P. Todd Sartwell has a varied practice that encompasses several areas of the law. His experience has included personal injury and wrongful death litigation, workers’ compensation claims, traffic violations, employment law, immigration, and family law.

He has been admitted to practice in Virginia since 2005, and he is also admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia and Southern District of Texas.

Mr. Sartwell’s personal injury client base is comprised of people who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents or in other incidents that have been caused by another party’s negligence, and he has successfully obtained compensation for their losses through jury awards as well as settlements that he has negotiated. In his family law practice, he guides people who are going through a divorce and helps them come to a resolution on property division, parenting time, and child and spousal support.
