In a continuing effort to provide Virginia residents with useful information after an accident but before an attorney is hired I’ve launched “Before You Talk to the Adjuster.”

Of course we cover the Internet. Extensively. From websites to Facebook to video to everything…. But not in the way that most who sell you websites teach it.
