You will likely have many questions along the way as you move through the claims process. When you choose Berger and Green to take on your case, you can rest easier knowing that you won’t be left in the dark.
When you have questions, we will have answers. When there are case status updates, you can rely on us to communicate them. When you choose our firm to advocate for you and your family, you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with honesty, transparency, and active communication.
We will need to discuss the ways your life has been affected by the car accident and the injuries you sustained. Having this conversation will allow us to form an accurate estimate of your losses, so we can pursue the insurance company for an appropriate financial award.
We will also use your medical and financial documentation to build a compelling case. Your receipts, bills, repair estimates, and prognoses will help us demonstrate the severity of your losses to the insurance company, judge, or jury.
It’s not helpful to anyone to waste time and money on legal proceedings that have no chance of success. That’s why we will be open with you about your chances and pursue only the options that are best for your case. Our attorneys can give you more information about your eligibility to pursue a lawsuit; however, here are two criteria your case must meet to qualify:
In Pennsylvania, you must meet what is called a “tort threshold” to file a lawsuit. This is a complicated area of law that your attorney can explain in more detail. Generally, it is good to know that your life must have been so severely impacted by the accident (such as by a serious injury) that your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) isn’t sufficient to cover your losses.
If you’re concerned you won’t meet the tort threshold–don’t worry. It’s our job to assess your options and initiate the type of legal action that will best meet your needs.
If someone else made a mistake or error that resulted in your collision, they should be compelled to cover these costs. To show that the responsible party’s negligence caused your accident and injuries, we will need to show that the defendant owed you a duty of care and breached this duty.
Our attorneys will conduct an investigation into your accident to uncover the cause. We will use the evidence we gather to demonstrate their financial obligation to you and then fight for what you deserve.
Damages refer to the things you’ve lost, expenses you’ve incurred, and the suffering you’ve experienced as a result of the collision. There are a wide array of these losses that can be recovered through your accident case.
Between filing a claim with the insurance company or bringing the liable party to trial, you should be able to recover necessary medical expenses related to your car accident injuries. Any future medical care, accommodations to your home, and even medical equipment can be included in your demands.
If you spent money out-of-pocket, these expenses can also be recovered. This might include the money you spent on transportation to and from physician’s appointments or even your co-pays.
Pain and suffering describe both physical injuries and emotional trauma. Examples of pain and suffering damages that could be recovered include:
Lost quality of life looks different for everyone. We want to understand your unique suffering, so we can pursue the at-fault party for compensation that will help to mitigate your personal loss.
The legal process can be overwhelming, and what works for one person’s case may not work for yours. Therefore, it is important to speak with a legal advocate who has experience navigating similar cases. Our team can give you more information about our previous successes, our process, and our dedication to injured people in Pennsylvania.
