We handle the workers' comp claim directly at Cardamone Law. Our respected Personal Injury colleagues handle the lawsuit against the at-fault driver. You get both recoveries.

Yes. If you were working when the crash happened and someone else was at fault, Pennsylvania law generally lets you collect workers' compensation through your employer and pursue a separate third-party claim against the at-fault party. Together they recover far more than workers' comp alone.
No. Pennsylvania workers' compensation only covers medical bills and roughly two-thirds of lost wages. Pain and suffering can only be recovered through a third-party personal injury claim against the at-fault party.
