Thomas James Schilling

Mr. Schilling has devoted his legal career primarily to representing individuals against wrongdoing by powerful corporations, insurance companies, and other business special interest groups. As an advocate with nearly twenty years of trial experience, Mr. Schilling strongly believes in fighting for justice on every case he litigates – from the multi-million dollar case to the small claims case –without regard to dollar signs.

For Mr. Schilling, seeking justice for his clients sometimes does not end at the trial courthouse, and he has multiple reported decisions from the Virginia Supreme Court and Virginia Court of Appeals where he has fought to challenge and change the law for aggrieved clients. Much of Mr. Schilling’s practice is concentrated in the areas of catastrophic auto and truck cases, defective drug-devices and other defective products, medical and nursing home malpractice, and worker’s compensation, but he welcomes your inquiry in other areas involving significant injury or harm.

Mr. Schilling is a graduate of the University of Richmond School of Law in 1983. He also holds the distinction of a Master’s degree in law from the College of William and Mary. He is a member of the American Bar Association, the Virginia Bar Association, the Association of Trial Lawyers of America, and the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association, and is qualified to practice in all Virginia state and federal courts.
