The Commission also maintains a network of six regional offices throughout the state; hearings may be held at these offices depending upon your geographical location. These regional offices are in Bristol (425 State St., Suite 200, Bristol, VA 24201); Fairfax (Prosperity Plaza, 3020 Hamaker Court, Suite 200, Fairfax, VA 22031); Harrisonburg (136 W. Elizabeth St., Suite 101, Harrisonburg, VA 22802); Manassas (Sudley Tower, 7900 Sudley Rd., Suite 500, Manassas, VA 20109); Roanoke (3800 Electric Rd., Suite 200, Roanoke, VA 24018); and Virginia Beach (281 Independence Blvd., Suite 310, Virginia Beach, VA 23462).
In addition to these locations, the regional offices sometimes borrow space for hearings from other municipalities, thereby expanding the locations where hearings can be held. Should your case be scheduled for a hearing, the hearing notice from the Virginia Workers Compensation Commission will specify the location of your hearing. If a hearing is scheduled, you may want to discuss your specific case with us (the initial consultation is free).
