Our firm manages various personal injury cases, ensuring clients across Carlisle and neighboring areas receive comprehensive legal support. We represent victims of slip and falls, dog bites, construction accidents, defective products, and more. Pennsylvania law provides two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit, underscoring the importance of consulting our personal injury lawyers as soon as possible.

Injuries Due to Medical Malpractice

When medical professionals fail to meet the standard of care, the consequences can be devastating. Suppose you or a loved one has suffered due to a misdiagnosis, surgical error, medication mistake, or other medical negligence. In that case, our team of personal injury attorneys will hold negligent parties accountable. In Pennsylvania, medical malpractice claims must be filed within two years of discovering the injury, but no later than seven years from the negligent act (with rare exceptions).  As such, timely action is imperative.

Motor Vehicle Car Accident Injuries

Car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, and pedestrian accidents can result in life-altering injuries. Whether your accident occurred on Route 81, near the busy intersections around the U.S. Army War College, or anywhere else, we are here to help. Victims have two years from the accident date to bring a claim under Pennsylvania law.

Workers’ Compensation Cases

Workplace injuries can disrupt your livelihood and well-being. We assist injured workers in securing workers’ compensation benefits for medical bills, lost wages, and rehabilitation expenses. Workers’ compensation claims in Pennsylvania must be reported within 120 days of the injury, and a claim petition should be filed within three years from the date of the injury.

Injury Claims Due to Vaccines

We also represent clients who have suffered rare but severe injuries from vaccines. These claims often fall under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), a federal program, rather than Pennsylvania state law. Our experienced injury attorneys can guide you through this specialized process, ensuring your claim is filed within the VICP’s three-year statute of limitations from the first symptom of injury.

Wrongful Death Claims

Losing a loved one due to someone else’s negligence is an unimaginable burden. Our firm supports families in Carlisle pursuing wrongful death claims for fatal accidents, medical negligence, or other tragic incidents. In Pennsylvania, wrongful death claims must be filed within two years of the date of death.

Injuries from Nursing Home Negligence

When a trusted care facility fails to protect your loved one from neglect, abuse, or substandard care, legal action may be necessary. Our firm is committed to standing up for victims of nursing home negligence in Carlisle and beyond. As with other personal injury claims, Pennsylvania law provides a two-year statute of limitations to pursue these cases.
