    Tape Recorded Conversations
    Is it legal to tape record someone's conversation in Virginia. I have a tape of an
    Individual whom is attempting to cover up fault in an accident and blame the victom
    In hopes that it will not come back on him personally

    States that prohibit taping conversations without the permission of all parties are Pennsylvania, California, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New Hampshire, Oregon and Washington.
    I didn't see anything about Virginia law but even if the Judge does listen to it they can say they are not going to give it much weight.

    Well VA is a one party consent state, which means as long as one party is aware of the taping its legal.
