How can a personal injury attorney help me?

A Bensalem personal injury attorney can help victims of accidents pursue compensation from the parties who should be held legally responsible. Parties that may be held liable for an accident can range from individuals to small businesses to entire corporations — or a combination of these.

Your attorney will walk with you through the entire legal process. They can advise you about what legal avenues are available and assist you in pursuing the best option for your situation. 

If you’ve suffered an injury and are unsure of your next step, we can help determine your best path forward.

What damages can I recover in a personal injury case?

In a personal injury case, there are two categories of damages that the court may award: compensatory and punitive.

  • Compensatory damages include current medical costs, future medical costs, lost earnings, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, mental anguish, disfigurement, and dismemberment. 
  • Punitive damages are typically in play when an offending party has consciously acted in a manner that might harm another person, such as failing to include a warning with medication or distracted driving.

What types of cases do personal injury attorneys handle?

The personal injury claims we handle include those resulting from:

Car Accidents

Being involved in a serious auto accident caused by a negligent driver can wreak havoc on you and your family. Because of your mounting medical bills, lost wages, and your pain and suffering, you may be entitled to significant compensation. Our experienced car accident attorneys offer free case reviews and will help you make the best decisions about your legal rights. Don’t leave it up to the insurance companies to handle your accident properly. You NEED proper representation from an attorney that is focused on getting you the best possible outcome and compensation.

Truck Accidents

Truck accidents are becoming increasingly common as more items are being ordered online. Truck accidents in Bucks County can be caused by a semi-truck, delivery truck, moving van, or construction vehicle accidents typically lead to life-changing injuries, or fatalities, for the smaller car passengers. If you’ve been seriously injured or a loved one has died due to a large truck collision, you require the expertise of an experienced and proven truck accident lawyer.

Motorcycle Accidents

With fewer protections, motorcyclists are at risk of serious injuries or even fatalities while riding. If you’ve been in a motorcycle collision and were severely injured or a family member suffered a fatality, you need an experienced motorcycle accident attorney.

Dog Bites

Animal bites, including dog bites, can be extremely frightening and may cause significant injuries. The animal owner, business owner, or property owner may be held financially responsible for your lost wages, medical bills, and your pain and suffering. If you wish to file an animal bite lawsuit, you need a dog bite injury lawyer. We offer a free consultation and there is no fee unless we win. 

Workplace Injuries

Pennsylvania workers are denied workers comp benefits daily. If you’ve been seriously injured at work and you’ve been denied, you require a skilled work injury lawyer to fight for your rights to collect PA worker’s compensation benefits.

When should I contact a lawyer?

What you do in the time period directly after you’ve suffered a personal injury is important when it comes to any future compensation you might win.

While the offending party’s insurance company may offer you a quick settlement, it isn’t in your best interests to accept any compensation before you have sought legal advice. The insurance company is most certainly underestimating your rightful compensation to avoid having to pay you the amount you’re owed.

If you have sustained a personal injury through no fault of your own, whether you were at work, at home, or in public, you should contact a Bensalem personal injury lawyer immediately.

At Cordisco & Saile, we offer a free consultation to help you determine how to proceed with your case and who might be liable.

I cannot say enough positive things about Cordisco and Saile.

The attorney Steven DeBonis consistently updated me on negotiation statuses and reviewed my treatment to intelligently talk about my case. C&S settled my case quickly and I would not recommend anyone else.

Frequently Asked Questions

Perhaps you were injured in an accident where you were not at fault but couldn’t pursue compensation until after you had recovered from your injuries. Thankfully, there is a clear legal precedent for this exact scenario.

In every state, there’s a statute of limitations dictating the amount of time that can pass between your injury and when you are no longer able to pursue compensation.

The specific amount of time varies from state to state and can be dependent on factors such as the seriousness of the injury. However, there is no law in any state against pursuing a settlement after you have recovered from your injuries.

In the state of Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is two years. This means that under Pennsylvania state law, you have two years from the date of the incident that caused the injury to pursue a claim.

Many victims have health insurance, which can help cover medical costs until they receive a settlement. However, there are still co-pays and premiums to consider, as well as costs that might not fall under your provider’s protection.

 

In cases such as these, there are still options. You can take out a personal loan to cover the costs and then pay it off once the court awards your settlement. There are also auto insurance companies that sell gap insurance, which covers what other insurance providers may not. 

 

Figuring out your next steps when your bills are piling up can be incredibly stressful. Experienced personal injury attorneys can offer trusted guidance in cases such as these to put your mind at ease.

Personal injury attorneys typically work on a contingency-fee basis — also referred to as “no recovery, no fee.” This means that personal injury attorneys do not require you to pay a flat fee for their services, and if they lose your case, you will not be required to pay them anything.

 

Instead, if they win your case, your lawyer’s fees will be deducted from your final personal injury settlement.
