Types of Car Accident Cases We Handle

  • Rear-End Collisions: These accidents often result from distracted driving or tailgating and can cause serious injuries, including whiplash and spinal injuries.
  • Intersection Accidents: These accidents are often caused by drivers running red lights or failing to yield the right of way, resulting in T-bone or side-impact collisions.
  • DUI Accidents: Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is a serious offense that can lead to catastrophic accidents and severe injuries. Our attorneys will aggressively pursue justice for victims of DUI accidents.
  • Distracted Driving: These accidents occur when a driver’s attention is diverted from the road, often due to activities such as texting, talking on the phone, eating, or adjusting the radio. These accidents can result in serious injuries or fatalities and may involve multiple vehicles.
  • Hit and Run: These accidents occur when a driver leaves the scene of the accident without stopping to exchange information or render aid. Victims of hit and run accidents may struggle to identify the responsible party, but our attorneys can help investigate the incident and pursue compensation through uninsured motorist coverage or other legal avenues.
  • Passenger Injury Accidents: Passengers in a vehicle involved in an accident can sustain injuries ranging from minor to severe. Whether the accident was caused by the driver of the vehicle they were traveling in or another party, passengers have the right to seek compensation for their injuries, medical expenses, and other damages.
  • Road Defect Accidents: These occur when poor road conditions contribute to or directly cause a car accident. Common road defects include potholes, uneven pavement, missing road signs, and inadequate lighting. Our attorneys can help determine liability for road defect accidents and pursue claims against government entities or responsible parties.
  • Rideshare Accidents: These involve vehicles operated by companies such as Uber or Lyft. These accidents can be complex due to the involvement of multiple insurance policies and liability issues. Our attorneys have experience handling rideshare accident cases and can help you navigate the claims process to recover compensation for your injuries and losses.

How Long Do I Have To File a Car Accident Claim in Pennsylvania?

According to Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations, you have two years from the date of the accident to submit an automobile accident claim. Failing to meet this important date may result in forfeiting the opportunity to pursue damages for accidents-related injuries, property losses, and other damages. This time frame, however, may be extended in certain circumstances, which is why it is crucial to speak with a Butler car accident lawyer as soon as possible after your collision. By engaging with a skilled attorney early on, you ensure that all necessary steps are taken within the required timeframe to build a strong case and pursue the compensation you deserve.

How Is Fault Determined In PA Car Accident Cases?

In Pennsylvania, determining fault in car accidents primarily hinges on establishing negligence by assessing each party’s actions prior to the incident. This evaluation includes examining factors such as violations of traffic laws, reckless driving behaviors, and failures in maintaining a duty of care towards other road users. These elements are crucial in apportioning fault among the involved parties.

Pennsylvania utilizes a modified comparative negligence system in cases where responsibility for a crash is shared by multiple parties. Under this approach, your compensation changes based on your contribution to the blame. Specifically, your recoverable damages are decreased in proportion to your share of fault in causing the accident. Moreover, this system states that if you are determined to be more than 50% at fault, you are barred from getting any damages.

Our Butler car accident lawyers are skilled at evaluating these issues, assessing evidence, and advocating for their clients to secure a fair determination of fault. If you or a loved one were involved in an automobile collision, please call Luxenberg Garbett Kelly George for a consultation. We are ready to investigate the circumstances surrounding your accident, answer all of your questions, and assist you in developing a strong strategy.
