Determining Negligence in Personal Injury Cases
Proving Negligence
If you’ve been injured due to someone’s negligence, you must show that they owed you a duty of care, they breached that duty of care, and that breach caused your damages.
Modified Comparative Negligence
Modified comparative negligence is a legal doctrine apportioning fault to each party involved in a personal injury case. A plaintiff’s monetary judgment is reduced by the percentage of negligence assigned to the plaintiff by the jury.
In Pennsylvania, a personal injury plaintiff can only seek damages from a defendant if the plaintiff is less than 51 percent at fault for the accident.
The Role of a Personal Injury Lawyer
Evaluating Your Case
When evaluating your personal injury case, we’ll discuss your accident, review your medical records, and calculate your lost wages, present and future medical expenses, and other damages.
Gathering Evidence
We investigate the circumstances of your accident including interviewing witnesses and obtaining police reports.
Establishing Liability
We identify all parties who may be responsible for your accident and establish the duty of care that they breached.
Negotiating a Settlement
We put our years of experience working with insurance companies to assess the value of your claim and advocate for full payment of your claim.
Litigating and Holding People and Institutions Responsible
When the insurance company refuses to pay what you deserve, we do not hesitate to litigate on your behalf. A jury of your peers can force the responsible parties to pay you.
Potential Damages Available in a Personal Injury Claim
Compensation in Philadelphia personal injury cases varies as widely as the types of accidents and injuries that occur. A personal injury plaintiff can get compensated for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering
Special Compensatory Damages
In Pennsylvania, the financial costs you incur because of someone’s negligence are called special compensatory damages. These include medical bills, such as the costs of tests, procedures, treatments, hospital stays, medications, and therapies, as well as the costs of any special equipment you need because of your injury, such as a wheelchair, and the costs of any modifications you must make to your home because of your injury.
Special compensatory damages also include the wages you can't earn because you miss work due to your injury. If your injury has left you with a diminished capacity to work, you can be compensated for the loss of future wages.
Last, if you’ve suffered property damage due to the accident, such as damage to your car, you can recover those costs in the form of special compensatory damages.
General Compensatory Damages
In Pennsylvania, non-economic damages are known as general compensatory damages. You can be compensated for your emotional suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, continuing physical pain, disfigurement, and loss of companionship if your injury changed your relationship with your spouse.
Punitive Damages
In Pennsylvania, personal injury plaintiffs get punitive damages if the defendant’s actions are particularly egregious, such as when they act or fail to act in reckless disregard for the safety of others. These damages are meant to punish the defendant and also deter others from acting as the defendant did.
As a general rule, punitive damages are limited to twice the amount of compensatory damages received in Pennsylvania.
