# Pennsylvania Personal Injury > Last updated: 2026-11-11 Most injury claims in Pennsylvania come down to one question: Did someone else's negligence cause your injuries? A personal injury lawyer in Pennsylvania can answer that question for you and handle your claim from start to finish. For decades, Marzzacco Injury Law has helped [injured people](https://www.klnivenlaw.com/lancaster-personal-injury-lawyer/) across the state get the compensation they need. Why Do Injured Pennsylvanians Choose Our Firm? ---------------------------------------------- Our attorneys answer the phone at any hour, including weekends, and you'll work with the same office from the start of your claim to the end. Our results also speak for themselves. Our attorneys secured $2,150,000 for a young woman who was permanently injured by a teenage driver in Hershey. Before the lawsuit was filed, the insurance company refused to offer more than $600,000. Our personal injury lawyers also recovered $1,265,000 for parents whose daughter was killed by a drunk driver on Interstate 81 in Lebanon County. Every case depends on its own facts, and past results don't guarantee future outcomes. What Types of Injury Cases Do We Handle? ---------------------------------------- Our attorneys handle many types of personal injury claims across Pennsylvania. We handle much more than car accidents, and each type of case has its own rules. Our practice includes: - Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents - Aviation, train, and boating accidents - Commercial vehicle crashes - Lyft, Uber, and taxi accidents - Bicycle and pedestrian accidents - Defective products - Slip and fall accidents - Construction and workplace accidents - Wrongful death Some cases involve more than one type of claim. For example, a workplace injury may involve a workers' compensation claim and a separate lawsuit against an outside contractor. Our lawyers will explain your options before you sign anything. What Compensation Can You Recover in a Pennsylvania Injury Claim? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Pennsylvania divides injury damages into two main types: - Economic damages: Financial losses you can document, such as hospital bills, surgery, therapy, prescriptions, lost wages, reduced earning ability, and property damage. - Non-economic damages: Losses that don't have a set dollar amount, such as physical pain, scarring, anxiety, loss of enjoyment of life, and permanent disability. Insurance companies are more likely to pay economic damages because bills and records show the amount. Non-economic damages usually require medical evidence and testimony. Our attorneys gather that evidence before settlement negotiations begin, so your claim reflects the full impact of your injuries. Proving Fault and Meeting the Filing Deadline --------------------------------------------- To prove liability, you must show that another person or company owed you a duty of reasonable care, failed to meet that duty, and caused your injuries. In Pennsylvania, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. You can still recover as long as you're not more than 50% at fault. Most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the injury under [42 Pa.C.S. ยง 5524](https://www.legis.state.pa.us/WU01/LI/LI/CT/HTM/42/00.055.024.000..HTM). Claims against a government agency also require written notice within a much shorter period. Our attorneys track both deadlines from the start of your case, so nothing is missed.
