At Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC, our attorneys know how to determine what happened and document how negligence led to your accident and injuries. We represent clients hurt in a wide variety of incidents. Some of the most common include:
Car accidents cause serious injuries when vehicles collide. Liability most commonly falls on careless or reckless drivers who violate traffic laws and cause collisions.
Truck accidents often involve serious injuries due to the size and weight of these large commercial vehicles. While negligent truck drivers often cause these crashes, we often pursue a case against their employer, usually a trucking company.
Motorcycle accidents often result in severe injuries. The liable parties could include negligent drivers who fail to yield or violate other traffic laws or local government agencies who fail to keep roads in a safe condition.
These cases involve negligent motorists colliding with pedestrians or cyclists. Drivers are often liable based on 75 Pa. C.S. § 3542, which states that drivers must yield to pedestrians in marked or unmarked crosswalks.
Pennsylvania property owners owe a duty of care to lawful visitors. If a visitor suffers injuries, the property owner, property occupier, or maintenance company might be legally responsible. Trips, slips, and other falls are the most common examples of premises liability accidents.
Wrongful death actions are possible when someone’s negligence causes another party to pass away. Under 42 Pa. C.S. § 8301, the victim’s personal representative files these cases and pursues compensation for surviving family members.
When you suffer serious injuries because of someone else’s negligence, you are left fighting for a physical recovery while incurring expenses and losses from an accident you did nothing to cause.
The wide range of injuries that could be involved in a personal injury claim is almost impossible to comprehend. Almost any injury that requires medical care could support an insurance claim or lawsuit. Some of the most serious injuries could include:
If you have serious injuries, you will likely need to receive care in a nearby facility listed by the Pennsylvania Trauma Systems Foundation as a designated trauma center. This could include:
These and other facilities can leave you with costly bills, and we’ll work hard to make sure all of your treatments and expenses are covered.
At our firm, we are here to protect your rights and fight for the fair compensation you deserve. From the start, we will evaluate your case, explain your legal options, and guide you through every step of this process. We will conduct a thorough investigation and gather evidence like accident reports, relevant medical records, and witness statements to build the most compelling case possible.
Count on us to handle all communication with insurance companies. We protect you from bad faith tactics and lowball settlement offers. Our team will work to prove negligence, establish liability, and seek compensation for your medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future income loss.
If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, we will take your case to trial. Our Northampton personal injury lawyers handle every aspect of litigation, from filing the lawsuit to presenting evidence and cross-examining witnesses at trial. Afterward, we will assist with collecting your judgment, resolving liens, and any other necessary tasks.
Under 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2), you have two years to file a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit in Pennsylvania. As long as we know about your case in time, we will ensure you meet this and all other applicable timelines in your case.
Your attorney will keep you informed, explain what to expect, and provide the guidance you need to make confident decisions about your case. We will be your advocate every step of the way, fighting for the payout you deserve.
