  • If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional actions, you may have a valid personal injury claim. To establish a strong case, we must prove:

    • The other party owed you a duty of care (e.g., drivers must follow traffic laws, property owners must maintain safe premises).
    • The other party breached that duty (e.g., a distracted driver caused an accident, a store failed to clean up a spill).
    • The breach directly caused your injuries and resulted in damages, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

    If you're unsure whether you have a case, our legal team offers free consultations to review your situation and determine your best legal options.

  • In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the injury. This means you must file a lawsuit within two years, or you may lose your right to seek compensation.

    However, there are exceptions that could extend or shorten this deadline:

    • Claims against government entities (e.g., injuries on public property) may require notice within six months of the incident.
    • Injuries involving minors may allow additional time until the victim turns 18.

    Because deadlines vary depending on your case, it’s important to speak with an experienced personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure your claim is filed on time.

  • If you were injured due to negligence, you may be entitled to recover various types of compensation, including:

    Medical Expenses – Covers hospital bills, doctor visits, surgeries, rehabilitation, physical therapy, and future medical care.
    Lost Wages & Loss of Earning Capacity – If your injury prevents you from working, you can recover compensation for missed paychecks and future lost income.
    Pain and Suffering – Includes compensation for physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
    Property Damage – Covers repairs or replacement costs if your vehicle, motorcycle, or other personal property was damaged in the accident.
    Wrongful Death Damages – If a loved one was fatally injured, surviving family members may be entitled to funeral expenses, lost income, and loss of companionship.

    Our Abington personal injury lawyers will evaluate your case and fight for the maximum compensation you deserve.

  • It is not recommended to speak to the insurance company without first consulting a lawyer. Insurance adjusters may try to:

    • Minimize your injuries and offer a low settlement.
    • Shift blame onto you to reduce the payout.
    • Pressure you into accepting a quick settlement, which may not fully cover your long-term medical costs and financial losses.

    Instead, let our experienced attorneys handle all communications with the insurance company. We will negotiate aggressively to ensure you receive full and fair compensation for your injuries.

  • Yes, you may still recover compensation under Pennsylvania’s modified comparative negligence rule. However, your settlement or verdict may be reduced based on your percentage of fault.

    For example:

    • If you are found 20% at fault, your compensation will be reduced by 20%.
    • If you are found more than 50% at fault, you will be barred from recovering compensation.

    Insurance companies often try to shift blame onto victims to reduce their payouts. Our attorneys will fight against unfair fault assignments and work to maximize your compensation.
