Experienced Personal Injury Attorneys Serving Dallas, PA
Dallas sits at the heart of the Back Mountain region, where Route 309 carries heavy traffic between the Wyoming Valley and communities to the north. Winding rural roads, steep grades, and seasonal weather create driving hazards that cause serious accidents year-round. When a negligent driver causes a collision on Route 309, at the Dallas intersection, or on the rural roads surrounding town, the insurance company will move quickly to minimize what they pay you.
Our Dallas personal injury lawyers move faster. We secure evidence from the crash scene, obtain police reports, coordinate with medical providers to document your injuries, and open communication with every relevant insurance carrier. By the time we present a demand, we have built a case that reflects the true cost of your injury — medical bills, lost income, ongoing treatment needs, and the pain and disruption to your daily life.
Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Dallas
Car Accidents
Route 309 collisions, Back Mountain intersection crashes, and weather-related accidents on rural roads — we investigate fault, gather evidence, and fight insurance companies that try to undervalue your injuries and losses.
Truck Accidents
Commercial trucks navigating the steep grades and curves of Route 309 near Dallas pose serious risks. We obtain electronic logging data, review maintenance records, and pursue claims against trucking companies and their insurers.
Motorcycle Accidents
The scenic roads of the Back Mountain attract motorcyclists, but inattentive drivers and poor road surfaces cause devastating crashes. We counter insurance bias against riders with physical evidence and accident reconstruction.
Slip & Fall
Unsalted parking lots at Dallas shopping centers, wet floors inside stores, and poorly maintained sidewalks create fall hazards. We prove the property owner failed to address the dangerous condition that caused your injury.
Medical Malpractice
Dallas residents who receive substandard care at local clinics or regional hospitals deserve accountability. We work with medical experts to prove misdiagnosis, surgical errors, and treatment failures that caused preventable harm.
Wrongful Death
When a fatal accident on a Back Mountain road or a preventable incident takes a Dallas resident's life, we help families pursue wrongful death claims for lost income, funeral costs, and the devastation of their loss.

Back Mountain Road Accidents: Unique Challenges, Proven Results
Accidents on Back Mountain roads present challenges that urban crashes do not. Winding curves with limited sightlines, steep grades that cause brake failures, seasonal ice and fog, and a mix of farm equipment, commercial trucks, and passenger vehicles create a complex liability picture. Insurance companies exploit this complexity by arguing weather or road conditions — rather than driver negligence — caused the accident.
Our attorneys investigate Back Mountain accidents thoroughly. We obtain weather data, inspect road conditions, review PennDOT maintenance records, and use accident reconstruction experts when needed. We have proven in case after case that negligent drivers — not road conditions — are the primary cause of crashes in the Dallas area.
"A driver crossed the center line on Route 309 near Dallas and hit me head-on. I had two broken legs and a shattered wrist. The other driver's insurance company blamed road conditions and offered barely enough to cover my ER bill. PA Attorney Source brought in an accident reconstructionist who proved the driver was speeding. They settled my case for an amount that covered all my surgeries, rehab, and a year of lost wages."

Pennsylvania Injury Laws That Affect Your Dallas Case
Two-Year Statute of Limitations
Pennsylvania law requires personal injury lawsuits to be filed within two years of the injury date. Missing this deadline bars your claim permanently.
Modified Comparative Negligence
Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are more than 51% responsible, you cannot recover damages at all under Pennsylvania's modified rule.
Choice No-Fault Auto Insurance
Pennsylvania drivers choose between "full tort" and "limited tort" coverage, which determines when you can sue for pain and suffering after a car accident.
No Cap on Compensatory Damages
Pennsylvania does not cap compensatory damages in most personal injury cases, though claims against government entities have special limitations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Cases in Dallas
Call 911 immediately and request medical attention even if you feel fine — adrenaline can mask injuries. Move to safety if possible, then document the scene with photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Exchange insurance information with other drivers and get witness contact details. Do not admit fault or give recorded statements to any insurance company before consulting an attorney.
When you purchased your auto insurance, you chose either full tort or limited tort coverage. Full tort preserves your right to sue for pain and suffering after any accident. Limited tort restricts that right unless you suffered a serious injury as defined by Pennsylvania law — permanent impairment, disfigurement, or loss of bodily function. Our attorneys review your policy and advise you on the best approach for your case.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, future medical treatment, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and property damage. In cases involving drunk or reckless drivers, punitive damages may also be available. We evaluate every category of damages to ensure we demand the full value of your claim.
Simpler cases with clear liability and moderate injuries may settle in three to six months. Cases involving disputed fault, severe injuries, or multiple parties can take one to two years or more, especially if they go to trial. Our attorneys work to resolve your case as efficiently as possible while refusing to accept a settlement that undervalues your injuries.
Do not speak with them. Insurance adjusters are trained to get you to say things that can be used to deny or reduce your claim. They may ask for recorded statements, request broad medical record releases, or make a quick lowball settlement offer. Refer all calls to your attorney. We handle every interaction with insurance companies so you cannot be taken advantage of.
