i was wrongfuly terminated, and was told i voulentarily quit. i have disputed this and was denied unemployment because of it.

You will be able to appeal to the Virginia Unemployment Commisssion and make your case. There are two particularly important facts to know about this sort of case: One, the deadlines come up very fast on these cases and you have to be very careful.  You can lose your appeal easily by simply missing a deadline. Two, you are much more likely to be successful if you have an attorney.  People in your situation often do not want to spend any money on an attorney, but you can probably find someone who will work with you at a reasonable rate.  Losing at your appeals hearing means that you won't get unemployment and that will cost you far more than the cost of hiring an attorney. I hope that helps.   DISCLAIMER: This is not intended to be specific legal advice and should not be relied upon as such.  No attorney-client relationship is formed by this posting.
