Pennsylvania Personal Injury Laws
Understanding Pennsylvania's personal injury laws is critical for any injury victim. Here are some of the key legal principles that may affect your case:
Comparative Negligence Rule
Pennsylvania follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are partially at fault for the accident, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. However, if you are found to be more than 50% at fault, you may be barred from recovering damages entirely.
Statute of Limitations
In Pennsylvania, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Failing to file within this window can result in your case being dismissed, no matter how strong the evidence may be.
Types of Personal Injury Claims
At Robert Peirce & Associates, P.C., we handle a wide range of personal injury claims in Bethal Park, including:
- Auto accidents
- Truck accidents
- Motorcycle accidents

Each type of case has unique legal challenges, but our firm has the experience and resources to tackle them head-on.
Recovering Compensation
When you're injured due to someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic damages.
Economic Damages
These are tangible losses that have a direct financial impact, including:
- Medical bills (past and future)
- Lost wages
- Loss of earning capacity
- Rehabilitation and therapy costs
- Property damage
Non-Economic Damages
These compensate for intangible losses such as:
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of consortium (for spouses)
Punitive Damages
In rare cases where the defendant's actions were especially reckless or malicious, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior.
At Robert Peirce & Associates, P.C., our Bethal Park personal injury lawyers thoroughly evaluate each case to calculate the full extent of damages. We work with medical experts, economists, and accident reconstruction specialists to maximize your claim.

Can I still recover damages if I was partially at fault?
Yes, as long as you are not more than 50% responsible for the accident. Your compensation will be reduced based on your percentage of fault.
