If you’ve been injured in a car accident and you’re worried about the paychecks you’ve missed because of not being able to work, contact us right away for a no obligation, free legal evaluation.
How Lost Wages Insurance Coverage Works in Pennsylvania
There are two ways to recover lost wages from your car accident in Pennsylvania:
Lost Wages Coverage in Your Insurance Plan
If you have lost wages coverage included in your car insurance policy, then you collect the money you lost from your insurance company.
Pennsylvania car insurance pays 80% of your gross wages up to the amount you select in your coverage. You also won’t get paid for the first five days you miss of work. That’s something your attorney will try to get from the person at fault for the accident or his or her insurance company, as well as the remaining 20% of your missed gross wages.
Also, once you reach the maximum amount of your lost wages coverage, you’ll no longer receive payments. That is another part of the lost wages our attorneys will fight to get for you.
No Insurance Coverage for Lost Wages
If you don’t have lost wages coverage in your car insurance policy, you won’t receive any money from your insurance company for time out of work. When you hire us to represent you, we add lost wages as a form of compensation you deserve to receive.
