Richmond Lawyer FAQ

Helping you make the right decision
How Much Does It Cost To Get a Divorce?

That depends on why you are getting divorced. If your divorce is granted because you and your spouse have been separated for the requisite period of time, commonly called a “No-Fault Divorce” then it will cost a flat fee of $800.00. If you are seeking a “Fault Divorce” you will need to speak to an attorney about your circumstances before we can give you an estimate of the cost for your divorce.

What Is Estate Planning?

Estate Planning is the process of working with an advisor to discuss your goals and concerns, review your assets and how they are owned, consider your family structure and develop a plan that provides for the management and disposition of your assets upon your death or incapacity.

Learn More About Estate Planning
I Didn’t Have to Go to the Emergency Room, and the Pain Didn’t Really Start Until the Next Day. Is It Too Late Now?

No, it is not too late. It is common for pain to set in a day or two after the accident. Get to a doctor and get treated and call Cravens & Noll.

Will I Lose My Home?

It depends on the specifics of your case, but most of the time you can keep your home. If there is no or very little equity in the house (the value of the home minus the mortgage) you most likely will be able to keep your home. If you are facing a foreclosure on your house, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy has the potential to halt the foreclosure and save your home to allow past due mortgage payments to be paid over time.

Can I Afford a Lawyer In My Personal Injury Case?

Yes. Actually there is no fee charged unless the attorney wins money for you. Injury cases are handled on a contingency basis with the attorney taking a percentage of the recovery.

I Was in a Hit And Run Accident. I Didn’t See the Plate On the Car that Hit Me and I Don’t Know Who It Was, Can I Still Sue?

Absolutely. In Virginia, hit and run accidents are far too frequent. You may still bring suit, or even settle your claim without a lawsuit against your own policy or the policy on the vehicle you were operating.
