Understanding Pennsylvania’s car insurance requirements can be challenging. The state follows a “choice” no-fault system that can limit the types of damages you can recover after a motor vehicle accident.
The “choice” you have relates to your premiums and potential compensation. If you select a limit tort policy, your premiums will be cheaper, but you cannot recover certain losses, such as pain and suffering, unless you have a severe injury and exceed your medical benefits policy limit. If you select full tort, you pay more for your insurance, but your right to seek damages is unrestricted.
According to the Pennsylvania Insurance Department, drivers must purchase a minimum of:
Medical benefits pay for medical expenses for you and your passengers, regardless of fault for a collision. Liability insurance pays for injuries and damages caused to another party if you are responsible for a crash.
Our Reading car accident lawyer can explain how insurance may affect your case. If necessary, we can work to establish your right to collect damages from an at-fault driver. Contact Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC, online or by phone 24/7 for a free consultation.
Your recoverable losses will vary based on the facts of your case and your insurance coverage. However, in general, if you were in a car accident in Reading, we can seek compensation for the following:
Our wrongful death attorneys can also assist families of fatal accident victims. It would be our honor to seek justice for your loved one. Compensation we can pursue includes medical bills, funeral and burial costs, lost services, support, care, and guidance, and compensation for survivors’ mental pain and suffering.

We take personal injuries personally—we know how these accidents can upend your life. We’ve seen firsthand the effects of negligence on our clients, and we’re determined to get you the compensation you need.
You do not have unlimited time to pursue car accident damages. You should notify your insurance provider and the at-fault party’s provider immediately after a crash to avoid missing policy deadlines.
If we cannot settle your case through insurance, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit in Pennsylvania is two years, according to 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 5524(2). If this deadline passes, the court will likely throw out your case, and you will no longer have legal leverage behind your insurance claim.
