The legal "voice of the victim" for over 30 years, handling every case personally, no legal aides, no insurance-company clients.
John T. Wood holds degrees from the University of Virginia and the T.C. Williams School of Law at the University of Richmond, and has built over 30 years of personal injury representation and general practice from an office at 800 S Sycamore St, in the heart of Petersburg. He does not represent insurance companies, and every case that comes through his door is handled by him directly, not passed to a legal aide the way it often is at larger firms.
His practice covers personal injury and negligence claims, workers' compensation, DUI and DWI defense, and traffic offenses across the Tri-City area, with consultations available by appointment on weekdays, weeknights, weekends, and at the hospital if that's where a case starts.
No junior associates, no handoffs, John Wood personally works each of the cases below from the first call to resolution.
Car accidents, negligence claims and workers' compensation cases across the Petersburg and Richmond Metro area, built to counter insurance companies that try to settle cheaply and fast.
