Car crashes are an unfortunately common reality on streets across the United States. In 2022, our state saw 71,655 auto accidents, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. These crashes resulted in 29,988 injuries and 486 fatalities across the state. Recent Lower Merion Police Department Annual Reports show that roads in our area have become somewhat safer in the past few years compared to a 10-year high of 2,607 traffic crashes in 2017, but hundreds of people are still injured locally every year.
While some of these incidents occur without fault, far too many are attributable to the reckless, negligent, or wrongful actions of the person who caused the crash. When you or someone you love has been injured in a crash, you deserve the chance to secure compensation to not only cover the cost of your medical bills, car repair, and recovery time but also to help safeguard your future from issues arising from your injuries.
When you choose to take legal action, it’s important to work with a firm you can count on to have your best interests at heart and the knowledge required to secure the outcome you need. At Laffey Bucci D’Andrea Reich & Ryan, we have more than a century of combined experience helping victims and their families fight for the justice and compensation they deserve.

Some of the leading causes of car accidents include:
While there are numerous reasons behind car accidents, the fault often rests with the other drivers. Their decisions put others at risk, which can lead to injuries.

In most cases, the other driver is the main party responsible for an accident. However, there are times when another parity could be liable as well, such as:
Often, car accident victims believe that if they were somehow responsible for the accident, they cannot file a lawsuit. Since Pennsylvania follows modified comparative negligence statutes, if you were at less than 51% of the fault for the accident, you have the right to recover compensation from the responsible party.
When it comes to damages in a personal injury lawsuit resulting from a car accident, you might be able to recover a few types of compensation, such as:
If your accident resulted from extreme negligence or intentional misconduct by the at-fault party, you might be awarded punitive damages. However, remember that punitive damages are not awarded in every case.
