A serious accident can upend everything fast — medical bills, time off work, and an insurance company that moves quickly to protect itself while you’re still figuring out what happened. If you were injured in Dunmore or the surrounding area, Munley Law’s Scranton office handles personal injury cases for residents throughout this part of Lackawanna County.
We work on a contingency fee basis — no upfront cost, and no fee unless we recover compensation for you.
Personal Injury Claims in Dunmore and Lackawanna County
Dunmore is a residential borough with active commercial corridors along Blakely Street and North Blakely Street, Route 6 running through town, and Route 347 connecting it to the surrounding communities. Like any borough in the greater Scranton metro, it sees car accidents, slip and fall incidents on commercial properties, and workplace injuries.
Personal injury law allows you to pursue compensation when someone else’s negligence caused your harm. What makes these cases complicated in practice is gathering and preserving the right evidence, navigating insurance company tactics, and calculating the full value of your damages — not just current medical bills, but future care, lost earning capacity, and non-economic losses like pain and suffering.
Common Case Types We Handle for Dunmore Residents
- Car Accidents. Accidents on Route 6, Blakely Street, and the connector roads between Dunmore and Scranton are common. We investigate the fault, deal with insurers, and pursue the full value of your claim.
- Slip and Fall and Premises Liability. Property owners in Dunmore — retail stores, restaurants, parking lots, rental properties — are legally responsible for maintaining reasonably safe conditions. If you were injured on someone else’s property, we can evaluate your claim.
- Workers’ Compensation. If you were hurt on the job, Pennsylvania’s workers’ comp system provides medical and wage benefits regardless of fault. We represent injured workers from the initial claim through appeals if needed.
- Wrongful Death. If you lost a family member due to someone else’s negligence, a wrongful death claim can provide compensation for funeral costs, lost financial support, and the loss of companionship.
Pennsylvania Law and Dunmore Injury Claims
Pennsylvania has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims. Missing that deadline almost always means losing your right to recover. Pennsylvania’s modified comparative negligence rule allows you to recover even if you were partly at fault, as long as you were less than 51 percent responsible — but your compensation is reduced proportionally.
