FAQ Car Accident Lawyer in Lancaster
-
What should I do immediately after a car accident in Lancaster?
You should first seek medical attention—even if you feel fine—since some injuries appear later. Then contact our office at Metzger Wickersham so we can preserve evidence and handle all communications with the insurance companies on your behalf. -
How much does it cost to hire Metzger Wickersham for my car accident case?
We handle car accident cases on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and we only get paid if we secure compensation for you. -
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Pennsylvania?
Under Pennsylvania law, you have a limited amount of time to file a claim due to the statute of limitations. It’s best to reach out to us as soon as possible, as waiting too long could affect your ability to recover damages. -
What kind of compensation might I receive with Metzger Wickersham’s help?
You may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and future care needs. We work to build a complete picture of your losses and fight for the compensation you deserve. -
Do I have to worry if the other driver was uninsured or underinsured?
No. We can explore all available options, including your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, as well as potential legal claims. Metzger Wickersham has extensive experience handling these complex situations. -
Will I have to go to court if I hire your firm for a car accident case?
Not necessarily. Many cases settle before trial, but we prepare every case as if it will go to court. This ensures you have strong, full representation from day one. -
How long will my case take to resolve?
Every case is different. Factors such as injury severity, length of medical treatment, disputes over fault, and insurance negotiations all affect the timeline. We can provide a clearer estimate after reviewing your case details. -
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Pennsylvania follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you may still recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Our team at Metzger Wickersham will evaluate how fault is assigned and advocate aggressively on your behalf. -
What kinds of car accident cases do you handle in Lancaster?
In Lancaster and throughout Pennsylvania, Metzger Wickersham handles a wide range of motor vehicle accident cases, including standard collisions, motorcycle accidents, truck and big-rig crashes, hit-and-runs, pedestrian accidents, and wrongful-death claims. -

If you need help to right a wrong, I strongly recommend calling Metzger Wickersham. They took my case when others said I had none and found those responsible for my injury even after the moving company went out of business. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I received a $30,000 settlement.
