Archbald is a Lackawanna County borough on Route 6, about ten miles north of Scranton on the corridor that connects the city to Carbondale and the surrounding communities. It is small and largely residential, but accidents happen here just as they do anywhere — on Route 6, on Route 247 through the borough, in the commercial areas along those roads, and in the workplaces that employ Archbald residents.

Archbald sits in the northern part of Lackawanna County, near the border with Susquehanna County. Route 6 runs through the borough and connects it to both Scranton to the south and Carbondale to the north. Route 247 provides another north-south connector. The Archbald Pothole State Park, just outside the borough, is one of the area’s notable landmarks — a glacially carved pothole recognized as one of the largest of its kind in the world.
Like much of northeastern Pennsylvania, Archbald was shaped by the coal mining era, and today its residents commute to jobs throughout the Scranton metro and beyond. Workplace injuries, road accidents, and slip and fall incidents are the most common personal injury situations we handle for clients in this area.
