Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Virginia

Re: truck accident

There is no such thing as a no-fault accident in Va., at least as the term no-fault is commonly understood. He needs to retain Virginia counsel and find out how he was sued without finding out about it and hopefully try either to get the judgment vacated or get someone (insurance co., employer) to pay it. Virginia will suspend his license for failure to pay any judgment arising out of a motor vehicle accident, and other states may honor this.
