Pennsylvania Personal Injury Law Firm

Pennsylvania Personal Injury Law FirmDuring personal injury litigation, the harmed or injured party is often referred to as the “victim,” conveying a sense of powerlessness that we simply refuse to accept at Cohen & Riechelson. Although you may have suffered at the hands of another person or organization, you are not left without recourse. The negligent party may seek to intimidate or overwhelm you, rendering you ineffectual as a means by which to avoid taking responsibility, but you are by no means powerless.

Our seasoned personal injury attorneys have dedicated their careers to thwarting the efforts of these interests, placing the power back in the hands of those who deserve to be compensated for their physical, emotional, and financial losses.
