At Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC, our team of diligent, attentive lawyers provides strong advocacy and representation to every client. We believe everyone deserves honesty and respect, and we pair this with compassionate care for those who suffered injuries due to the fault of another party.
We want to arm our clients with as much knowledge about their case and the applicable laws as necessary so they can make informed choices. Of course, we are also here to provide guidance and advice as we navigate the claims process for them.
Insurance companies often tell victims misleading things and use unfair tactics to reduce the value of a claim or deny it entirely. They do not have your best interests at heart, and that is where we come in. You do not have to try to handle this on your own. We will protect your rights and fight for the maximum compensation possible based on your case facts.
Although we are located on 7th Street between Gordon Street and Chew Street, our attorneys can meet with you in our office, at the hospital where you receive treatment, in your home, or at another location. We also offer telephone and video conferences. You will always speak with an attorney when you call our firm to discuss your legal options. Your initial consultation with our team is always free.
We are contingency fee lawyers. We do not charge upfront expenses or fees. We do not believe it is fair to ask victims hurt by someone else’s carelessness to pay for the legal representation to fight for the money they deserve. We receive our attorney’s fees from the money we recover. If we do not win your case, we will not get paid.
Premises liability injuries can differ widely based on what happened and the type of accident that occurred. Slip and falls, pool accidents, dog bites, and electrocutions can all fall under the premises liability category but cause very different injuries. We can help you regardless of the severity of your injury or how long you might require care and support for a new disability.
Some of the most serious injuries we see in our clients involve life-altering, long-term impairments. They require hospitalization, often in the intensive care unit. Then, inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient therapy may follow. We have the experience and understanding to identify and pursue compensation for their ongoing care and support needs. Some of the common damages we recover for our Allentown, PA, clients include:
We know how to identify the costs, future care expenses, and losses associated with these injuries and document their value. We use bills, receipts, other paperwork, and expert testimony to show the value of the case.
We also represent clients whose loved ones died from premises liability injuries in Allentown. If you lost a family member in an incident on someone else’s property, you could have a viable wrongful death case against the property owner or business operator.

At Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC, our attorneys provide free consultations for injured victims in Allentown, PA.

We are familiar with the campus at Lehigh Valley Hospital (LVH)–Cedar Crest, where the Fleming Trauma System and Mattioli Level I Trauma Center provide care for most serious injuries in Allentown. We can also meet with clients in their homes, our Allentown office, or another hospital location. We offer telephone or video call conference options, too.
We know what it takes to have a viable premises liability case in Allentown. These cases are based on injuries that occur because of a hazard on someone else’s property. The liable party in these cases is generally the property owner, although sometimes it is the leaseholder of the property. This could mean you have a case against:
Some types of premises liability injuries occur in incidents such as:
Property owners owe guests a duty of care under Pennsylvania law. They must keep their property—inside and out—free from unreasonable hazards that could cause injuries. When they fail to do so, and an injury occurs, this is negligence.
A victim of negligence can hold the liable party accountable for the injuries and related financial damages that occur. For example, imagine you suffered a fractured wrist in a fall at a big box store such as Wal-Mart or Target. There was a spill, and you slipped on the wet floor. Our attorneys can:
This should support a demand for fair compensation from the store or a slip and fall lawsuit if that becomes necessary. We know how to develop strong support for the cases we negotiate or litigate, including investigating what happened, collecting evidence, and organizing it into a compelling argument for fair compensation.
When our premises liability lawyers represent a client hurt in Allentown, we often settle the case without needing to prepare for litigation and take the case to trial. When we have strong evidence and use it to support our client’s claim based on the property owner’s insurance policy, we often recover fair compensation through a negotiated settlement.
However, lawsuits are sometimes necessary. We may prepare and file a complaint in the Lehigh County Courts based on a premises liability injury under some circumstances. This could include:
Our attorneys provide advocacy and legal representation throughout our handling of your claim. From the day you hire us until the case closes, and you get paid, we are here to ensure you have the information you need to make the best decisions in your case.
Generally, 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2) gives you up to two years from the date the injuries occurred to begin an injury lawsuit. You may have two years from the date of death for a wrongful death lawsuit.
However, you should not wait until this time limit approaches. There is a lot of work to do in the first days and weeks after an accident. If you contact us about your case early, we can protect your right to fair compensation by preserving time-sensitive evidence, dealing with the insurance companies on your behalf, and building a strong case from the beginning.
