Wallace B. Wason, Jr. – Malpractice and Personal Injury Attorney
Wallace B. Wason Jr’s Complete CV

Malpractice attorney Wallace B. Wason, Jr. is a trial lawyer, first and foremost. He has proudly served clients in Virginia, Maryland, the District of Columbia for over three decades, focusing on client-focused representation of people or companies who have been injured by the negligence or wrongful conduct of someone else. He is proud to have established his own firm, Wallace Wason, PLLC with a focus on dental malpractice, medical malpractice, legal malpractice and cases of serious personal injury.
Because Wally knows that these kinds of malpractice cases lead to big trials, and big trials have big consequences, he is very selective about the legal cases he takes on. When Wally accepts a case, it is one that he believes he can win at trial. He will not take a case just hoping the other side will negotiate a settlement out of court – if he takes on a case it is because he is willing to press on to trial if necessary to achieve proper compensation for his client. In fact, he’s been included in Virginia Lawyers Weekly’s lists of top verdicts1 in Virginia malpractice and wrongful death lawsuits, some of the most difficult cases to win. Wallace B. Wason, Jr. has been named to Super Lawyers list of top lawyers again in 2023.
Alexandria Virginia Malpractice Attorney Wallace B. Wason Jr.
If you ask Wally to tell you about his proudest moments as a Virginia lawyer, however, he may not point first to these results. He may be just as likely to tell you about a particularly effective deposition, a successful motion, or the pride and enthusiasm he feels when he comes up with the strategic idea that will help to win a case. Wally believes that preparation is the key to any trial victory or settlement, and he knows what it takes to get a case ready for these proceedings. He is known for his sharp intellect and for bringing analysis and creativity to his cases. Potential clients, and even other lawyers, seek him out because this ability often leads to resolution of complicated cases.
With all of that, Wally is very down to earth, compassionate and approachable. He will explain clearly what is involved in pursuing an injury or legal malpractice claim, including substantive and financial aspects, so that clients (and potential clients) understand what they will be getting into if they decide to pursue their claim with a lawyer.
