We take our clients’ concerns and well-being seriously and remain committed to representing them as they work to put their lives back together. You can contact us regarding car and truck accidents, motorcycle and bicycle crashes, slips and falls, premises liability claims, catastrophic injuries and wrongful death, defective products, as well as Social Security Disability claims.

Personal injury attorneys like C. William Kenny know your focus is on healing from your injuries and that pursuing an injury case can feel like another stressful task. This is where we can help. Let our personal injury law firm take the burden off your shoulders by handling your case. We can address all the legal hurdles that may be keeping you from getting a fair settlement.

Recovering from injuries after an accident is challenging. To add to those challenges, injured victims must deal with complicated Pennsylvania personal injury laws and insurance companies that may try to get them to accept less than they deserve. Securing legal representation can help you ensure your case is handled properly and that your rights are protected. We can put our experience to work for you as we manage your case from start to finish.

Hiring a Pittsburgh attorney to represent your interests in your personal injury case can save you time. It also ensures your legal matters are being handled while you focus on your family and other areas of your life that need your attention. When we take your case and you become our client, we will:

  • Investigate your accident, reviewing key documents, including witness statements
  • Collect and review evidence to build the strongest possible case
  • Identify who is liable for causing your injuries and/or accident
  • Evaluate all of your damages to give your case a value
  • Communicate with all parties involved in your case, including legal representatives and insurers for the opposing party
  • Handle all negotiations for a fair settlement that meets your needs
  • Prepare and file a lawsuit within Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations if we don’t settle on your behalf
  • Meet all applicable deadlines in your case and take care of all legal paperwork
  • Explain your legal rights and options clearly
  • Keep you updated on all developments in your case

We understand that each case requires personalized attention. We do not apply a one-size-fits-all approach to our cases; we can tailor a legal strategy to suit your unique situation. Our Pittsburgh personal injury lawyers can also keep you updated on your case’s progress and answer any questions that arise. You need an attorney with the experience and dedication to give your case the care it deserves.

Our firm believes that every victim should have access to comprehensive legal services. If you are worried about how much it costs to hire a lawyer, we can put your mind at ease. We take personal injury cases on a contingency-fee basis and do not charge upfront fees to start working, and we only take our payment from a settlement we win on your behalf.

We’ll get started on your case immediately after your free, no-obligation consultation. During this consultation, you can discuss your case and learn about your legal options. We can also explain how our lawyers can help in more detail.

Damages You Could Win in Your Personal Injury Case

Personal injuries often affect victims in various ways, leaving them to deal with losses that affect them physically, emotionally, and financially. A personal injury lawyer from Berger and Green’s injury legal team who handles cases in Pittsburgh and its surrounding areas can help you seek compensation for your monetary damages (economic damages) and non-monetary (non-economic) damages. The amounts awarded for damages vary according to the individual circumstances of the accident and the extent of your injuries.

Economic damages are expenses that can be objectively calculated and proven with documentation. If your injuries require emergency and/or ongoing care, you likely have these damages. These may include:

  • Medical expenses, including therapy, equipment, and rehabilitation costs
  • Lost income from being unable to work
  • Property damage
  • Reduced earning capacity if you cannot return to work

Because non-economic damages do not have a specific monetary value, they can be challenging to prove. Your Pittsburgh personal injury lawyer can help you place a value on these losses. Non-economic damages may include:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Mental anguish
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Embarrassment and humiliation
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Loss of a marital relationship (consortium)

If your loved one died from accident-related injuries, we can help you pursue a wrongful death action. If you win your case, you could recover compensation for:

  • Medical expenses (including final medical bills)
  • Nursing care costs
  • Funeral, burial expenses
  • Other accident-related expenses
  • Loss of inheritance
  • Loss of consortium
  • Your loved one’s pain and suffering
  • Lost wages if you missed work to help them

You deserve to grieve your loved one in peace. We can handle your wrongful death case so you can honor their memory with your family.

Dealing with Insurance Companies: What You Need to Know

The Pittsburgh personal injury lawyers at Berger and Green have been defending Pennsylvania residents against insurers’ tactics for many years. We will ensure you do not say anything that could jeopardize your case. If it would make you more comfortable, we will handle all communications with the insurer or legal team. This means you can sit back and recover while we fight to get you the compensation you deserve. Leave the stress and hassle to someone trained to handle it.

If your claim involves dealing with an insurance company, be aware that insurance companies are out for profit and will likely try to get you to settle for less. They may make you a lowball offer. They may also pressure you into signing a release that keeps you from getting anything additional should your injuries worsen and you wind up needing more care.

Our attorneys know how to deal with insurance company adjusters and their lawyers. We will have a good idea of what your case is worth and can effectively negotiate for a higher settlement. We can also take your case to court if an agreement is not made.

One of the ways insurers can work to undervalue or deny your claim involves your medical treatment. If you choose not to see a doctor or follow through with a treatment plan, they may argue you contributed to your condition. See a doctor immediately after your accident. This will protect both your health and your right to compensation. Even if you do not believe your injuries are severe, play it safe. Some conditions come with delayed symptoms, and you do not want to worsen your injuries.

Do not skip your appointments or give an insurer any reason to deny your claim. Keep copies of your medical documents and receipts. They can help link your injuries to your accident and demonstrate the extent of your losses.
