Types of McKees Rocks Personal Injury Cases We Handle

A McKees Rocks, PA personal injury lawyer can investigate the cause of your injuries to determine liability. In some cases, fault might lie with more than one person. Ensuring that your case includes all liable parties is where a personal injury lawyer from Berger and Green may help you.

There are numerous ways you can experience a personal injury due to negligence. Here are just a few examples of these types of accidents or events, and the types of parties often liable in each situation:

• Traffic accidents: The liable party may involve a driver, motorcycle operator, or a trucking company that failed to properly maintain their fleet of trucks. We help drivers, passengers, pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcycle riders hurt by another road user’s negligence.
• Slip and fall accidents: The liable party may be a property owner who fails to protect visitors from harm, possibly by failing to properly light the premises or install a stair handrail.
• Medical malpractice: A doctor and/or medical facility may fail to safeguard a patient against a possible medical error, such as a misdiagnosis or surgical mistake.
• Dog bites: You may be able to hold a dog’s owner liable for your injuries from a dog bite.
• Workplace accidents: You may be entitled to both workers’ compensation benefits and compensation from a third-party claim.
• Product liability: A manufacturer can be liable for a defect or manufacturing error that caused an injury to occur. We do not have to prove negligence to hold the manufacturer liable.

If you were seriously injured due to one of these types of negligence or some other type of negligence, consider seeking legal representation.

Possible Recoverable Damages in Your Injury Case

Each personal injury case is different; however, you may be entitled to compensation that covers your current and future financial needs. The outcome of your case depends upon the details of your accident and the severity of your injuries.

Medical Costs

Reimbursement for your medical costs is often a part of recoverable damages. These costs may include medical transport to the hospital, hospital fees, doctors’ fees, and assistive devices.

Ongoing Medical Costs

When you or a loved one experience a serious injury, the medical costs may continue for years or longer. Ongoing medical costs are another type of possible recoverable damages in a personal injury case. Examples of such costs include rehabilitation, therapies, future surgical costs, and prescription medications. You can recover any costs that a doctor predicts you will incur.

Loss of Income

If your injuries left you with an inability to work—either short- or long-term—you are likely entitled to compensation for that loss of pay. You may also receive compensation for your lost earning capacity if you are unable to return to the job you had before your injury.

Pain and Suffering

The pain and suffering you experience can leave you feeling depressed and anxious. You can recover compensation for pain and suffering and other noneconomic damages, such as mental anguish.

Damages for Wrongful Death

If you lost a loved one due to another party’s negligence, please accept our condolences. While you are likely focused entirely on grieving and spending time with your family, you may be able to seek justice and recover compensation through a wrongful death claim. This compensation can allow you to grieve without worrying how you might make ends meet. Depending upon your relationship with the victim, you may qualify for compensation for funeral costs, loss of income, and loss of companionship.

We Handle Cases on Contingency

Injuries can take away your ability to work, leaving you with no way to pay bills or take on any new expenses. When you enlist the help of a personal injury lawyer, you do not have to worry about any upfront costs. In fact, we do not charge attorney’s fees unless and until you recover compensation. If you do not recover compensation for your injuries, we recover no payment for our time. There is no risk when you work with us. You are more than just a case number when you work with our team.
