Wrongful Death

A personal injury claim becomes a wrongful death claim if the victim dies from their injuries. Wrongful death claims differ from personal injury claims in many important ways.

Workers Compensation

You can win a workers’ compensation claim without proving fault, but you normally cannot collect damages for pain and suffering.

Construction Accidents

Construction accidents generate two main types of claims–workers’ compensation claims and premises liability claims. Workers’ compensation claims are easier to win, but personal injury claims usually yield more compensation.

Dog Bites

Homeowners’ and renters’ insurance policies typically cover dog bite claims.  Pennsylvania dog owners are automatically liable for medical expenses caused by their dogs.

What You Can Recover in a Philadelphia Personal Injury Claim?

Medical workers

Following is a list of some of the personal damages that you might qualify for:

  • Past, present, and future medical bills;
  • Past, present, and future lost earnings or occupational disability;
  • Pain and suffering (sometimes three to five times the amount of medical bills);
  • Disfigurement;
  • Mental anguish;
  • Property damage;
  • Loss of consortium (brought by the victim’s spouse)
  • Punitive damages (in unusual circumstances).

If the victim dies, a wrongful death claim invokes a different list of damages. No matter what, however, you have to prove every dollar of the damages you claim. We can help you with this.

After other lawyers rejected my case, Alan saw the merit, did the needed investigation and won me a settlement I thought I might never see.

N.F.
Alan's never say die attitude led to him discovering the existence of a second insurance policy that covered the accident and nearly tripled the settlement value in our case. It has had a big impact on our lives. As far as I am concerned, Tauber Law is the best Philadelphia personal injury law firm out there.

FAQ

Is it worth hiring a personal injury attorney?

Yes, it is worth it unless your claim is small. Even then, you might not know the real value of your claim until you talk to a lawyer. In most cases, an experienced personal injury lawyer will increase the value of your settlement or verdict by far more than their legal fees.

How much are lawyer fees for personal injury?

Personal injury lawyers do not charge by the hour. Instead, they charge a percentage (typically 33% to 40%) of the amount you win. If you win nothing, their services are free. That means you don’t need a dime in your pocket to hire a personal injury lawyer–only a viable claim.

What are the most common personal injury claims?

The most common personal injury claims include:

  • Vehicle accidents;
  • Slip and fall claims;
  • Medical malpractice;
  • Consumer product liability;
  • Dog bites;
  • Workplace accidents;
  • Intentional assaults (a “road rage” accident, for example).

Strictly speaking, wrongful death claims are a separate type of claim.

What is a typical personal injury settlement?

Any average personal injury settlement amount is meaningless because personal injury claims range from minor dog bite injuries to catastrophic injuries involving paralysis and brain damage. Major limiting factors include the coverage limits of an insurance policy and the financial resources of the defendant.
