When you are hurt in an accident in Bucks County, the decisions you make in the days that follow can determine everything about your recovery — financially and physically. Pennsylvania’s two-year statute of limitations gives you limited time to file a personal injury claim, and the evidence needed to prove negligence starts disappearing the moment the accident happens. Every day without legal representation is a day the insurance company is working to limit what they pay you.
At Lerner, Steinberg and Associates, we have represented injured residents of Bucks County for more than 34 years from our office in Feasterville-Trevose. We handle car accidents on Route 1 and US-202, slip and falls in shopping centers from Levittown to Doylestown, workplace injuries across the county’s manufacturing and healthcare sectors, and every other personal injury claim that arises when someone else’s negligence changes your life. You focus on recovery. We’ll handle the rest.

Proving a personal injury claim in Pennsylvania requires establishing four elements: the other party owed you a duty of care, they breached that duty, the breach caused your injury, and you suffered measurable damages. Our attorneys build that case from the first call — gathering accident reports, preserving surveillance footage, retaining accident reconstruction specialists, and documenting every financial loss tied to the injury.
We fight to recover compensation for all categories of loss Pennsylvania law allows:
We prepare every case as if it will go to trial. That preparation is what gives us leverage to negotiate maximum settlements before a verdict is ever needed.
Bucks County residents are injured in every type of accident covered by Pennsylvania personal injury law. These are the case types we handle most frequently for clients across Newtown, Langhorne, Bristol, Doylestown, Levittown, and the surrounding communities:
Bucks County roadways — including Route 1, US-202, the Pennsylvania Turnpike interchange at Bristol, and the I-95 corridor through Lower Bucks — see some of the highest accident volumes in southeastern Pennsylvania. We represent victims of all motor vehicle accidents:
If the other driver was at fault, their insurance company is already building a file to minimize your claim. We counter that from day one.
Property owners in Bucks County — including retail centers, restaurants, apartment complexes, and employers — have a legal duty to maintain reasonably safe conditions for visitors and tenants. When they fail and someone is hurt, they can be held liable. We represent clients injured in:
Premises liability cases require prompt action to document the hazard before it is repaired and evidence disappears.
Our personal injury practice in Bucks County also covers cases that fall outside the standard accident categories:
Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of injury. According to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation crash statistics, Bucks County records thousands of reportable crashes each year. Acting quickly preserves evidence and protects your right to full compensation.
Our office in Feasterville-Trevose has been serving Bucks County injury victims since the firm was founded more than 34 years ago. Mike Lerner and Ben Steinberg handle cases personally — you work directly with the attorneys, not a rotating staff of paralegals. We know the local courts, the insurance defense firms active in this market, and the judges who decide contested cases in Bucks County Court of Common Pleas. That local familiarity translates into a concrete advantage when negotiating settlements and trying cases.
Unlike large law firms where you’re just a case number, we provide personalized attention to every client. You’ll work directly with our attorneys, not just paralegals or case managers. We take the time to understand your unique situation and develop a strategy tailored to your specific needs.
We handle all personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront, and we only collect a fee if we secure compensation for you. We’re confident in our ability to win your case.
Insurance companies maintain full-time defense teams and adjusters whose only job is to close claims for as little as possible. We know every tactic they use because we have been litigating against them in Bucks County for decades. When negotiations stall, we file suit. When insurers refuse reasonable offers, we try cases. Our reputation for following through is why our clients consistently receive more than the initial offers on their claims.
Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident or injury. If you miss this deadline, your claim is permanently barred regardless of how strong the evidence is. Some exceptions apply for minors and for injuries that were not immediately discoverable, but the safest course is to contact an attorney as soon as possible after the accident.
The value of a personal injury claim depends on the severity of the injury, the cost of medical treatment, the impact on your ability to work, and the extent of pain, suffering, and permanent disability. There is no formula that applies to every case. The most accurate valuation comes from reviewing the specific medical records, lost wage documentation, and liability evidence in your particular claim.
Most personal injury cases in Pennsylvania settle before trial. However, cases only settle for fair value when the injured party has an attorney who is genuinely prepared to take the case to court. Insurance companies track which law firms litigate and which ones do not. Firms with a reputation for trying cases receive better pre-trial offers than those known for accepting whatever the insurer proposes.
We handle all personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning there is no fee unless we recover compensation for you. You pay nothing upfront, and we advance the costs of investigation, expert witnesses, and litigation. Our fee is a percentage of the recovery, agreed upon in writing before we begin. If we do not recover, you owe us nothing.
Call 911 and get medical attention, even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene with photos if you are able. Get the contact and insurance information of everyone involved. Do not give a recorded statement to any insurance company before speaking with an attorney. Report the accident to your own insurance company but keep the conversation factual and brief. Contact a personal injury attorney as soon as possible so evidence can be preserved.
