Hurt in Pennsylvania?
They Owe You.
From Philadelphia's I-95 corridor to Pittsburgh's confluence and the Fort Pitt Bridge to the Pennsylvania Turnpike to the Lehigh Valley — Pennsylvania is a modified-comparative-negligence state with a 51% bar, 2-year personal injury filing deadline, and a 6-month sovereign immunity notice window. Madison Law Firm PLLC coordinates with PA-licensed co-counsel under written disclosure.
How Pennsylvania Law Works.
The four things that change when your injury case is in Pennsylvania.
filing deadline
Most Texas personal injury cases (car accidents, slip and fall, product liability, medical malpractice) must be filed within 2 years of the accident date under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Missing this deadline is absolute — failure to file within 2 years bars the case permanently.
Time matters
Don't wait. Evidence gets lost fast — security camera footage often disappears within days. There's also a deadline to file. The sooner you call, the more we can do.
Sovereign Immunity — 6 Months
Claims against Pennsylvania state agencies require notice within 6 months of injury under The Political Subdivision Tort Claims Act applies similar rules for local entities. Damage caps apply ($250K per plaintiff for Commonwealth claims; $500K per occurrence for local). PennDOT and SEPTA have their own notice requirements.
