I would like to say that injured workers law firm has been so amazing and the experience was definitely worth the wait. From day 1 I've always felt so much support and as well as great advice in crucial moments of this process. After settling my case I feel like we've been able to secure the perfect amount. I'd like to say thanks for everything. Great experience!!!
Excellent... very knowledgeable and diligent attorney. The staff was awesome. Mes. D’angelo worked very hard and got me the justification and more that I was seeking. I highly recommend Mrs. D’Angelo and her team.
Lorraine was born in Kentucky and grew up in East Tennessee, but spent summers with her father in Newport News, Virginia. She attended law school at the University of Memphis, graduating in 1999. After law school, she moved to Newport News, Virginia to work for an Administrative Law Judge who heard Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act claims. Later, her husband’s job brought her to Richmond, Virginia.
She has represented both claimants and employers, having worked at Rutter Mills in Norfolk, Virginia, and Midkiff, Muncie, and Ross in Richmond. Lorraine prefers representing the injured worker because the injured worker is less knowledgeable about the workers compensation system and needs more help than the insurance companies who have lawyers on call for any questions.
When not working, Lorraine enjoys reading mystery novels, exploring Richmond’s many restaurants, and spending time with her husband and pets.

Job well done Thank you
I would like to thank the Injured Workers’ Law Firm for the work they did for me. Even though my worker’s comp case was settled in 2012 I was presented with a letter that offered me a settlement for the remaining years. Because I was also receiving additional benefits it was not just a yes or no decision. In contacting the firm and being accepted as a client by Michele Lewane I was assigned to Legal Assistant Emily Busch and Attorney Lorraine D’Angelo. They reviewed all my information and directed me to other contacts to help me make my finally decision. They did not make the choice for me but help me understand what the long-term effect would be on my finance going forward. Because I have worked with other lawyers I knew the most important thing was to make sure they heard me, and I understood how they were making decisions and they met these requirements 100%. I would refer this firm to my family and friends.

Calming influence
I'm so glad that I retained Ms. D'Angelo, I only wish I had called her earlier. She, and her staff, was professional, knowledgeable and showed a great deal of empathy for what I was going through. She explained the process and walked me, step by step, through the negotiations so there were no surprises. I couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend Lori and her team.

Brilliant and compassionate attorney
Lorraine worked on my workman's comp case. As soon as I hired Lorraine and the law firm they began working on my case. They always communicated with me throughout the whole process and I definitely feel she got the best settlement for my case. I would not hesitate to refer Lorraine. She took a lot of the stress away from me throughout the whole process. Amazing attorney with superb results!

She was amazing. Her staff was amazing. She got me a settlement that was fair, took away the stressfulness of having to deal this the case, and she listened to me. Most importantly she AND her staffed cared about me. It was not all about the money for her and that showed. She was passionate about the case and my well being. I would recommend anyone dealing with similar cases to give her a call.

Worker's Compensation
Lori D'Angelo and her staff worked well as a team on my case. They were genuinely caring, and professional. They kept me updated with the progressions and setbacks of my case. Lori is very knowledgeable in this field and I always felt she had my best interest at heart and fought hard on my behalf. There were some changes with the settlement expectation, however; this in no way would keep me from hiring Lori again. I highly recommend her and I truly see her as an awesome lawyer.

Amazing guide through rough waters
Ms. D'Angelo was a blessing during one of the roughest times in my life. She guided me through the process with ease due to her incredible knowledge of workers compensation law. She had me smiling and laughing with her wonderful sense of humor, even when I felt frustrated, overwhelmed, and like crying. Her hard work, as well as the work of others at the firm, has allowed me to take time to concentrate on my health and well-being. I spoke with several law firms before hiring Lori and the Injured Workers' Law Firm. With the other firms, I felt like I was bothering them and becoming a hassle with my questions and issues. I realize now those other firms treated me like the workers compensation office at my employer - unworthy of their time and energy. Throughout the legal process, Lori stood by me and guided me. I am forever indebted to her and Injured Workers' Law Firm and highly recommend her to anyone and everyone trying to navigate the rough waters of a workers compensation case.

Best attorney out there
Lorraine has definitely helped me with my case and took the stress away from having to deal with the insurance companies. I am a medical billing specialist who deals with insurance companies on a daily business. When I couldn't get anywhere with the insurance company, i knew I had to call in an expert. Lorraine has gone above and beyond what other attorneys would to diligently work my case and keep me updated every step of the way. With one phone call you won't need to look anywhere else!

Lorraine D'Angelo and her staff were heaven sent when I was hurt on the job. They were easy to talk to and explained every option in a way my wife and I could understand. They walked us through every question or obtacle we had in a professional and kind manner. We made the right choice when deciding to let this firm handle our case. Without a doubt we would recommend them anyone we knew that needed an attorney. We definitely couldn't have done it without having them on our side.

One of the nicest, kindest lawyers you could imagine...
One of the nicest, kindest lawyers you could imagine, Lorraine D'Angelo is easy to communicate with and very patient in explaining all the options available to you as her client. Her firm and its staff are supportive, swift to answer your calls and emails, and some of the most competent in the business. They provide tons of information about the work comp process, including do's and don't for clients. And they even sent me a box of scrumptious cookies with a get-well-soon card inside. All in all, a lawyer and firm with tons of heart, skill, and knowledge.

"Lori is the epitome of excellence. For more than 10 years I have worked with her or been engaged with her workers' compensation cases. She has always been professional, prompt, and competent in all of her work. She is an experienced attorney that will get the job done and will go above and beyond her peer's expectation. Highly respected and regarded."

"Ms. D'Angelo is the first person I call anytime a case comes in to my office involving a workplace injury. There is no one in the Commonwealth of Virginia with more knowledge or expertise on that subject, and her advice and counsel has been invaluable to me over the years."
"Lori is an excellent attorney and a pleasure to do business with. She is highly intelligent, analytical, principled, and commonsensical. I unequivocally endorse her."

"Lorraine is a top-notch attorney, and now that she has joined exemplary lawyer and law firm owner Michelle Lewane, this is an unbeatable workers compensation team. From personal experience I can say that this law firm is far ahead of the curve and will go the extra mile, every time! i highly recommended these lawyers!!"

"Lori is an excellent attorney to have on your side. Not only is she compassionate and caring, she knows what it takes to be successful. She worked on the other side (!) for many years and understands the tricks and insights used by the defense to deny you the benefits you truly deserve! Now that is someone to have on your side!"
