  • The statute of limitations in Pennsylvania typically requires you to file a personal injury lawsuit within two years of the date that you were hurt in an accident, although in limited circumstances, you may have more time to file suit. In addition to the statute of limitations, if you have a claim against the state government or a local government, the law requires you to give notice of your claim to the government within six months of your injury. Filing an untimely claim or lawsuit may result in your case being barred, so talk to a South Philadelphia personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure your claims are filed on time.

  • Although we cannot predict how long a personal injury case will take, various factors will influence the timeline of an injury claim, such as the severity of your injuries, the duration of your medical treatment and rehabilitation, the complexity of the evidence in your case, how quickly the insurance company investigates and responds to your claim, and whether you need to take your case to court and trial. Our firm will keep you regularly updated on the progress of your personal injury case.

    "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
    "He gives you the impression there’s a person you can count on, a person that you can rely on in terms of having some representation. He kept me informed, he kept me up to date with everything that was going on throughout the process. What doctor, what appointments, who I have to see…I was always very well informed." -Sam
