Is It Illegal To Drive Without Insurance

Posted October 17th, 2025 by Munley Law Personal Injury Attorneys.

Is it illegal to drive without insurance in Pennsylvania? Yes. Every driver must carry financial responsibility, maintaining liability coverage and medical benefits. Failing to do so can result in serious consequences, including at least a $300 fine, suspension of both your license and vehicle registration, and costly restoration fees. Beyond these penalties, driving uninsured exposes you to devastating financial risks after a crash. In Allentown, our community depends on safe, insured roadways, and when that responsibility is ignored, the impact can be life-changing. At Munley Law, our Allentown car accident lawyer takes on the burden uninsured drivers leave behind, holding them accountable and pursuing every avenue to restore stability for car accident victims in Allentown.

Posted September 29th, 2025 by Bernadine Munley, Esq..

Reading Construction Accident LawyerConstruction work is one of the most physically demanding and dangerous professions in Pennsylvania. For subcontractors, injuries on the job can lead to serious medical expenses, time away from work, permanent disability, and legal confusion about how to get help.

At Munley Law, our experienced workers’ compensation and construction accident attorneys can help you understand your options, assert your rights, and secure the compensation you deserve.

How does comparative negligence work in PA car accidents?

Posted September 29th, 2025 by Bernadine Munley, Esq..

How does comparative negligence work in PA car accidents? In Pennsylvania, it means your financial recovery depends on your share of fault compared to the other driver. If you are less than 51% responsible, you can still seek damages, but your percentage of blame reduces the amount.

Your Pennsylvania car accident lawyer at Munley Law can explain how these rules apply to your crash and what evidence matters most for protecting your claim.

What Is Comparative Negligence?

In Pennsylvania, comparative negligence is a rule that determines how to allocate blame and compensation when more than one person shares fault for a crash. Instead of placing all the blame on one driver, it allows the responsibility to be divided based on what each person did or failed to do.
