Pennsylvania Rules That Affect Your Claim
- Deadline: most injury lawsuits must be filed within 2 years of the accident. If a city vehicle, SEPTA or another government agency is involved, written notice is usually due within 6 months. Check your dates with our deadline calculator.
- Fault: you can recover as long as you were not more than 50% at fault, and your award is reduced by your share.
- Car insurance: your own policy pays your first medical bills, and your limited or full tort choice affects pain and suffering claims.
- Where cases are heard: injury lawsuits from accidents in the city are filed in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas. Cases worth $50,000 or less go first to compulsory arbitration.
What to Do After an Accident
- Call 911 and get medical care right away. See why you should go to the hospital even if you feel fine.
- Get a police report. In Philadelphia, crash reports come from the Department of Records. See Philadelphia police districts and crash reports.
- Photograph the scene, the vehicles or hazard, and your injuries.
- Get names and phone numbers of witnesses.
- Don’t give a recorded statement or sign anything for an insurance company before talking to a lawyer.
