Andre Patel

Andre Patel works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. If your case is successful, the attorney's fee is a percentage of your settlement or award — typically 15–25% in Virginia. There are no upfront costs and no fees if you don't recover.

Andre Patel handles all types of workers' compensation cases in Virginia, including Workers Compensation, Psychological Injuries, Stress Claims, denied claims, permanent disability ratings, and workers' comp appeals.

In Virginia, you generally must report your injury to your employer within 30 days and file a formal claim within 1–2 years of the injury date. These deadlines are strict — missing them can cost you your benefits. Contact Andre immediately after any workplace injury.

Yes — claim denials are one of Andre Patel's specialties. Insurance companies routinely deny valid claims hoping workers won't fight back. With 11 years of experience in Virginia workers' comp law, Andre knows exactly how to appeal denials and fight for the benefits you're entitled to.

Andre Patel primarily serves clients in Poquoson and the surrounding Virginia area, but handles cases throughout the state. If you're in Virginia and were injured at work, contact Andre's office for a free consultation regardless of your location.
