Some fractures heal cleanly. Others leave permanent hardware, limited range of motion, or chronic pain that never fully resolves. That difference matters legally, not just medically: the severity of a fracture shapes what medical testimony your case needs, how future care gets valued, and what a claim is realistically worth. We build the record around the actual course of your injury rather than the version an adjuster assembles from a few billing codes.
Lead attorney on every case we take, backed by a dedicated legal team you work with directly.
How the fracture happened drives how we handle it. A break from a car crash runs through the at-fault driver's insurer and your own coverage. A break at work runs through workers' compensation, which in Pennsylvania is required of most employers and generally bars a direct suit against your employer, though a negligent third party on the job site can still be pursued. A break from an assault is a claim against the person responsible. We sort out which avenues are open before anyone signs anything.
Your own insurer may cover medical bills, but it will not pay you for lost wages, pain and suffering, or the household help you needed while you could not use an arm or walk on a leg. Recovering that means a claim against the responsible party's insurer or a suit against the wrongdoer directly. Both Pennsylvania and New Jersey generally give you two years from the date of injury. You're matched with a lead attorney and a dedicated legal team, so the claim keeps moving while you focus on healing.
