We Help You Prove Your Right to Financial Compensation

Knowing the at-fault party in your injury case is only a first step. To ensure you can recover compensation from the at-fault party, we compile evidence that proves the legal components of negligence. They include:

• Duty of care. The person who caused your accident had a duty of care to reasonably keep you safe from harm.
• Breach of duty. This person or entity breached this duty, endangering you.
• Causation. Their negligence or recklessness caused you to have an accident.
• Negligence. The accident you endured caused injuries and other losses for which you deserve compensation.

These elements are proven by the evidence we collect. We will not tax you or your family with evidence collection. Instead, our legal team handles this complex and time-consuming process for you.

Recovering Damages for Your Injuries and Related Expenses

After an accident, you can typically recover two types of damages — economic and non-economic.

Commonly requested recoverable damages include:

• Economic damages such as past and future medical bills, lost wages, and loss of future earnings. They also include the costs of repairing or replacing your damaged or destroyed property or its diminished value.
• Non-economic damages such as lasting disabilities and disfiguring injuries. They also include ongoing pain and suffering, mental and emotional anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life.
• Wrongful death damages such as the costs of your loved one’s funeral and burial. They also include your family’s loss of their financial and household contributions.

Our law firm will make sure you understand which damages you can recover. We also make sure your compensation is accurately assessed before submitting a demand letter or entering negotiations on your behalf.

Evidence Our Personal Injury Lawyer Serving Mercer, PA Compiles for You

The evidence file we build for you will contain proof of the at-fault party’s liability. It will also contain proof of the accident’s financial aftermath. Evidence we collect may include:

• The incident report
• Medical records and bills
• Accident scene photos
• Photos of your injuries
• Witness statements

We also obtain proof of employment and other financial records to document your income loss. Our goal is to recoup income caused by your injuries and the recovery process. Anything you’ve spent or lost as a result of the incident we can pursue on your behalf.

We Make Sure Your Lawsuit Is Filed on Time

In Pennsylvania, you generally have two years to file your personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, according to Pa. C.S.A. § 5524. While complying with the statute of limitations is mandatory, many factors of your case can cause it to fluctuate. If your lawsuit is not filed within the allowable time:

• You could be prohibited from filing at all
• It will be dismissed without being heard
• You could lose your leverage over the insurer to pay a fair award

These outcomes could leave you without options for financial recovery. When we handle your case, we help you avoid these costly consequences by making sure your case is filed on time.
