We Help Victims of Many Types of Personal Injury Cases
When we say we take personal injury claims and lawsuits, we’re talking about cases where the negligent choices of another person caused injuries and other losses. This does not mean the other party meant to hurt others, but they can still be held liable for harm. Some of the personal injury cases our attorneys take include:
Car Accidents
Car accidents are some of the most common personal injury claims we handle. Whether you were driving through neighborhood streets or down major roads like Old York Road, a car accident can leave you struggling to get your life back to normal. Some possible causes of a car accident can include:
- Drunk driving
- Speeding
- Distracted driving
- Negligent driving during snowy, foggy, or other hazardous conditions
Complex auto insurance requirements can make claims confusing, and serious injuries can make it hard to deal with these matters on your own. Our Abington Township car accident lawyers are ready to represent you, establish fault, and navigate these tricky situations on your behalf.
Truck Accidents
Accidents involving commercial trucks are a lot for any victim to handle, especially if they are dealing with catastrophic injuries. Multiple parties can be involved or share liability for damages, but pinning down which ones are at fault is tricky. Federal and state regulations add even more confusion to these claims—you may feel like giving up or accepting whatever offer the other party is making. The truck accident lawyers with our firm are ready to step in and fight these companies for the full extent of your losses.
Motorcycle Accidents
Those who ride motorcycles know just how dangerous other drivers can be. Motorists do not always respect the rights of riders, and this leaves bikers vulnerable to driver negligence. If this happened to you, our motorcycle accident lawyers have what it takes to defend your right to hold the other parties accountable.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Accidents
If you were walking or riding a bike and were hit by a vehicle, you know just how overwhelming the whole ordeal can be. You’re likely in a lot of pain and are facing serious losses. Drivers often blame bicyclists and pedestrians for the accident, saying they didn’t obey the rules of the road. However, driver behavior is a major factor in these accidents, and our Abington Township motorcycle accident attorneys are determined to hold these parties liable for your harm.
Slip and Fall and Other Premises Liability Claims
Property owners and other parties have a duty to their victors to provide a safe premises. When these parties fail in this duty, it leaves people like you wondering how they can move on from their injuries. Whether you slipped and fell at a local shopping center, were bitten by your neighbor’s dog, or encountered another hazard on someone’s property, we can help you seek compensation for your losses.
Wrongful Death Claims
Tragically, some of these personal injury cases can be fatal. Whether your loved one passed at the scene of the incident or later died because of their injuries, your family can take legal action on their behalf. No amount of money can ever make up for this terrible loss, but your family deserves closure, justice, and an acknowledgment of your pain. Our wrongful death attorneys would be honored to help you during these difficult times. Call Kalikhman & Rayz now to get started with a free consultation.
What an Abington Township Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
Insurance claims and injury lawsuits involve many tasks. Injury victims may struggle to navigate these processes, especially when they are seriously injured. If you are hurt, you do not have to face these challenges alone. A personal injury lawyer in Abington Township with our firm will:
- Assess Your Losses: No matter what kind of accident you were in or what injuries you have, you and your family can have serious losses. Our team will review your case and evaluate the extent of your losses, making sure to account for economic and non-economic damages alike.
- Communicate With Insurers: Insurance companies often reach out to victims for statements, but these conversations can be hard to navigate alone. These parties can twist your words and make it seem like you are at fault or are not seriously harmed. These statements can weaken your case and leave you feeling like you have no options. If you work with our firm, we take over all communications and guide you through any conversations you may have with these parties.
- Negotiate Settlement Offers: When seeking compensation, we may be able to work out a settlement with the other party. At-fault parties and their representatives often avoid going to trial, and they may be willing to make a fair offer.
- Represent You in Court: Although many personal injury cases are settled without going to trial, we’re prepared for this possibility.
- Work With Experts to Support Your Case: Testimonies and reports by various experts can help strengthen your claim for damages. For example, we may call on an accident reconstruction expert who can provide details about your auto crash and how the other party’s actions contributed to the collision.
- Take Your Case on Contingency: Many people think they cannot afford legal help. However, our contingency-fee arrangement means anyone can seek legal help. You only pay our firm if we win. Otherwise, you owe us nothing.
These are just some of the ways our team can help you, and you can learn more when you reach out today.

How Do Abington Township Personal Injury Lawyers Determine Fault?
Negligence is an important legal concept for most personal injury cases. There are four main elements to this concept: duty of care, breach of this duty, causation, and losses.
- Duty of care refers to the concept that everyone has a responsibility to minimize harm to others. For example, a store owner should reduce hazards on the premises and a truck driver should follow traffic laws to reduce the risk of an accident.
- A breach of the duty of care means the party did not act in a way to reduce this harm. In the example of the truck driver, a breach could mean they were doing something illegal or reckless, like driving while intoxicated.
- Directly linking this breach to your injuries or accident is what lawyers call causation. We must show that this party’s actions (or inaction) are the direct cause of your harm.
- We must also show that you suffered damages because of these actions. Medical bills, doctor’s notes, victim statements, and other forms of proof can help support your claim of injuries and losses.
Establishing negligence and identifying liable parties comes with many pitfalls, so let an Abington Township personal injury attorney with our firm handle these tasks on your behalf.
Don’t Wait Too Long to Start a Lawsuit in Abington Township
When you are hurt in a car accident, a slip and fall, or other incident, it’s tempting to focus only on your health. You may put off important tasks, but this can put your right to seek compensation at risk.
Pennsylvania personal injury lawsuits have a three-year statute of limitations. According to 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2), you only have three years from the date of the incident to seek compensation from the at-fault party. If you miss the deadline, you cannot take legal action.
The sooner you can call us, the sooner we can get started on your case. We can determine how long you have to act, figure out if any circumstances affect this deadline, and file your suit for damages.

FAQs
How is fault determined in a parking lot accident at the Fairway Shopping Center?
Fault is determined by reviewing surveillance footage, witness statements, and the “right of way” rules for parking lanes. If a negligent driver backed into you or sped through a stop sign at the Fairway, our Abington Township legal team can help prove their liability.
Can I sue for an injury caused by an aggressive dog at Alverthorpe Park?
Yes. Even in public parks, owners must keep dogs under reasonable control. If a dog on a retractable leash or one running loose at Alverthorpe bit you, the owner is liable for medical costs and potentially additional damages for scarring.
Can I seek compensation if my car was hit by a speeding police car in Abington Township?
Yes. While the Abington Township Police Department has sovereign immunity, an exception exists for vehicle negligence. If a cruiser from the Patrol Division hit you, you can seek compensation, but you must file a formal notice of claim within six months to preserve your right to sue.
Who is liable if I slipped on a floor leak at the Willow Grove Park Mall food court?
The mall’s janitorial service and the specific food vendor may share liability. If a spill was left uncleaned for an unreasonable amount of time, we subpoena maintenance logs to prove they failed their duty to keep Abington Township shoppers safe.
