burnett & williams
history
Burnett & Williams
was founded as the result of personal injury law becoming
increasingly complex and in a time when general practitioners
were finding it increasingly difficult to provide quality
representation to personal injury clients. The changing
intricacies of insurance and medical issues made it very
difficult to remain current and effective against insurance
companies with full-time defense attorneys and staff
whose sole purpose is to minimize compensation and maximize
corporate profits. To overcome these challenges, Peter
Burnett limited his general law practice of 10 years
to personal injury cases and started Burnett & Williams
in 1988 with Barbara S. Williams, who is no longer with
the firm.
In nearly two decades of personal
injury specialization, Burnett & Williams has achieved
notable verdicts, settlements, and appellate results
in cases arising from wrongful deaths, medical malpractice,
tractor trailer accidents, traumatic brain injuries,
defective products, serious orthopaedic injuries,
and other significant injuries. This specialization and
the consequent investment in time and resources in each
case have been instrumental in our ability to obtain
full compensation for our clients.
Burnett & Williams
is now one of the oldest and most experienced personal injury
firm in Virginia with offices
in Leesburg, Midlothian, Hopewell, Richmond, and Winchester. The firm continues
to grow as we add new locations, talented and experienced
attorneys, and dedicated staff. |
