About

Lawyers Serving Injured Persons.

History

Since 1981, when we started specializing in only handling personal injury cases as Chandler & Franklin, our promise to clients has been captured in our motto: “Lawyers Serving Injured Persons.” We were among the first attorneys to educate the public of their personal injury rights through Yellow Pages and television advertising. In 1983, we became Chandler, Franklin & O’Bryan and expanded our footprint across the State of Virginia and began representing injured workers. In recent years, we have limited our geographic presence to the Hampton Roads, Peninsula, Middle Peninsula and Tidewater areas of Virginia. We continue to specialize in representing only injured persons and injured workers. We still offer free consultations and still handle cases on a contingency fee basis. Check our client testimonials section to see what our former clients have to say about us.

After an accident or injury, there are immediate concerns that have to be handled: you need to ensure that your family is provided for, that your legal interests are protected and that you receive the compensation you deserve from the negligent party. You do what you can to return to the life you were living before the accident occurred. Franklin & Franklin is here to serve you and help make sure that it happens.

 

Get in touch

At Franklin & Franklin we know that finding the right attorney to represent you is a choice not to be taken lightly. That’s why we offer free consultations to help offer you suggestions and to review and evaluate your case.
