Virginia Personal Injury
Torts are civil wrongs that are grounds
for a lawsuit. The claim of the injured party is usually
on this harm. Civil suits do not involve jail time. They
are for injunctions to stop the continuation of the tortious
conduct or for money damages.
There are many different kinds of torts
including trespass, assault, battery, negligence, products
liability, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Torts fall into three categories: intentional torts, negligent
torts and strict liability torts. Intentional torts are
those wrongs which the defendant knew or should have known
would occur through their actions or inactions. Negligent
torts occur when the defendant's actions were unreasonably
unsafe. Strict liability torts are not based on actions
but the activity itself.
Torts that cause personal injury due to
the negligent behavior of a third party are actionable
under Virginia law. Charles Anderson of Grenadier, Anderson,
