About Alva & Shuttleworth LLC
Personal Injury Law firm in Philadelphia
When a person, a company or any other entity injures another person with an irresponsible action or by causing an accident, the victim will suffer financial loss. They could have property damage, hospital and other medical bills, and lost wages stemming from the incident. Additionally, they may have suffered pain, humiliation and a host of other negative experiences, due to the poor decisions of this other person.
In Pennsylvania, we allow such victims to seek compensation for how they were injured from the responsible party in our courts system. These actions are called "tort" actions.
However, recovering is often a fight. You'll probably be up against a big insurance company with a multi-million dollar legal budget, looking to get out of the situation by paying you as little as possible or nothing at all.
