Technically known as a tort claim, a personal injury claim asks for compensation for losses suffered as a result of the negligence or intentional act of another. At Johnston & Johnston  in Kingston, Pennsylvania, our personal lawyers assist victims of accidental injuries or assaults in recovering the damages they and their families need to rebuild their lives.

Do you have a legitimate personal injury claim?

Not every auto accident entitles the victim to a personal injury claim. Every assault is wrongful, but in most cases of assault it is difficult to identify available sources of compensation. A fatal accident may or may not entitle survivors to a wrongful death claim.

If you have suffered the trauma of an accidental injury or the loss of a loved one, you may be getting advice from friends and pressure from insurance adjustors. Yet you and your family are dealing with medical treatments, mounting bills, and grief. It is important you get a sound legal opinion before making a decision on how to proceed. Please contact our Kingston office if you would like to make arrangements for a free consultation and case evaluation. Our lawyers  decide whether to take a case based on its merits, not on the size of the potential settlement.

In a personal injury case our legal fees are contingent on your recovery.

We are aware that you are overwhelmed by financial worries. Not only are our fees contingent on your recovery of a settlement or award for damages in your case, but we will refer you to resources that may be able to help you manage your finances during this difficult period.

A fair settlement should be based on quantitative analysis of the impact of your accident.

Our lawyers have the experience and the resources to fully analyze the projected economic impact of an accident injury over the course of the victim's life. Working with medical, occupational, and economic experts they will prepare and present a compelling argument to an insurance negotiator, jury, arbitrator, or judge regarding the economic cost, pain, and suffering that determine the size of the settlement or verdict.
