Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I have a case if the other driver says it was my fault?

    Yes, you might still have a case — especially in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, which follow modified comparative negligence rules. That means even if you were partially at fault, you can still recover compensation as long as you're not more than 50% responsible. Insurance companies often try to shift blame to reduce what they owe, but that doesn’t mean they’re right. We’ll carefully investigate the facts, gather evidence, and work to protect your right to recover.

  • What if I was injured in a rideshare?

    Accidents involving Uber or Lyft can be complicated because multiple insurance policies may apply depending on what the driver was doing at the time. If the rideshare driver was “on the app,” their commercial coverage may apply — but if they weren’t logged in, it may fall to their personal insurer. Whether you were a passenger, another driver, or a pedestrian, we can help you figure out who’s responsible and fight for the compensation you deserve.

  • How long do I have to file a claim in Pennsylvania or New Jersey?

    In both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims — including car accidents — is two years from the date of the accident. But there are exceptions. Claims against government entities (like transit authorities or municipal buses) often require special notice. Missing these deadlines can mean losing your right to recover anything. That’s why it’s so important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

  • Will I have to go to court?

    Not necessarily. Most car accident claims are resolved through settlements — often without ever stepping foot in a courtroom. That said, we always prepare your case as if it might go to trial. Having a strong case from the start puts you in the best position to negotiate a fair outcome. If the insurance company refuses to make a reasonable offer, we’re ready to take the next step and advocate for you in court if needed.

  • Can I still get compensation if the driver didn’t have insurance?

    Possibly. If the at-fault driver was uninsured or fled the scene, you may be able to file a claim through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage — if your policy includes it. This type of coverage can pay for your medical expenses, lost wages, and more when the other party can’t. We’ll review your insurance policy, explain your rights, and help you pursue all available options for compensation so you’re not left paying the price.
