FAQ Car Accident Laywer in Pottsville
1. What should I do right after a car accident near Pottsville?
First, seek medical attention—even if you initially feel fine. Then contact our Pottsville office so we can preserve evidence, handle insurance communications, and guide you through the next steps.
2. Will it cost anything upfront to hire Metzger Wickersham for my car accident case?
No. We handle auto-accident claims on a contingency-fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we secure compensation for you.
3. How much time do I have to file a claim after my crash?
In Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations is strict. Metzger Wickersham recommends contacting us as soon as possible to protect your rights and avoid missing key deadlines.
4. What types of compensation can I pursue with Metzger Wickersham’s help?
You may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, future care needs, pain and suffering, property damage, and more. We work to identify the full extent of your losses and pursue fair recovery.
5. What happens if the other driver has no insurance or very little coverage?
We can explore your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage and other legal options. Metzger Wickersham has extensive experience handling these complex insurance situations.
6. Do I need to go to court for a car accident case handled by your Pottsville office?
Not always. Many cases settle outside of court. However, we prepare every claim as if it may go to trial so you’re fully protected and well-represented regardless of how your case proceeds.
7. What if I was partly at fault for the accident? Can I still recover?
Yes. Pennsylvania follows a modified comparative negligence rule. As long as you are not more than 50% at fault, you may still be able to recover compensation. Our team will evaluate fault and work to protect your interests.
8. What kinds of car accident cases does your Pottsville office handle?
We handle a wide range of accident cases, including rear-end collisions, distracted-driving crashes, DUI accidents, hit-and-runs, truck accidents, pedestrian injuries, and more. Our team has the resources to manage even the most complex claims.
9. How long will my case take?
Every case is unique. The timeline depends on factors such as injury severity, duration of medical treatment, liability disputes, and insurance negotiations. We keep you informed with realistic expectations and regular updates.
10. Why should I choose Metzger Wickersham in Pottsville?
