What to Expect When You Hire Blank & Marcus
If you've been injured, it's natural to have questions: “What happens next?” “Will my case go to trial?” “How much does it cost to hire a lawyer?” At Blank & Marcus, our process is designed to give you clear answers, consistent support, and real results. Whether your accident happened in Richmond, Chesterfield, Henrico, or elsewhere in Central Virginia, our team is here to guide you through every step.
We’ve helped thousands of injury victims across Virginia—and we’re ready to fight for you, too.
Start with a Free Consultation—
No Strings Attached
Every case begins with a free consultation. You’ll meet directly with one of our Richmond personal injury attorneys—not just an assistant or intake rep. We’ll review what happened, discuss your injuries, and give you honest feedback on your legal options.
There’s no cost to talk with us. If we take your case, you won’t pay us a dime unless we win compensation for you.
We Investigate Like the Case Is Going to Trial—Because It Might Be
Once we agree to move forward, we start building your case immediately. That includes:
- Visiting the scene of the accident
- Collecting witness statements
- Preserving surveillance footage
- Consulting with experts (medical, engineering, economic)
- Reviewing accident reports, medical records, and employer logs
Some injury law firms skip these steps. We don’t. Because if your case goes to trial—and many serious cases do—we’ll be ready.
You Stay in the Loop from Start to Finish
At Blank & Marcus, you won’t be left wondering what’s happening with your case. We keep our clients informed through regular updates and direct attorney communication. You’ll have your lawyer’s contact info—and when you call, they’ll pick up.
No endless voicemail trees. No waiting weeks for a callback. Just honest, timely communication from the people actually handling your claim.
We Negotiate with Leverage—
Because We're Prepared for Trial
We prepare every case as if it’s headed to trial. That’s not just talk—it’s how we’ve recovered millions for clients in Richmond, Powhatan, Henrico, and beyond.
When insurance companies know your lawyer is ready to take them to court, they treat your claim differently. If a fair settlement isn’t offered, we won’t hesitate to file suit and try your case in front of a jury.
That’s how we’ve secured verdicts like:
- $6.35M for a wrongful death in Hanover
- $1.18M for a car crash in Richmond
- $2.5M for chemical burn wrongful death

You Don’t Pay Unless We Win
Hiring a personal injury lawyer shouldn’t add to your financial stress. That’s why we work on a contingency fee basis.
- No upfront costs
- No hourly billing
- No attorney’s fee unless we recover compensation
It’s that simple. We invest in your case—and we only get paid if you do.
Let’s Talk About Your Next Step
Every case is different, but the goal is always the same: to fight for the full compensation you deserve. Whether your injuries happened in a car accident on I-64, a fall at a business near Short Pump, or a dog attack in Chesterfield, we’re ready to help.
