Offer Of Judgment Analyzer in Virginia

Virginia’s offer-of-judgment rule, Va. R. Sup. Ct. Pt. 1, Rule 1:14, is limited in scope and does not create a general offer-of-judgment regime. The rule applies only to specific civil actions and sets out a mechanism for shifting costs, including prejudgment interest at a rate of 6% when certain conditions are met. The official source provides the exact factors, exceptions, and procedural requirements. DocketMath’s offer-of-judgment analyzer applies this rule to a user’s case details; the worked example below demonstrates the calculation.
