How Our Personal Injury Attorneys in Bensalem Will Help You
Our Bensalem personal injury attorneys can help victims of accidents pursue compensation from the parties who should be held legally responsible. Parties that may be held liable for an accident can range from individuals to small businesses to entire corporations — or a combination of these.
Your attorney will walk with you through the entire legal process. They can advise you about what legal avenues are available and assist you in pursuing the best option for your situation.
If you’ve suffered an injury and are unsure of your next step, we can help determine your best path forward.
What Damages Can I Recover in A Personal Injury Case?
In a personal injury case, there are two categories of damages that the court may award: compensatory and punitive.
- Compensatory damages include current medical costs, future medical costs, lost earnings, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, mental anguish, disfigurement, and dismemberment.
- Punitive damages are typically in play when an offending party has consciously acted in a manner that might harm another person, such as failing to include a warning with medication or distracted driving.
Our Personal Injury Settlements
- $285,000 recovered for a client injured as a result of the at fault driver running a red light and causing a t-bone collision.
- $230,000 recovered for a client involved in a head on collision due to the at fault driver running a stop sign.
- $416,250 recovered for a client injured in a rear-end car crash that resulted in a concussion, traumatic brain injury and multiple neck disc herniations.

When Should I Contact a Lawyer?
What you do in the time period directly after you’ve suffered a personal injury is important when it comes to any future compensation you might win.
While the offending party’s insurance company may offer you a quick settlement, it isn’t in your best interests to accept any compensation before you have sought legal advice. The insurance company is most certainly underestimating your rightful compensation to avoid having to pay you the amount you’re owed.
If you have sustained a personal injury through no fault of your own, whether you were at work, at home, or in public, you should contact a Bensalem personal injury lawyer immediately.
At Cordisco & Saile, we offer a free consultation to help you determine how to proceed with your case and who might be liable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I still have a case if I have fully recovered from my injuries?
Perhaps you were injured in an accident where you were not at fault but couldn’t pursue compensation until after you had recovered from your injuries. Thankfully, there is a clear legal precedent for this exact scenario.
In every state, there’s a statute of limitations dictating the amount of time that can pass between your injury and when you are no longer able to pursue compensation.
The specific amount of time varies from state to state and can be dependent on factors such as the seriousness of the injury. However, there is no law in any state against pursuing a settlement after you have recovered from your injuries.
In the state of Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is two years. This means that under Pennsylvania state law, you have two years from the date of the incident that caused the injury to pursue a claim.
How do I pay my medical bills until I get my settlement?
Many victims have health insurance, which can help cover medical costs until they receive a settlement. However, there are still co-pays and premiums to consider, as well as costs that might not fall under your provider’s protection.
In cases such as these, there are still options. You can take out a personal loan to cover the costs and then pay it off once the court awards your settlement. There are also auto insurance companies that sell gap insurance, which covers what other insurance providers may not.
Figuring out your next steps when your bills are piling up can be incredibly stressful. Experienced personal injury attorneys can offer trusted guidance in cases such as these to put your mind at ease.
What is the cost of a personal injury attorney?
Personal injury attorneys typically work on a contingency-fee basis — also referred to as “no recovery, no fee.” This means that personal injury attorneys do not require you to pay a flat fee for their services, and if they lose your case, you will not be required to pay them anything.
Instead, if they win your case, your lawyer’s fees will be deducted from your final personal injury settlement.
