Virginia gets allowed a servant (5)
I believe the answer is:
valet
'a servant' is the definition.
(valet is a kind of servant)
'virginia gets allowed' is the wordplay.
'virginia' becomes 'va' (US state abbreviation).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'allowed' becomes 'let' (to let is to allow or permit).
'va'+'let'='VALET'
(Other definitions for valet that I've seen before include "Clean (a car); attendant" , "Jeeves?" , "Gentleman's assistant" , "Man's manservant" , "Personal manservant" .)
