Monroeville Personal Injury Law Firm

Compassionate with clients, tough on the opposition

In the hours and days following a serious accident, you may feel very overwhelmed, you may be in pain, have medical bills, can't work, maybe worried about your quality of life after your accident.

But if you have been injured through the fault of someone, you may have the right to claim full and fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages and pain and suffering. Mr. Gold will ensure that you receive your rightful compensation.

To begin the process, we ask a lot of questions. We are determined to unearth all the details of your accident. We want names and addresses. We obtain police reports and medical records. We file your claim against the parties who harmed you. We negotiate with the insurance companies that often seek to pay out far less than what you deserve. Don't just take a settlement offer. Let us advocate for your rights to get what you deserve.

Melvin P. Gold, Attorney at Law handles the following types of cases, including:

  • Auto accidents
  • Trucking accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Slip and fall
  • Premises liability
  • Products liability
  • Wrongful death

What to do after an auto accident

If you have been in an accident, take these steps to ensure your rights are protected. Evidence at the site of the accident may disappear and recollections of the incident may cloud.

  1. Call the police and report the accident.
  2. Seek immediate medical attention.
  3. Note the name and contact information of the other driver, including insurance company and the make and model of that driver's vehicle. The police can help you with this.
  4. Note the names and contact information of any witnesses.
  5. Call your insurance company to inform a representative of the accident.
  6. If possible, use your cell phone to take photos of the accident scene and damaged vehicles.
  7. When you are able, take note of the road and weather conditions and the date and exact location of the accident.
  8. Do not discuss the accident with the other driver or witnesses. Do not take any blame as any statement, including what you say to your own insurance company, could work against you.

In Pennsylvania, you normally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. Let Melvin Gold, a Monroeville personal injury attorney with more than three decades of experience, represent you to obtain the compensation you deserve through settlement or trial.
