The Firm Other Personal Injury Lawyers Turn to for Complex Litigation Cases

At Breit Cantor, we are privileged to have been associated with personal injury lawyers and law firms across Virginia and the United States in significant plaintiff’s cases. The vast majority of our cases are referrals from other trial lawyers or joint ventures with other trial lawyers in which we have been brought in to assist with the litigation/trial of a case.

Unlike other high-volume Virginia law firms, we limit our practice to serious, catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases. This allows us to provide each and every client with the personalized attention and care they deserve from an experienced lawyer, not a paralegal.

Our Virginia personal injury attorneys employ a “no stone left unturned” approach—we are committed to thoroughly investigating the facts of your case and preparing your case for trial. As a result of our focused approach, we are uniquely positioned to serve as a valuable joint venture partner for other lawyers and law firms.
