Bodily injury claim in Pennsylvania

A bodily injury claim in Pennsylvania is based on the wrongdoing of another person or party. When you’re hurt because another party acts negligently, recklessly or intentionally, you may demand compensation. The purpose of Pennsylvania’s bodily injury law is to ensure that the person who causes the accident is ultimately responsible to pay for the financial losses that result. The law also allows a victim to recover compensation for pain and suffering as part of their bodily injury claim.

How long after an accident can you sue in Pennsylvania?

For most types of accidents, you can sue up for to two years after the accident. Pennsylvania law 42 Pa. Consol. Stat. § 5524(2) sets the deadline to file a claim for most accidents at two years. Car accidents, property damage, medical malpractice and products liability fall under the two-year time limit. There are some situations where the time limit can be extended, so it’s always important to speak with an experienced attorney about your case.
