experienced legal counsel protecting your interests. At HGSK Injury Lawyers, we know how to investigate accidents, gather evidence, and push back against unfair blame-shifting tactics. Even if you think you may be partly at fault, don’t assume you have no case—you may still be entitled to significant compensation. Deadlines, Fees, and Timelines: What Should I Realistically Expect? In Pennsylvania, the law gives you two years from the date of an automobile accident to either settle your claim or file a lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations, and missing that deadline can bar your right to recover entirely. The overall timeline of your case often depends on the length and nature of your medical treatment. The attorneys at HGSK Injury Lawyers don’t rush to settle while you’re still healing—we want to be sure every injury, medical bill, and future treatment need is fully documented and included in your claim. If your case does not resolve within two years, our firm will file a lawsuit to preserve your rights. Once in litigation, cases can sometimes take additional time depending on the court’s schedule, discovery, and the insurance company’s willingness to negotiate. Throughout this process, HGSK’s attorneys work tirelessly to keep your case moving forward and to maximize your recovery. As for fees, HGSK Injury Lawyers works on a contingency-fee basis—meaning you pay nothing unless we recover money for you. Our fee comes as a percentage of the settlement or verdict, so our success is directly tied to yours. From start to finish, our goal is simple: to handle the legal burden so you can focus on healing.
