Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? We are here to help. Still have questions or can't find the answer you need? Give us a call at 215-610-3440 today!

  • Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations typically gives you only two years to file a personal injury lawsuit to recover compensation from those liable for your injuries and losses. If you have a personal injury claim against the state government or a local government, the law also requires you to provide notice of your claim to the appropriate department or agency within six months of the date of your injury. Because you may have limited time to pursue your personal injury claims, talk to a Berks County personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure your case gets filed on time.
  • At van der Veen, Hartshorn and Levin, we understand the financial problems that being injured in an accident can cause. You shouldn’t have to choose between paying for medical treatment and getting the legal representation you need to pursue compensation and accountability from those at fault for your injuries. Our firm works on a contingency fee basis, which means you owe us nothing upfront to hire our firm. We get paid only if we recover compensation for you in a negotiated settlement or at trial.

About Berks County

Berks County is a county located in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Part of the Greater Philadelphia metro region, Berks County was named for the county in England where Pennsylvania founder William Penn came from, Berkshire, which was often shortened to “Berks.” The Schuylkill River flows through Berks County, which is home to two Pennsylvania state parks, Nolde Forest and French Creek State Park.

According to the Pennsylvania Department of Health, over 4,400 residents of Berks County were hospitalized for accidental/unintentional injuries in one recent year, including over 300 motor vehicle occupants.

Clients share their experiences and results firsthand
    "I love that I have Mike on my side, whenever I question what am I supposed to do? I used to call my dad and after my dad passed, even for things that aren’t always law related, I know I could still call Mike, and I love that about him. He’s just amazing, and I know that if I send somebody here that they’re going to be represented a hundred percent." -Jamie
