Lerner Steinberg & Associates has been located in Feasterville-Trevose for over 34 years — not a satellite office, not a shared address. Our office on Street Road sits in the heart of Bucks County, minutes from the businesses, healthcare facilities, distribution centers, and construction sites along the Route 1 and I-95 corridors where many of our clients work. When you are injured on the job, you need an attorney who already knows the local employers, the insurance companies they use, and the workers’ compensation judges who handle cases from this region.
Pennsylvania workers’ compensation law requires your employer’s insurer to cover your medical treatment and replace a portion of your lost wages when you are hurt at work — regardless of fault. But insurance companies do not voluntarily pay everything you are owed. At Lerner Steinberg & Associates, we have spent over three decades making sure injured workers in Feasterville-Trevose and throughout Bucks County receive every dollar they are entitled to under the law.

When you’ve been injured at work in Feasterville-Trevose or anywhere in Bucks County, your employer’s insurance company begins protecting their interests the moment they learn of your injury. Our attorneys level the playing field by:
Feasterville-Trevose sits at the intersection of some of Bucks County’s busiest work corridors. Our clients come from warehouses and distribution centers along Route 1 and I-95, construction sites throughout the Route 1 corridor and newer residential developments across Lower Bucks, healthcare facilities including St. Mary Medical Center and surrounding clinics, manufacturing and light industrial facilities in Bensalem and Bristol Township, and retail and service businesses throughout the region.

Injured workers in Feasterville-Trevose and throughout Bucks County may be entitled to several types of benefits:
These benefits cover all reasonable and necessary medical treatment related to your work injury, including doctor visits, hospital stays, surgeries, prescription medications, physical therapy, medical equipment, and specialist care. For the first 90 days after reporting your injury, your employer may require you to treat with doctors from their designated provider list. After 90 days you can choose your own physician. Our attorneys ensure you receive the full scope of medical treatment you need and are not prematurely cut off by the insurer’s IME doctors.
If your work injury in Feasterville-Trevose or Bucks County prevents you from working, you are entitled to wage loss benefits calculated at approximately two-thirds of your average weekly wage before the injury — including overtime and bonuses. The 2026 maximum weekly compensation rate in Pennsylvania is $1,394 per week.
If a worker dies due to a work-related injury or illness in Feasterville-Trevose or anywhere in Bucks County, surviving dependents may receive weekly death benefits and burial expenses up to $3,000. Death benefits are typically paid at the same rate as the worker’s wage loss benefits and continue for eligible dependents until remarriage or until dependent children reach majority age.
Feasterville-Trevose workers face the same obstacles as injured workers everywhere in Bucks County — but the scale of employers along the Route 1 and I-95 corridor means insurance carriers are well-organized and aggressive in defending claims. Common challenges our clients encounter include:
Navigating the workers’ compensation system can be complicated, especially when you are dealing with an injury. Here is an overview of the process for Feasterville-Trevose and Bucks County workers:
In Pennsylvania, you must report your work injury to your employer within 120 days. Report it in writing within 21 days and your benefits are retroactive to the date of injury — wait longer and you only collect from the date you reported. Most Feasterville-Trevose employers have an HR department or supervisor who handles injury reports. Do not rely on a verbal report alone — follow up in writing immediately.
After your employer receives notice, they must file a First Report of Injury with their insurance carrier. The insurer then has 21 days from the date they were notified to accept, deny, or temporarily accept your claim while they continue investigating for up to an additional 90 days. During any temporary acceptance period you receive benefits — the insurer can still deny after the 90-day window, which is why having our attorneys involved from the start is critical.
Your claim may be accepted (benefits begin), denied (you have the right to file a Claim Petition), or temporarily accepted while the insurer investigates. Even a temporary acceptance is not a guarantee — the insurer can still deny after 90 days. Our Feasterville-Trevose attorneys protect your rights at every stage of this process so you are not caught off guard by a sudden change in benefit status.
If your claim is denied or your benefits are terminated, you can file a Claim Petition, Review Petition, Reinstatement Petition, or Penalty Petition with the Pennsylvania Bureau of Workers’ Compensation. You have three years from the date of injury to file a Claim Petition. These petitions are heard by a workers’ compensation judge at the southeastern district offices serving Bucks County, with further appeals to the Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board and higher courts. Our hearings attorneys handle every level of the appeals process.
