Frequently Asked Questions

Can You Sue for Pain & Suffering in PA?
In Pennsylvania, you can indeed sue for pain and suffering as part of a personal injury claim. Pain and suffering compensation is a form of non-economic damages, which are intended to address the emotional and physical distress caused by the injury. This can include mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life, and the physical pain endured due to the injury. The amount awarded for pain and suffering can vary depending on the severity of the injury, the impact on the individual's life, and other factors. However, it is essential to note that Pennsylvania does have a cap on non-economic damages in some medical malpractice cases.

How Long Does Personal Injury Lawsuit Take in Pennsylvania?
The length of a personal injury lawsuit in Pennsylvania can vary greatly depending on the specifics of the case, the complexity of the legal issues involved, and other factors. In some instances, a personal injury claim may be resolved in a matter of months, while others can take several years to reach a conclusion. Factors that can affect the timeline include the extent of the injuries, the number of parties involved, the willingness of the parties to negotiate, and the court's schedule.

What Is the Statute of Limitations for Personal Injury in Pennsylvania?
In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the injury. This means that injured individuals have a two-year window to file a lawsuit against the responsible party. If the lawsuit is not filed within this time frame, the injured person may lose their right to pursue legal action and recover compensation for their injuries. There are some exceptions to this rule, such as cases involving minors or situations where the injury was not discovered immediately, so it is essential to consult with a knowledgeable Harrisburg personal injury attorney to determine the specific deadline for your case.
