Just after 3 am on Sunday, March 18, a car accident occurred between two vehicles in Southwest Philadelphia at Passyunk Avenue and 26th Street. According to police, a car didn’t stop when it came off of I-76 and slammed into a minivan. The minivan was carrying five individuals in it. There were five people reported injured in the accident. Three people were taken to Hahnemann Hospital and the other two injured people were taken to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.
During the nor'easter that came through on Wednesday, the roads were an especially dangerous place to be. The NJ governor had urged people to avoid travel as the roads became more dangerous and sadly one motorist lost his life in a weather-related car accident that occurred on Wednesday evening. On Interstate 78 in Hunterdon County, a vehicle collided with a bus and did not survive the accident. There are no other details currently given regarding this accident.
A car accident occurred on Tuesday night in Horsham that resulted in the death of two people. The crash occurred around 6:30 pm on Easton Road and West Moreland Avenue. It was a multi-vehicle accident and the identities of the deceased have not been released to the public. The weather, unfortunately, played a role in this accident. Witnesses reported seeing a car slid on ice and spin out of control into oncoming traffic. The vehicle then hit another vehicle head-on.
On Wednesday morning around 6:30 am two large trucks, one a car carrier, crashed into one another while driving westbound on the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Lancaster County. Thankfully, there were no injuries reported as a result of this accident but it did cause the roads to be closed for hours for clean up. Many of the cars that were being carried by one of the trucks were scattered across the highway or smashed.
“I have been working since I was 14. I have probably held at least two dozen different jobs and I’ve seen people injured and hurt. One of the reasons I got involved with disability law is that I have a very good family friend who has been disabled his entire life, and I’ve seen how he’s struggled in order to keep working and try to work. When I was presented with the opportunity to get involved with what’s called “disability law,” I was really thrilled to be able to not only practice being an attorney, but helping other people who really need to know things about what their choices are, what they can do, and what their future may hold.
I am originally from Maple Glen, PA and is a life-long Eagles fan.
I have focused on helping individuals with their workers’ compensation, social security disability and long-term disability claims, as well as obtaining financial security for individuals who have had accidents.
As part of helping workers’ and their families, I have also been active in teaching continuing legal education courses to other attorneys, provide free seminars and webinars to the public on how to protect their rights, and I am active in various organizations such as the National Organization of Social Security Claims Representatives, the Injured Workers’ Bar Association and the Workers’ Injury Law & Advocacy Group.”
