• Ask yourself, “Do I even need a lawyer?” If you begin speaking with some law firms, they may make you believe you need a personal injury lawyer when you really don’t. If your doctor confirms that your injuries are very minor, if you have not had any diagnostic testing, or if you have not missed time from work, you likely do not need to hire a lawyer.

• Research: The best place to begin research is by asking friends and family for recommendations. Then, move on to a firm’s website to read peer and customer recommendations, if there are any available.

• Consultation: Most Bucks County personal injury lawyers offer a free consultation. We recommend that you take them up on it and meet them face to face.

-    A neck strain is when a muscle in the neck is stretched or torn.

For more information on this project, read our new article, titled “Can the Number of Accidents on I-95 in Bucks County be Reduced?”

But why would a project by the PA Turnpike Commission make traveling on I-95 easier, since these two Pennsylvania highways are not currently connected?  The proposed plan would do just that—connect the Pennsylvania Turnpike to Interstate-95 in Hulmeville, PA.  Planners hope that this proposal will have the following positive outcomes:

• An easy, direct route from the PA Turnpike to I-95

• Reduce the amount of traffic on local artery roads which are currently used to travel between the highways

• Reduce confusion for those traveling in the area who are not familiar with the highways

As part of stage 1 of the construction in Hulmeville, Bucks County, the local sections of I-95 and the PA Turnpike will be enlarged and repaired in order to better handle the volume of traffic and hopefully reduce the number of PA accidents in these areas.

It is important that you visit your doctor very soon after you are injured in a PA or NJ auto accident, and then again if your pain is persistent. You should only begin a massage therapy program after consulting with a physician for a recommendation.  If your doctor recommends massage therapy specifically for your  PA  auto accident injury, your costs may be covered by insurance.

The three most common types of scarring are:

1. Keloid. This type of scarring goes beyond the original injury.
2. Contracture. This is the type of scar that you will experience if you have been burned in your car accident.
3. Hypertrophy is much like keloid because they both look red and raised but hypertrophy does not go beyond the initial injury.

To treat these scars, you have three common options:

1. Over-the-counter creams or ointments. This can help to reduce itching or swelling.
2. Steroid injections.
3. Surgical removal.

MRSA is a staph infection that packs super strength and can be fatal.  Staph bacteria live on our bodies, but can also find their way into our bodies, through a cut or surgical incision, which can cause infection.   Since many people who sustain serious injuries as a result of a PA car accident are often badly cut up, or in some cases require surgery and/or a lengthy hospital stay, contracting MRSA is a concern.

We at Saile & Saile LLP know that as an accident victim, your personal injury claim may go beyond the initial injury if you have the added suffering of a MRSA infection.  You can learn more in our article.

If you or a loved one has sustained accident injuries in a Philadelphia or Bucks County accident and subsequently acquired a MRSA infection during necessary treatment, a Bucks County personal injury attorney can help you obtain full and fair compensation for your best possible recovery.  For more information, get our FREE PA Car Accident Guide.
