Do I Need A Personal Injury Lawyer?

An injury can have long-lasting effects that you may spend decades—even a lifetime—dealing with. If someone else’s irresponsible behavior caused you harm, you should seek the fair and just compensation to pay for your hospital bills and the time you have to take off work for recovery. Winning your lawsuit can give you the peace of mind that you are compensated for the costs of your injury. Even if your injury seems insignificant at the moment, you should still consult with a legal professional when you suspect someone else is at fault. You might have future medical expenses you can’t anticipate, and you want to be sure that you have an attorney on your side to pursue the case if you decide to do so.

Munley will Fight For You

Although the monetary value of your case is important, it’s also important to see the person who injured you brought to justice. Not only will this allow you some comfort, but it will also help to prevent another accident of its kind.

If you were hurt in an accident, you might be eligible for compensation including medical bills, lost wages, physical therapy, and pain and suffering. You need a lawyer on your side to ensure that you get the fair and just amount that your claim deserves. An attorney can also ensure that you are not taken advantage of by greedy insurance companies that may look to reduce or diminish your claim. Studies show that individuals who have an attorney receive three times (or more) the amount than people who try to settle their injury claims on their own. By entrusting your case to the team at Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys, you can focus on recovery. Let us handle the paperwork, calls with the insurance company, negotiation, and all of the work that our experienced team knows how to do through our decades of experience. Our services cost nothing to you unless we win your case.

Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle In Carbondale

Car Accidents

Each year, 2.35 million people are injured in car crashes in the United States, which makes it likely that you or someone you love may be involved in an accident at some point in their lives. If you were hurt in a car crash caused by someone else’s reckless, negligent, or distracted driving, you have the right to pursue compensation for your injuries, property damage, and other losses sustained in the accident. Contact us to discuss the details of your case, and your initial consultation is always free.

Truck Accidents

While some firms will claim that they have the resources to handle your case, not all attorneys are capable of handling commercial truck and 18-wheeler accident cases. Carbondale residents are often forced to share the road with large transport vehicles, and accidents occur all the time. The big trucking companies and insurance companies will often try to minimize your claim or may refuse to compensate you fairly for your injuries, so it is important to have a firm that has experience with these particular cases on your side. Our team devotes a specific portion of our practice to handling trucking accident cases, so put our knowledge and experience to work for you.

Workers’ Compensation

We know that most of the jobs in Carbondale and the surrounding areas can be physically demanding and are often dangerous to workers on the job site. If you were injured on the job, you are entitled to collect workers’ compensation benefits to help with recovery and your expenses. If you are denied workers’ compensation by your employer or your employer’s insurance company, a workers’ comp lawyer of Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys can help you secure the benefits you are owed.

It is the responsibility of property owners and managers to protect guests from hazards. If you have been injured in a slip-and-fall accident, dog-bite, porch collapse, construction site injury, or another accident on someone else’s property, turn to the experienced premises liability lawyers of Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys today.

As consumers, we have a reasonable expectation that the goods we purchase are safe to consume or use. If you have been harmed by a defective drug, medical device, vehicle, or other product, we are ready to help you. Our attorneys are investigating claims involving hernia mesh, IVC blood clot filters, Takata airbags, Stryker hip implants, and other potentially dangerous products that individuals in Carbondale may have purchased and used.

Medical Malpractice

Lackawanna County is home to five major hospitals, including Marion Community Hospital in Carbondale. If you are ill or injured, it is likely that you trust your care to physicians and support staff at one of these major medical centers, and if you or a loved one has suffered due to a medical error or misdiagnosis, you do not have to suffer the consequences alone.
