Types of Cases We Handle
The attorneys at our law firm represent individuals in civil actions that are the result of incidents of intentional or reckless misconduct. When organizations, employers, or institutions fail to protect people from foreseeable harm, they can — and should — be held accountable.
We handle a wide range of complex civil cases, including:
- Inadequate Security or Supervision – Cases where negligence allowed physical assaults or other acts of harm to occur.
- Institutional Misconduct – Failures within schools, organizations, or workplaces that led to preventable harm.
- Physical Assault and Abuse – Civil claims against responsible individuals and entities for intentional or reckless conduct.
- Negligent Hiring or Retention – When companies fail to properly vet or monitor employees whose actions cause harm.
- Other Intentional Acts – Including financial exploitation, intimidation, or other deliberate wrongdoing.
Our experience as former prosecutors gives us unique insight into how criminal and civil systems intersect. We know how to gather evidence, question witnesses, and build powerful cases that stand up in court.

Legal Process and Time Limits
Civil claims based on intentional acts must be filed within strict time limits under Pennsylvania law. While those deadlines can vary based on the facts of each case, early action helps preserve key evidence and witness testimony.
Our attorneys can explain your legal options, help you understand applicable statutes, and outline what steps to take next — all during a confidential consultation.
Our Approach to Civil Justice
When systems fail to protect people from intentional harm, civil litigation is a vital path toward accountability. At Laffey Bucci D’Andrea Reich & Ryan, we work to ensure that corporations, schools, and other institutions take responsibility for the consequences of their failures.
Our trial lawyers bring decades of combined experience investigating complex misconduct and presenting those facts clearly in court. Each case is built with precision, preparation, and a relentless pursuit of truth.
