Northeast Philadelphia is the backbone of the city's workforce. From the industrial parks along Roosevelt Boulevard to the warehouses near the airport, thousands of hardworking people drive for a living or commute to demanding jobs every day.
When you're injured in a car accident while working - whether you're a delivery driver on Bustleton Avenue, a tradesperson heading to a job site, or a warehouse worker commuting on I-95 - you deserve an attorney who understands your situation.
Amazon, FedEx, UPS facilities along the Boulevard and near PHL Airport. Hit by forklifts, trucks, or in parking lot accidents.

We handle work accident cases on the most dangerous roads in the region:
Many Northeast Philly workers are union members - IBEW, Teamsters, Laborers, Operating Engineers, Building Trades. We understand how workers' comp interacts with your union benefits and health coverage.
A work car accident doesn't just affect your paycheck - it affects your pension contributions, your health fund, your annuity. We make sure ALL your losses are accounted for.
When you're hurt in a car accident while working, you may have two separate claims:
Covers your medical bills and lost wages regardless of fault. You get benefits even if the accident was your mistake. No need to prove anyone was negligent.
If another driver caused the accident, you can sue them for pain and suffering, full lost wages, and other damages that workers' comp doesn't cover.
You get two specialists, not one jack-of-all-trades. We focus exclusively on your workers' comp claim while our trusted Personal Injury colleagues focus on the third-party case. Two experts working together to maximize your total recovery.
We've helped workers from companies throughout the Northeast, including:
Don't wait to get the benefits you deserve. Medical bills pile up fast. Call us today for a free consultation.
Get Your Free Case ReviewIf you were hurt in a vehicle crash while working in Northeast Philadelphia, you may be entitled to pursue two separate claims at the same time. Understanding both is the difference between recovering only part of your losses and recovering everything you are owed.
Because you were injured in the course of your job, your employer's workers' compensation insurance should cover 100% of your reasonable and necessary medical treatment and roughly two-thirds of your lost wages while you recover. Workers' comp is "no-fault," so it applies even if the crash was partly your fault. What it does not pay for is pain and suffering or the remaining third of your wages.
If another driver caused your Northeast Philadelphia crash, you can also bring a personal injury claim against that at-fault driver. This is where pain and suffering, full wage loss, and other damages are recovered. Workers' comp does not allow these damages, which is why pursuing the third-party case is so important.
How we work: Attorney Michael Cardamone is a Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist who handles your comp claim directly, and we coordinate with our heavyweight Personal Injury colleagues on the third-party case so the two claims work together to maximize your total recovery.
Yes. If you were working when the crash happened in Northeast Philadelphia and another driver was at fault, Pennsylvania law generally lets you collect workers' compensation through your employer and file a separate third-party claim against the at-fault driver. The two claims together recover far more than workers' comp alone.
You can still receive workers' compensation, because it is a no-fault system. Your right to comp benefits does not depend on who caused the accident, so even an at-fault worker injured on the job in Northeast Philadelphia is typically covered for medical bills and wage loss.
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee, which means there is no fee unless we win your case, and your consultation is always free. Call (215) 206-9068 to speak with us today.
