"Auto Injury"
Praveen Kumar, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I had the pleasure of working with Sarkis as my attorney for an auto injury case, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome. From the very beginning, Sarkis demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my situation. He guided me through every step of the process, always keeping me informed and ensuring that my best interests were a priority. Sarkis worked diligently to settle my case, and his dedication truly paid off. The settlement exceeded my expectation, and I am grateful for his hard work and persistence. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate attorney who will fight for you, I highly recommend Sarkis. He made a challenging time much easier, and I'm thankful for his support."
"BEST personal injury lawyer!!!"
Cristine, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Unfortunately, this was one of the worst car accidents I have been in. Being a new resident of the state of PA and not knowing the laws, I was terrified of the long road ahead. While I thought the recovery would also be a long road, Sarkis made it extremely easy throughout my entire case. I can't thank you enough for all your hard work, constant communication, positivity, and, most importantly, diligence to ensure success in my case. If you are considering hiring a PI lawyer, please do not think twice. Sarkis is the BEST there is."
"Helped me when no one else would" Nicole, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I was in a bad accident in August of 2022, which was entirely caused by the negligence of the other driver. I spoke with one rude Lawyer in person and spoke with four additional Lawyers on the phone. No one would take my case or help me, even though the accident wasn't my fault, because I had been in additional accidents. One Lawyer said I would be lucky if I received a settlement of $2,000 and that he didn't want to "waste his time with me". I felt discouraged but I didn't give up. I was serendipitously referred to Attorney Sarkis Dramgotchian. I sustained a concussion in the car accident because my car flipped. I could barely speak coherently to Sarkis when we first spoke on the phone. He listened and was patient with me. He took my case because he actually cares. He's a good person, which is rare in this world. Sarkis is realistic and honest. He answers phone calls and text messages. He's polite. He's respectful and keeps you posted every step of the way while he fights for you. I typically do not like people and he's genuinely likable. I highly recommend this Attorney. You will not be disappointed. He was able to successfully advocate for me and I’m confident that he'll be able to do that for you too. I'm sincerely grateful as wells thankful to him because due to this settlement, I'll be able to continue treatments denied by my insurance. I have hope that I can be whole again amidst a terrible experience in life with the means to get better now because someone with the right expertise fought for me, when I couldn't fight for myself. Words cannot express my full gratitude. To anyone reading this after a car accident--don't give us and give Attorney Sarkis a call to review your case."
What Compensation Can You Recover After a Philadelphia Car Accident?
Every case is different, but injured victims in Pennsylvania may be entitled to compensation for:
-
Medical expenses — emergency care, surgery, hospitalization, physical therapy, future treatment
-
Lost wages — income you've already lost and future earning capacity if your injuries are long-term
-
Pain and suffering — physical pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life
-
Property damage — repair or replacement of your vehicle
-
Wrongful death damages — if you lost a family member in the accident
Pennsylvania is a "choice no-fault" state, which means your own insurance may cover initial medical costs — but you may still have the right to sue the at-fault driver for full damages. An attorney can evaluate exactly what you're entitled to.
The steps you take in the hours and days after a crash can make or break your claim. Here's what we tell every client:
1. Seek medical attention immediately — even if you feel fine. Injuries like whiplash and internal trauma often don't show symptoms right away. A medical record created close to the accident is also critical evidence.
2. Call the police and get a report. A police report establishes the official record of what happened. Don't skip this step even for minor collisions.
3. Document everything you can. Photos of the scene, damage, road conditions, and your injuries. Names and contact info of witnesses. Screenshot the weather.
4. Don't speak with the other driver's insurance company. Adjusters are trained to get statements they can use to reduce your payout. You are not required to give one. Refer them to your attorney.
5. Contact a car accident lawyer as soon as possible. Evidence disappears. Witnesses' memories fade. Pennsylvania's statute of limitations gives you two years to file — but the sooner you act, the stronger your case.
Frequently Asked Questions About Philadelphia Car Accident Claims
How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in Pennsylvania?
In most cases, Pennsylvania's statute of limitations gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically means losing your right to compensation entirely — so don't wait.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Pennsylvania follows a "modified comparative negligence" rule. You can still recover compensation as long as you were less than 51% at fault — though your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. An attorney can help you fight back against attempts by insurers to inflate your share of blame.
How much is my car accident case worth?
There's no honest one-size-fits-all answer. The value of your case depends on the severity of your injuries, your medical costs, how much work you've missed, and the insurance coverage available. We offer free consultations specifically to give you a realistic picture of what your case may be worth.
Do I have to go to court?
Most car accident cases settle before trial. However, if the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we are fully prepared to take your case to court and fight for what you deserve.
How much does it cost to hire a Philadelphia car accident lawyer?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis — meaning we only get paid if we recover money for you. There are no hourly fees and no out-of-pocket costs.
What if the other driver didn't have insurance?
You may still have options. Uninsured motorist coverage (UM) on your own policy may cover your damages. We handle uninsured and underinsured motorist claims and can review your policy to identify every available source of recovery.
