Protect your rights by working with a personal injury lawyer in Pennsylvania. If you have been in an accident and were harmed due to the negligence of someone else, you need an experienced personal injury lawyer in Pennsylvania. Working with one will increase the likelihood of your case having a successful outcome. Since Pennsylvania has comparative negligence laws, this becomes even more important. These laws state that both parties can be found partially responsible. However, in order to qualify for monetary damages, the other party must be more negligent (responsible) than you. This needs to be demonstrated using evidence and the skill of an expert attorney.
If you were harmed due to the negligence of someone else, you should call a personal injury lawyer to represent you. Whether you were one of the nearly 80,000 people injured in a Pennsylvania car crash or were hurt at a shopping mall, hiring a lawyer will help increase the likelihood of you receiving a fair settlement offer or a positive outcome to your trial.
Another benefit of hiring an attorney is that you have someone who can deal with the insurance company for you. After an accident, you will receive an incredible amount of phone calls, letters, and forms from your insurance company and potentially, the other parties. These calls and demands for information can become so frequent, it may feel like harassment. The challenge is that what you say and how you respond can negatively impact your case because they are often designed to frustrate you. When you hire a lawyer, the insurance company will no longer work with you directly, providing much needed relief for you and your family.
Protecting your rights starts by proving negligence. The other party needs to be found liable for your injuries in order for you to qualify for any monetary damages. This requires investigating the situation. Simultaneously, an attorney can make sure your rights are protected in areas like your ability to select your own doctor or to receive medical treatments or surgeries as prescribed. The insurance company, their staff, and their lawyers are tasked with minimizing the size of your claim so they can increase company profits. This means your request to visit a specialist could be denied, as could a prescribed surgery. This is where an attorney can be incredibly valuable. We can work to protect your rights by making sure you receive the care you so desperately need.
