National Distracted Driving Awareness month. Our law firm is participating in this effort because we know first hand just how dangerous distracted driving is.

By following these steps, you can protect your legal rights and ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve for your injuries.

The most common car accident injuries can vary depending on the severity and circumstances of the crash, but some of the most common types of injuries include:

Personal injury litigation refers to a legal process where an individual seeks compensation for harm suffered as a result of another person’s negligence or intentional actions. This can include physical injury, property damage, and emotional distress.

There are many myths in personal injury litigation designed to scare people away from filing lawsuits after being negligently injured. There are 5 common myths in medical malpractice litigation and we want to bring you the truths behind these myths.

The answer to this question depends on the nature of the call and what type of legal advice is being asked.  A lawyer can only provide advice for jurisdictions in which the lawyer is licensed.

Being lawyers, we know and understand the stereotypes against us from the general population. Some of you may have actually met the select few lawyers who fit those stereotypes of being dishonest, scheming, and money hungry. For that, we apologize for the bad taste they have left in your mouth.

Hearing loss is now the most common workplace injury in the United States—and those who work in the construction or manufacturing industries are often the most at-risk of suffering auditory damage.

Many people may be under the mistaken impression that simply because poor weather conditions contributed to an accident, victims may not be able to recover for their injuries. In fact, an insurance company may try and claim that the accident in which you were involved was unavoidable and did not reflect negligence on the part of the other driver.

Good lawyers? No. Bad lawyers, maybe. Often, if a lawyer does this, it is because they don’t actually know what they are allowed to ask and what they are not allowed to ask. 

How many times did you check your Facebook today? Did you Snapchat your morning coffee? Instagram the long line of traffic during the morning commute? Tweet about last night’s game? Social media has become a constant in the lives of many.

Each week we compile a list of important facts that most people don’t know, and as a result, could harm them or their claim. As the week goes on we share more information on each fact.

We explained yesterday what a phantom driver accident is, and what kind of coverage you should have on your insurance policy to protect yourself just in case you are ever the victim of a phantom driver. In this post we are going to go a little more in depth on what you should do when a phantom driver accident occurs.

Did you know in Pennsylvania another vehicle does not have to physically touch your vehicle to be treated the same as a hit and run?

Too often people come to us thinking they have “full coverage” on their insurance policies only to find out too late that they have the basic coverage required by law, or not enough coverage to pay for the hospital bills and damages.

It’s common for us to ask if you have full tort on your insurance policy and many times people will respond with, “I have full coverage.” Full coverage and full tort are not one in the same.

People choose limited tort on their policy because it saves them a little money right now, but if you get in a bad accident it won’t save you anything; in fact you could cost you thousands.

Insurance companies follow strict legal definitions of what serious injury really is, and even though there is a serious injury exception for limited tort, you still may not get compensation for your pain and suffering.
