After Life-Altering Circumstances, Our Richmond Lawyers Advocate for Your Future
At Breit Cantor, we understand the life-shattering repercussions of a catastrophic injury or wrongful death. That’s why the personal injury attorneys in Richmond are relentlessly dedicated to rebuilding the lives of seriously injured clients and the loved ones of those who have been wrongfully hurt. Our law firm helps clients secure a brighter future through legal expertise, continuous support, and personalized attention.
Breit Cantor is unique from other Richmond law firms in that we intentionally limit our case volume to ensure every client receives the full attention of our team. This also ensures a high degree of collaboration and teamwork among our Richmond attorneys so we can identify the best strategy for our clients.
The lawyers at our office bring more than 40 years of experience in the court systems of Richmond and Virginia Beach and a team of leading investigators to every case. Together, we work morning, noon, and night to secure our clients the settlements and futures they deserve. It’s our empathy, tenacity, and personal dedication to each case that has helped us secure the most million-dollar settlements for our clients as reported by Virginia Lawyers Weekly.
While we’re proud of this track record, we recognize that your case is about more than money; it’s about offering you informed and compassionate support so that you can write a new, brighter future for yourself. While we can’t change the past, our Richmond lawyers can work to ensure the people or organizations responsible are held accountable.
Moving forward after a catastrophic injury or wrongful death isn’t easy, but we can help.

When your life falls apart, you want an exceptional team to help you put it back together. With Breit Cantor, that’s exactly what you’ll get. Our attorneys bring a combined 300 years of experience in a comprehensive range of personal injury and wrongful death cases to the table. Our Richmond attorneys are well-versed in Virginia personal injury law and are capable of handling a variety of injury claims.
We focus on personal injury and wrongful death types of cases so that we can provide every client with the razor-sharp expertise and fixed attention they need and deserve. We also maintain a low case volume so that we can dedicate our broad range of skills, perspectives and experiences to your personal injury claim.
An even more important characteristic every one of our Richmond lawyers brings to the table? Compassion. We care about your well-being throughout your case and long after your settlement or trial. You may find us as a result of someone’s carelessness, and while we can’t undo what’s been done, we can do everything possible to counteract that experience with our unwavering, sincere attention.
At our Richmond law office, we advocate for clients with personal injury claims involving:
Catastrophic Injuries
A catastrophic injury doesn’t just impact your body; it steals your independence, compromises your future, and redefines who you are. Such an injury can result in long-term or permanent damage, making it impossible to return to your way of life—or the life you dreamed of. You deserve to be compensated for that wrongdoing, both as a form of justice and to make moving forward financially feasible. Our Richmond personal injury attorneys make that possible by building a strong case to get you the compensation you deserve.
Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury is devastating for the victim and the family and friends who lose much of the person they love. The brain is our most complex organ, and even mild injuries to it can result in varying degrees of physical, emotional, and cognitive disabilities that can prevent your return to work or leave you dependent on caregivers for a lifetime. It is an injury that can cost millions of dollars in medical care and support, which is why our brain injury attorneys advocate for compensation to offset the emotional and financial costs of your injury.
Premises Liability
According to Virginia law, property owners are accountable for visitors to their property. It is their responsibility to maintain a safe environment, and if for any reason that is not possible, those risks should be communicated to visitors. If not and you are seriously injured while on their property, you are entitled to compensation. Our premises liability attorneys in Richmond will fight for justice and for your future if you were injured as a result of a property owner’s negligence.
Truck Accidents
The commercial trucking industry is regulated by federal and state laws to hold the drivers and companies to standards designed to keep roads safe. When those standards are broken, accidents happen, and those injured deserve justice. Because trucking regulations bridge federal and state laws, cases around tractor-trailer accidents require the expertise of a team of experienced personal injury lawyers like those at our Richmond office. If you and your family have suffered an injury in a tractor-trailer accident, we can help take the steps to move forward.
Wrongful Death
It’s never easy to face the death of a loved one, but it’s even more heartbreaking when their passing was avoidable as is the case with wrongful death. Spouses and next of kin face emotional torment and a life without the person they loved. We know there is truly no replacement for human life in the aftermath of wrongful death, but at Breit Cantor, we work to shoulder the pain of our clients and hold those responsible to account, seeking the largest possible settlement to help you move forward.
Product Liability
We all trust the products we use—from airbags to cribs to medications—to function reliably and safely, as we should. But when products malfunction or are inherently dangerous and you are injured as a result, you deserve to be compensated for enduring the ensuing hardships. Filing a product liability claim against a corporate manufacturer or distributor is intimidating and expensive, but choosing our Richmond injury lawyers to carry your case forward is risk-free because we don’t receive payment until you do.
Sexual Abuse
At Breit Cantor, we recognize the gravity and psychological, emotional, and physical consequences of any unwanted sexual behavior. For victims of sexual abuse, a return to normalcy may seem impossible, but we strive to make moving forward—even toward a new normal—possible by offering support that extends beyond your case. Our personal injury lawyers treat every client with the dignity, care, and confidential attention you deserve as we advocate for your honor and future.
Car Accidents
Car accidents occur in the flash of a moment, but their effects can last for months or even years. Injuries resulting from a car crash can severely impact your life, and if they do, you should be repaid for the financial and emotional burdens those injuries incur. Our Richmond injury law firm, backed by a team of experienced attorneys and investigators, carefully consider the details of your accident to establish a case that provides you with the greatest level of compensation you are due. Our Virginia personal injury firm can help you build a comprehensive lawsuit demanding the compensation you deserve.
Medical Malpractice
Healthcare practitioners are among the most respected members of our society, but that does not exempt them from wrongdoing. We trust doctors with our lives, but if you or a loved one were harmed as a result of the negligence or malpractice of a member of the medical system, you deserve justice. Our injury lawyers in Richmond work to right the wrongs done by healthcare practitioners, seeking financial and emotional restitution to help you move past the painful challenges of medical malpractice.
Other Ways Our Richmond Law Firm Can Help
Injury does not discriminate, and it is not predictable. Our Richmond attorneys are dedicated to making sure your voice is heard and helping you move forward after your accident, whether you were injured in a bus or motorcycle accident, hit by a car as a pedestrian, or suffered life-altering injuries in a slip and fall or bicycle accident.
Our Richmond lawyers have received AV Preeminent® Ratings from Martindale-Hubbell® and have been selected for inclusion in Best Lawyers in America® and Virginia Super Lawyers® multiple years in a row. Even if we aren’t the right law firm for you, we’ll help you connect you with the one who is.
You Only Pay Once We Win Your Case
The toll of an injury goes far beyond the physical, and the stress of mounting debt—from medical bills, caretakers, and lost income from time taken off work or even losing your job—can have an intense psychological impact, making an already stressful situation even more upsetting. When you choose Breit Cantor, it’s stress-free because you don’t pay anything until we win your settlement. We know this is already a hard time for you, which is why we make working with our Richmond personal injury attorneys an easy decision.
