Personal Injury Attorneys in Western Maryland
When an accident or someone else's negligence causes injury, the physical, emotional, and financial consequences can be devastating. At Phillips & Allen P.A., our personal injury attorneys fight aggressively to secure the compensation you deserve for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. We handle cases throughout Garrett County, Allegany County, and Western Maryland.
Fighting for Full and Fair Compensation
Insurance companies are not on your side. Their goal is to minimize what they pay, often offering lowball settlements that do not cover the true cost of your injuries. Our personal injury attorneys negotiate aggressively with insurers and are fully prepared to take your case to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached. Attorney Arnold F. Phillips's reputation as a fierce litigator means insurance companies take our cases seriously.
Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle
Western Maryland's winding mountain roads, outdoor recreational activities, and seasonal tourism create unique injury risks. We handle motor vehicle accidents on Route 219 and I-68, motorcycle accidents on mountain roads, truck accidents involving commercial vehicles passing through the region, slip and fall injuries at Deep Creek Lake resorts and businesses, and workplace injuries across various industries.
Understanding Maryland Personal Injury Law
Maryland follows the doctrine of contributory negligence, which means if you are found to be even partially at fault for your injury, you may be barred from recovering compensation. This makes having an experienced attorney critical. We build airtight cases that establish the other party's full liability while protecting you from unfair blame. Maryland also has a three-year statute of limitations for most personal injury claims.
