheeler accidents.
Life-Changing Injuries Are Common
Due to the massive size of commercial trucks, crash victims often suffer:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord damage or paralysis
- Complex fractures and internal injuries
- Severe burns or amputations
- Wrongful death
“Truck crashes don’t just cause injury — they disrupt entire families,” adds Attorney Kimberly Raab. “That’s why our approach is both aggressive in the courtroom and compassionate with clients.
Don’t Let Virginia’s Contributory Negligence Law Undermine Your Claim
Virginia follows strict contributory negligence, meaning if you’re even 1% at fault, you could be denied compensation. That’s why you should never speak to the trucking company’s insurer without legal representation.
“One wrong word can cost you your entire case,” warns Raab. “Let our attorneys protect you from day one.”
