< Back Understanding Workers' Compensation in Pennsylvania: A Guide for Injured Workers Brian Q. McDonnell, HKQ Attorney Jun 24, 2024 What should I do if I've been injured at work? Suffering an injury at work can be a horrifying experience, but understanding your rights under Pennsylvania's Workers' Compensation Act is crucial to get the benefits and support you deserve. There are important steps you should take if you've been injured at work. Timely action and following legal requirements to protect your claim are extremely important. Immediate Steps Following a Workplace Injury If you've been injured at work, taking immediate steps can have a big impact on your ability to receive compensation and benefits under workers' compensation: Seek Medical Attention : Your health and safety should be your top priority. If you are hurt on the job, get medical treatment as soon as possible, even if your injuries appear minor at first. Proper and timely medical documentation is essential to establish the severity and cause of your injuries. Secure Evidence : Gathering evidence early on can strengthen your workers' compensation claim. Take photographs of the accident scene and of any equipment or objects involved. The pictures will serve as visual documentation that can provide crucial context and support your account of how the injury happened. Report the Injury : According to Pennsylvania law, you must report your workplace injury to your employer within 120 days of the incident. If you do not report within this timeframe, it may jeopardize your ability to receive benefits under the Workers' Compensation Act. It's essential to notify your employer in writing and keep a record of the communication for your records. Understanding the Workers' Compensation Act Pennsylvania's Workers' Compensation Act provides benefits to employees who suffer work-related injuries or illnesses. Key aspects of the Act include: Medical Benefits : Workers' compensation covers necessary medical treatment related to your work injury, including doctor visits, hospital stays, medications, and rehabilitation services. Lost Wage Benefits : If your injury prevents you from working, workers' compensation provides wage replacement benefits to compensate for lost income. The amount of wage benefits typically equals a percentage of your average weekly wage, subject to statutory maximums. Death Benefits : In tragic cases where a work-related injury results in death, workers' compensation provides benefits to the deceased employee's dependents, including compensation for funeral expenses and ongoing financial support. Legal Requirements and Potential Pitfalls Navigating the workers' compensation process can be complex, and certain legal requirements must be met to protect your rights: Timely Reporting : As mentioned earlier, reporting your injury to your employer within 120 days is crucial. If you fail to do so, benefits may be denied. Statute of Limitations : While you have 120 days to report your injury, you generally have three years from the date of injury to file a workers' compensation claim in Pennsylvania. However, it's advisable to start the claims process promptly to avoid potential complications and make sure you receive timely benefits.

< Back How Vehicle Type Impacts Your Personal Injury Claim HKQ Attorneys Jun 10, 2024 Does vehicle type impact your personal injury claim? Find out from a Hourigan, Kluger and Quinn Personal Injury Attorney. When dealing with personal injury law, it’s important to know that the outcome of your claim could be affected by the types of vehicles involved. Whether it’s a truck crash governed by federal regulations or a car collision subject to state laws, the types of the vehicles involved can significantly shape the legal strategies and potential outcomes of your case. The Role of Insurance Coverage in Vehicle-Related Crashes One critical factor in personal injury claims that is influenced by vehicle type is insurance coverage. Federal regulations require minimum insurance coverage on commercial trucks. These regulations are designed to make sure that crash victims have access to sufficient financial compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and other losses. However, crashes involving private vehicles may not benefit from the same type of comprehensive insurance coverage, and that could limit the compensation available to those injured in a crash involving private vehicles. Regulatory Compliance and its Legal Implications Different types of vehicles are also subject to specific regulations when it comes to safety standards, operational practices, and driver qualifications. Complying with these regulations is crucial to prevent crashes. It can also establish liability in cases where the regulations are violated. For example, commercial trucks must have regular safety inspections, truck drivers must complete strict driver training programs, and their vehicles must be maintained according to industry standards. If any of these regulations are violated, it can be compelling evidence of negligence in any personal injury cases involving truck crashes. State laws govern the operation and maintenance of passenger vehicles, motorcycles, and other modes of transportation. In cases involving car crashes, legal questions often center on whether drivers were obeying traffic laws and whether any violations contributed to the crash and resulting injuries. Specialized Legal Expertise Across a Range of Vehicle-Related Incidents At Hourigan, Kluger and Quinn, our team of dedicated personal injury attorneys brings extensive experience and specialized expertise to handle vehicle crash cases, including but not limited to: Truck Crashes : We fight for victims of truck crashes, using our in-depth knowledge of federal regulations and industry standards to make sure our clients receive fair and just compensation. Car Crashes : Our legal team provides comprehensive representation to clients injured in car collisions. Our team handles everything from negotiating with insurance companies to taking a case to court if necessary to get the maximum compensation for our clients' injuries and losses. Motorcycle Crashes : We understand the challenges faced by motorcyclists who are injured because of the negligence of other drivers. We work diligently to protect the rights of motorcycle riders and we fight to get just compensation for their injuries. Boating and Aviation Crashes : Our attorneys have the specialized knowledge needed to handle complex cases involving crashes on water or in the air. We know the maritime and aviation laws involved and serve as qualified advocates for crash victims and their families. Contact Our Experienced Legal Team Today If you or a loved one has been injured in any type of vehicle-related incident, it is crucial to get help and guidance from knowledgeable legal professionals who can navigate the complex personal injury laws on your behalf.

< Back Safety Tips, Common Causes, and Legal Options for Construction Accidents Kevin Quinn, HKQ Attorney Sep 11, 2025 Your Rights and Responsibilities: Construction Accidents and Legal Recourse Construction sites are among the most dangerous workplaces, with numerous hazards that can lead to serious injuries or fatalities. For construction workers, understanding safety measures, knowing their legal rights, and the steps to take after an accident are crucial. This guide covers common causes of construction accidents, steps to follow if you are injured, and legal options to pursue compensation. Understanding Construction Accident Safety Construction accidents include any incident resulting in injury or harm on a construction site, often due to factors like equipment malfunctions, falls, or safety violations. Construction workers face high risks, but taking safety precautions and understanding legal rights can make a difference in both preventing and responding to accidents. Common Causes of Construction Accidents 1. Falls from Heights: Falls are one of the leading causes of injuries on construction sites, often occurring from ladders, scaffolding, or unfinished structures. 2. Equipment Accidents: Heavy machinery such as cranes, bulldozers, and forklifts can cause serious injury if not used properly or if they malfunction. 3. Electrocution: Construction sites are filled with electrical wiring, tools, and power lines, making electrocution a significant risk. 4. Struck-by Accidents: Falling objects, unsecured materials, or debris can cause struck-by accidents, leading to head injuries or other serious trauma. 5. Exposure to Hazardous Materials: Many construction projects involve hazardous substances like asbestos, chemicals, or lead, which can cause serious injury or long-term health issues if improperly handled. Steps to Take After a Construction Accident 1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention: Prioritize your health by getting prompt medical care, even if your injuries seem minor. Construction accidents can lead to internal injuries or delayed symptoms, so a prompt and thorough medical evaluation is essential. 2. Report the Incident: Notify your supervisor or site manager of the accident. Officially reporting the incident creates a record that may be important for any workers’ compensation or legal claims. 3. Document the Scene: If possible, take photos or videos of the accident scene, any visible injuries, and the equipment or area involved in the accident. Collect contact information from witnesses for future reference. Legal Considerations for Construction Accidents 1. Workers’ Compensation: Most construction workers are covered by workers’ compensation, which can provide medical coverage and wage replacement for injuries sustained on the job. However, these benefits may not fully cover all damages. 2. Third-Party Liability: In some cases, a third party, such as a contractor, equipment manufacturer or supplier, or property owner, may be liable for a construction accident. An attorney can help determine if a third-party claim is possible in addition to workers’ compensation. 3. Preserving Evidence: Keep all records related to the accident, including medical records and bills, accident reports, and repair invoices. Photograph all visible injuries. These documents may be crucial if you are entitled to pursue additional compensation beyond workers’ compensation. When to Seek Legal Assistance Construction accident cases can involve multiple parties and complex legal issues. Consulting with an experienced attorney as promptly after an accident as possible can help ensure that your rights are fully protected and critical evidence is preserved. Legal counsel can also help you understand your rights, explore all compensation options, and advocate for fair treatment. How Hourigan, Kluger and Quinn Can Help At Hourigan, Kluger and Quinn, we are dedicated to helping injured construction workers navigate their legal options and securing the compensation you deserve. Our services include: 1. Legal Guidance: Helping clients understand their rights under workers’ compensation and assessing whether a third-party claim may apply. 2.

< Back Comprehensive Guide: Safety Tips for Preventing and Handling Truck Accidents HKQ Attorneys Oct 31, 2025 Your Rights and Responsibilities: Truck Accidents and Legal Considerations Comprehensive Guide: Safety Tips for Preventing and Handling Truck Accidents Truck accidents are some of the most serious and complex accidents on the road, often resulting in significant injury, property damage, or even fatalities. This guide provides safety insights, legal considerations, and steps to help protect yourself and others when sharing the road with trucks. Whether you’re a driver, passenger, or pedestrian, understanding truck accident risks and legal processes can help ensure a safer experience. Understanding Truck Accident Safety Truck accidents involve any collision where a large commercial vehicle (e.g., semi-trucks, delivery trucks) collides with another vehicle, pedestrian, or structure. Due to their size and weight, trucks can cause severe damage and require specialized handling. Safety, legal compliance, and preparedness are essential for anyone involved in a truck accident. Tips for Driving Safely Around Trucks Maintain a Safe Distance : Give trucks extra space, especially in front of and behind your vehicle. Trucks have longer stopping distances, so avoid following too closely or cutting off a truck, which could lead to a serious collision. Stay Out of Blind Spots : Large trucks have extensive blind spots on all four sides, especially on the right side. Avoid lingering in these “no-zones,” and always pass quickly and safely. Signal and Stay Predictable : Use turn signals well in advance when merging or changing lanes near trucks. Erratic or sudden movements can make it difficult for truck drivers to anticipate your actions. Safety Measures Following a Truck Accident Legal Considerations : Understanding liability and filing procedures is critical. After an accident, you may need to file a claim against the truck driver, trucking company, or other parties if negligence played a role. Gather Evidence : Document the scene by taking photos and videos of the accident, damage, road conditions, and any relevant traffic signals. Record witness statements, if possible. Get Medical Attention : Seek immediate medical evaluation, even if injuries aren’t obvious at first. Due to the impact and force of truck accidents, injuries may be delayed or worsened over time. Emergency Preparedness for Truck Accidents Emergency Contacts : Have your insurance, local police, and emergency contact numbers saved in your phone for quick access. First Aid Kit : Keep a basic first aid kit in your vehicle to address any immediate injuries. First aid can be critical while waiting for emergency services, especially in rural areas. Legal and Safety Compliance Understanding the legal implications of truck accidents can help reduce personal risk and ensure compliance with local and federal regulations: Liability : Truck accident liability can involve multiple parties, including the driver, the trucking company, and even the manufacturer of vehicle parts. Liability may be complex, especially in cases involving equipment failure or improper loading. Penalties : Truck drivers and companies face strict regulations under federal and state law. Violations may result in fines, license suspension, or other legal consequences.
