Do I have to pay my lawyer a down payment to handle my personal injury case in Virginia?

No you do not. Most lawyers handle personal injury cases on a contingent fee basis. What that means is the lawyer does not get paid until the case settles at the end of the case. The lawyer will usually advance or pay all expenses involved in handling your case. What that means is that you don't have to take any money out of your own pocket. All money will be paid at the end of the case.
