Understanding Pennsylvania’s Car Accident Laws

Pennsylvania operates as a “choice no-fault” state. When you register your vehicle, you choose between “full tort” (right to sue for all damages) and “limited tort” (restricted to serious injuries). Your selection significantly impacts your ability to recover compensation. PA uses a modified comparative fault system — you can recover as long as you are less than 51% at fault.

After a car accident in Montour County, you may recover medical expenses, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, property damage, and in some cases punitive damages.
