Collier & Collier, P.C. is marking more than 80 years of combined attorney experience as it highlights its plaintiff-side personal injury work in the Greater Richmond area. The announcement puts a spotlight on a family legal practice that traces its injury-law roots back more than five decades.
The Richmond-based firm represents injured people and families in civil claims arising from accidents, wrongful deaths, unsafe property conditions and other injury matters. Its service area includes Richmond, Henrico County, Chesterfield County, Short Pump, Hanover County and nearby communities in central Virginia.
According to the firm, Boyd Collier, Sr. began representing people injured by another party’s negligence in 1973. His son, Boyd Collier, Jr., entered the same field in 1994, later opening his own office in 2001; Boyd Collier, Sr. joined him soon after, forming the Law Office of Collier & Collier.
That history is now part of the firm’s pitch to injured Virginians looking for representation against insurers and other defendants. The firm says its attorneys have helped clients pursue compensation tied to personal and family losses, including medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and other damages connected to preventable injuries.
Collier & Collier’s practice centers on motor vehicle cases, including crashes involving passenger cars, commercial trucks and motorcycles. It also represents families in fatal injury cases and handles premises liability matters, dog bite claims, boating accidents and slip-and-fall cases.
The firm is emphasizing its role as a Richmond personal injury law firm serving plaintiffs across the region. Personal injury practices on the plaintiff side generally bring claims on behalf of injured people rather than defending companies, insurers or other parties accused of responsibility.
Wrongful death and serious injury cases can involve disputes over liability, insurance coverage and the value of long-term losses. The firm’s announcement frames its decades-long presence in Richmond’s legal community as part of its appeal to individuals and families dealing with those claims.
Collier & Collier continues to operate from Richmond with a focus on injury-related civil cases across the surrounding counties. The firm’s highlighted practice areas include accident claims, wrongful death litigation, premises liability and other matters tied to alleged negligence.
