Trollinger Law has expanded its workers' compensation and personal injury practice into Virginia with the addition of attorney David J. Kapson, strengthening the firm's regional presence. This strategic move now provides comprehensive legal representation for injured workers across Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Virginia, addressing a critical need for consistent advocacy in a tri-state area where workplace injury cases often cross jurisdictional lines.
Kapson brings more than 15 years of specialized experience representing thousands of injured workers and securing millions of dollars in wage replacement and medical benefits. His licensing in all three jurisdictions—Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia—provides seamless legal support for clients whose cases or employment situations span state boundaries. This regional expertise is particularly valuable in the Washington metropolitan area where many residents work in one jurisdiction while living in another.
The expansion matters because it increases access to experienced legal representation for Virginia residents who have historically had fewer options for workers' compensation specialists. With workplace injuries affecting thousands of families annually in the region, having attorneys who understand the nuances of each jurisdiction's laws can significantly impact case outcomes. Kapson's role as Vice President of the Trial Lawyers Association of Metropolitan Washington, D.C., and his involvement in shaping legal decisions affecting injured workers in both D.C. and Virginia further strengthens this regional capability.
For the legal industry, this expansion reflects a trend toward regional consolidation of specialized practices, particularly in areas like workers' compensation where jurisdictional knowledge is crucial. The move positions Trollinger Law to handle more complex cases that involve multiple jurisdictions, potentially setting precedents for how cross-border workplace injury cases are managed. For injured workers, the practical impact is more consistent representation regardless of where their injury occurred or where they reside within the region.
Matt Trollinger, Founder of Trollinger Law, emphasized that the expansion maintains the firm's commitment to personal attention while pursuing strategic growth. The firm's enhanced regional presence through this addition addresses the evolving needs of working families in an interconnected metropolitan area.
