Car accident claims and lawsuits can be a lot to manage on your own. Not only do you have to field calls from insurers and try to evaluate your losses, but you also have to deal with your own injuries and difficulties related to the crash. Our lawyers know how much work these cases are, and we want to take on some of your burdens.
We’ve spent almost two decades helping the people of Pennsylvania fight for what they are owed, and we’d like to offer our services. As your car accident attorneys, we can:
A car crash means constant communications with your insurer and the other party’s representatives and insurers. This can be stressful, especially since some insurers may try to find a reason to deny your claim. Your statements can be used against you to weaken your claim for damages.
Our team can take over phone calls and other forms of communication to protect you and your case. You should focus on healing during this time, not arguing with insurance adjusters.
Evidence is crucial to every car accident case, and our car accident lawyers will work on collecting this proof. We can retrieve and review evidence like:
If you have any of these or other forms of proof to share with your lawyer, please do so. While we conduct our own investigation, we can use your proof to supplement our own as needed.

When you are in an accident, fault and liability may seem clear. However, crashes can be complex, and our lawyers must be able to prove the other party is negligent. Our Huntingdon Valley team will get to work to prove that the other driver is to blame for the accident, and that you deserve compensation.
Some car accidents can involve multiple parties, and we will make sure to account for this possibility and seek damages from the appropriate parties. For example, if the driver who hit you was in a company car, the employer may be responsible for the accident. Whatever the case may be, we will work to establish liability.
Our lawyers will conduct negotiations with the other party (or parties) to come to a settlement amount that all parties can agree on. Our goal is to get you a settlement that fully compensates you for current and future losses.
However, these negotiations do not always work out. Insurers may refuse to offer a fair settlement, and we will not hesitate to take your case to court. You can trust Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC to guide you through the entire process and prioritize your well-being. Call us today for a free consultation.
Car crashes can leave people like you facing immense physical harm, high medical bills, and severe emotional trauma. One person’s decision can cause a lifetime of issues, and you deserve full compensation for these losses. Every car accident case is different, but we can review your case and seek damages for:
Car accidents can leave victims with painful and serious injuries that require significant medical attention and treatment. You my have expenses related to:
Our Huntingdon Valley car accident lawyers will work with your medical providers to account for future medical needs.
You may be out of work for weeks or months following your accident, and it may even take a year or longer before you can return to work. We can make sure you are fairly compensated for any and all forms of lost income.
Sometimes, car accident victims have long-term or permanent injuries. These injuries make it difficult to perform their previous jobs, if not impossible. They can miss out on advancement and other benefits of their position. If this happened to you, we can make sure you are also compensated for lost earning potential.
Car accident injuries have an emotional and mental impact on victims, and our lawyers are determined to have full compensation for these non-economic losses. Pain and suffering compensation addresses the intangible impact of your injuries.
Emotional distress or anguish helps compensate you for the mental and emotional trauma of your accident. This could address the development of mental health conditions, general distress caused by financial instability, or the emotional impact of catastrophic injuries like amputation or paralysis.
You may have losses not listed above, but we may still be able to seek them. For example, you may have travel expenses if you need to go to another city or state to address your injuries, or you have trouble finding joy in life after your injuries. If a loved one passed away from the car accident, we can seek wrongful death damages for your family.
Whatever damages you may have, let our Huntingdon Valley car accident attorneys help you today.
The sooner you take legal action after a car accident, the better. Pennsylvania law, 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2), establishes a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury and wrongful death actions. If you don’t file a lawsuit within this time period, you may not be able to seek damages at all.
Our lawyers can review your case to check how long you have to act and if any exceptions apply to this deadline. We will manage your case and make sure it obeys these and other legal requirements.
Our Huntingdon Valley legal team is well-versed in establishing liability for car accidents. We must establish four main elements of negligence, which means asking questions like:
Pennsylvania is one of the few states in the U.S. that follows a “choice no-fault” auto insurance system. While 75 Pa. C.S.A. § 1705 establishes that Pennsylvania follows no-fault auto accident system, but drivers can opt out of this limited tort system for full tort coverage.
Limited tort coverage means that you will seek compensation through your own policy first, regardless of fault. This covers medical expenses and additional out of pocket expenses, but you cannot get compensation for noneconomic damages. However, you may be able to pursue a lawsuit if your injuries are serious, and then you can seek additional damages.
Full tort coverage means you can pursue a lawsuit without meeting this serious injury threshold. These laws can be complex, so it’s best to reach out to our team to discuss your options.
You don’t have to face your accident claim all by yourself. The Huntingdon valley car accident lawyers at Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC are here to represent your interests and fight for maximum compensation.
You can call us 24/7 for a consultation. We look forward to seeing how our team can help you with your case.
