I'm Scott Barney, a Virginia Beach personal injury attorney with 20+ years of experience proving owner negligence and recovering full compensation for Hampton Roads clients, on a no-win, no-fee basis.

How I Help
What I do for you
Investigate the property
I document the dangerous condition, maintenance history, and any prior complaints or incidents.
Establish the duty
I show what a reasonable owner should have done, and how they fell short.
Prove causation
I connect the unsafe condition directly to your injuries with medical and scene evidence.
Negotiate or litigate
I pursue full compensation and try the case before a jury when the owner won't be fair.
