Texting while Driving- A Growing Problem

Ipods and other MP3 players create opportunities for distraction and negligence on the road as well. If you have been the victim of someone's negligence because their text message was more important than paying attention to the road- CONTACT US! We can help!
Complex Auto Accident Cases
Car and truck accident cases could potentially involve other complex issues, such as dangerous highway design, dangerous design of an automobile, airbag failure of a truck, as well as liquor liability claims against bars that serve drivers to the point of intoxication. Many parties could be responsible for the accident which caused your injury. These cases may involve multiple defendants, including state and local governments, PA Department of Transportation and vehicle manufacturers.
Pennsylvania Auto Accident Law
Pennsylvania is a bit confusing with the combination of both "no fault" and "at fault." The Pennsylvania auto accident "no fault" provision applies to medical expenses and lost wages, so each insured looks to his/her own automobile policy for benefits, regardless as to the cause of the accident or whether the insured was personally responsible for his own injuries. The Pennsylvania auto accident "fault" provision applies to pain and suffering and other non-economic losses, so the person who acted negligently and caused another's injuries is responsible for compensating the injured for his or her damages. Due to the complexities of the system, those involved in an accident are encouraged to contact a car accident injury attorney in Pennsylvania.
