What You Need to Know About Negligence and Liability in Pennsylvania

Your injury case in North Huntingdon is based on the negligence of another person or entity. To secure your compensation, we must demonstrate that the responsible party meets these criteria:

• Duty. The at-fault party has a responsibility to protect or not endanger others. An example would be a vehicle driver’s responsibility to obey the rules of the road.
• Breach. The at-fault party failed to protect you from harm, e.g. the driver was distracted.
• Causation. The responsible party’s actions resulted in your accident, e.g. the driver failed to stop behind you at a red light because they were looking at their phone.
• Damages. The accident caused your injuries and other losses.

Our law firm will demonstrate these elements for you and submit evidence to the at-fault party’s insurance company or the court presiding over your case.

Documenting Your Right to Recover Financial Compensation

An accidental injury can lead to massive medical bills. These are recoverable in your personal injury action. They include more than emergency medical care. We help you recover all related medical expenses including:

• Hospital admission
• Assistive medical devices
• Prescription medications
• In-home medical support
• Treatment-related travel costs

In addition to medical care, we make sure you recover the income you lost due to your injuries and time spent in recovery. These costs are referred to as your economic damages.

We also help you recover the following non-economic damages:

• Lasting physical impairment
• Disfiguring injuries
• Pain and suffering
• Mental anguish
• Emotional trauma

Wrongful Death Compensation

If a loved one was fatally injured by someone else’s negligence, our team at Berger and Green can help you recover wrongful death damages. In most cases, these are available to the immediate relatives of the person who passed. Some examples of wrongful death damages may include:

• Your loved one’s medical expenses
• Funeral and burial costs
• Your loved one’s lost income and benefits
• Your loved one’s society, support, and guidance

How Our Personal Injury Attorney Serving North Huntingdon Collects Evidence

Evidence collection can be complicated in personal injury cases. Our legal team will ensure yours has all the evidence needed to prove your right to compensation. We will collect:

• Medical records
• Appropriate police, accident, or incident reports
• Accident scene and injury photos
• Statements from anyone who witnessed the accident
• Testimony from experts who can support your claim

We also collect evidence that proves the monetary expenses and losses you are entitled to recover. This evidence will include documentation to prove the value of your lost wages. It may also include evidence of your prognosis to ensure you are compensated for treatment after your case is resolved.

Your Right to Recover Damages Has a State-Imposed Time Limit

All civil cases in the state of Pennsylvania are subjected to a statute of limitations. In general, the state allows you up to two years to file your lawsuit, per Pa. C.S.A. § 5524. It can be easier than you think to inadvertently miss the filing deadline.

In addition to meeting the state’s filing deadline, getting help from our firm early on can mean we have time to:

• Locate and interview witnesses while their memories are fresh
• Conduct a thorough investigation into the cause of your accident
• Canvass the accident scene and surrounding areas for photos and videos

The sooner you contact our team at Berger and Green, the easier it will be to make sure your case adheres to legal requirements.
