With 20 years of experience as an insurance defense attorney, Virginia King, Esquire is very familiar with the “other side.” In 2022, she opened King Law, LLC, to represent the truly injured individuals whom she wants to help. Virginia King is the founder and owner of ViKing Law, and personally reviews each case before agreeing to represent anyone. Her time is precious, so she only selects those individuals to represent whom she truly believes in.   Virginia’s goal is to navigate the legal world and court system for the client so they do not have to. She earns the term “counselor” by providing guidance and reassurance to each client, calling, emailing and texting them back, and taking the time to explain each step of the process. This process takes time, so she does not waste time collecting everyone else’s cases using billboards, buses and television ads. She does not believe in simply collecting cases only to cast them aside later. Each client is unique and treated as such. And she’s delivered for her clients, recovering millions of dollars for clients who have suffered the most significant of injuries. Her passion for winning has led her to be named a Pennsylvania Super Lawyers “Rising Star” in 2013, 2014, and 2016 through 2019. She’s also named to Super Lawyers from 2020 to 2023, a distinction given to only the top 2.5 percent of attorneys practicing in Pennsylvania. In 2023, she was awarded the prestigious Women Entrepreneurs Award by Best Vendor. Her firm is a My Base Guide “Military Trusted Member” and is a BBB Accredited Business.
