Montrose Personal Injury Lawyer
Wilkes Barre – Scranton, much of northern PA is very near and dear to my heart. Both my mother and father are from there. My grandparents in fact were coal miners so I’m no stranger to the joys and the heartaches that coal mining has brought to these communities. I still have family there and with so many personal ties to the area, I wanted to be a part of the solution for those who are seriously injured and need our Team’s help.
With all of the pipeline being laid, the hydrofracking, the construction, communities are grateful for the jobs and the money it’s brought to us here. At the same time, some of our loved ones are being seriously injured on these construction sites. People and their families need to know what they’re up against. Big insurance companies answer to Wall Street. When they sell you a policy you’re on a first name basis. Once you get hurt, you’re just a number. If you’re seriously injured and you don’t understand what you’re up against with these big insurance companies, you’re going to get cheated. They more than likely will offer you fast cash. But rarely is that enough to last.
Over two decades defending seriously injured people has taught me how to win in court. Colossus and the other software programs designed to save the insurance companies billions of dollars may be powerful, but it can’t show up in court. And that’s where we win. It’s that working knowledge and grit, that gets our clients in Scranton and Wilkes Barre, Kingston, Montrose, and all across northern PA… every dollar they deserve.

Do I Have a Personal Injury Claim in Montrose, Pennsylvania?
The law provides remedies for individuals who have been injured due to the negligence or neglect of another person or party. These remedies can include financial compensation for losses a person suffered due to an injury, including medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. For a personal injury claim to move forward, a victim may need to show that the accident could have been prevented or avoided had another person or party acted differently or more responsibly. Showing duty of care or responsibility for a personal injury claim will depend largely on the type of personal injury claim you are making. For example, in a car accident claim, injured individuals may need to show that the other driver broke the law or drove recklessly. In a truck accident claim (or other commercial vehicle claim), victims might need to show that the driver or company is responsible if the driver or company broke federal laws or trucking regulations. For workplace related claims, workers may need to show that employers failed to provide safety measures or failed to provide proper training (though if you are making a workers’ compensation claim, you may not need to show employer fault to successfully seek coverage under workers’ compensation). Medical providers and nursing homes also have a duty to their patients and their clients and failure to provide a standard of care could result in a successful lawsuit for victims and their families. Medical malpractice claims can be complicated, requiring the review of a medical expert.
If your personal injury lawyer can show that another person or party had a duty of care, namely, that they had a responsibility in your accident, then your personal injury attorney will need to determine whether you or your family suffered losses or damages because of negligence. Losses or damages can take on many forms. Some kinds of losses can be tracked through medical bills or rehabilitation expenses. Other losses may be less obvious. For example, if you provided childcare or elder care for your family, but now can no longer provide these services, your family may be able to seek damages for the cost of seeking these services outside the home. Victims and their families may also be entitled to seek pain and suffering damages in some circumstances.
Another factor that will determine whether you have a personal injury claim in Pennsylvania, is whether you file a claim within the statute of limitations. In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations is two years. Yet, you shouldn’t wait anywhere near this long before you speak to a lawyer. It can take a lawyer some time to gather evidence and support your case. Ideally, victims and their families should speak to a personal injury lawyer in Montrose, Pennsylvania as soon as possible if they suspect that another person or party was responsible for their injuries or losses.
A personal injury lawyer in Montrose, Pennsylvania at the Stanley Law Offices can review relevant state and federal laws, review standards of care, and review the facts of your case to determine whether your rights were violated to build a case for the negligence or neglect of another person or party. If you were hurt because of another person’s actions or neglect, you may have the right to seek compensation for your losses.
