Car Accident Lawyer in Pike County, PA

Three Board Certified Trial Attorneys. One Office in Milford. No Upfront Fees.

Abrahamsen, Conaboy & Abrahamsen P.C. maintains a physical office in Milford, the Pike County seat, and has handled car accident cases throughout this region since 1982. All three of our attorneys hold the Board Certified Civil Trial Advocate designation from the National Board of Trial Advocacy. It is a credential recognizing superior knowledge and skill in civil trial practice. Across more than 24,000 cases and four decades in Northeastern Pennsylvania, we’ve built a record that includes seven-figure recoveries for seriously injured clients.

Our firm operates on a simple principle: every client speaks directly with an attorney from the first call through resolution. No case managers. No hand-offs. Free consultations are available in person or virtually, so injured Pike County residents can get real legal guidance without leaving home or the hospital. We handle car accident cases on a contingency basis, so no upfront fees are required.

A Track Record That Speaks for Itself

ACA Law is a family-based firm, and that identity shapes how we handle every case. Chip Abrahamsen brings more than 20 years of practice to car accident matters, and each of our three attorneys has been selected to Pennsylvania Super Lawyers. It is a designation limited to no more than 5% of attorneys in the state. Our 95% success rate reflects what that combination of credentials and commitment produces. Past results depend on the facts and circumstances of each individual case, but our record includes:

• $1.2 million settlement in a commercial trucking accident
• $146,500 combined settlement for a mother and son injured in a rear-end collision
• $120,000 settlement for a client struck by a vehicle
• $102,500 settlement for a client injured in a motor vehicle accident

Our firm’s size works in your favor. You get the individualized attention of a practice that knows your name, paired with the trial-level resources to take serious cases as far as they need to go.

Car Accident Cases We Handle in Pike County

• Hit-and-run crashes that may require pursuing compensation through uninsured motorist coverage

What to Do After a Car Accident in Pike County

The steps you take in the days following a crash directly affect both your health and the strength of your claim. Call 911 and get medical attention even when injuries seem minor. Conditions like whiplash, concussions, and soft tissue damage often don’t surface right away. An official police report is foundational to any insurance or legal claim, so make sure law enforcement responds to the scene.

At the scene, collect names, contact information, and insurance details from all involved drivers. Photograph vehicle damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Notify your insurer that the accident occurred, but don’t give recorded statements or sign documents before speaking with an attorney. Keep every record you accumulate: medical bills, treatment summaries, time-off documentation from your employer, and all correspondence from insurers.

Pennsylvania’s two-year statute of limitations means waiting too long can permanently close the door on filing a lawsuit. Once ACA Law is retained, we handle all communications with insurance companies. This removes that burden from you and protects your claim from the start.

Compensation Available to Pike County Accident Victims
