Coronavirus Consequences For Personal Injury
Claims
2
The development of the COVID-19 pandemic is
affecting every system within a country. This
includes the legal processes and all currently
ongoing claims. However, every problem has a
solution. If you have an ongoing personal injury
claim, or if you were just about to start the
process but was delayed by the pandemic, speak
with your attorney or consult with the
Philadelphia personal injury attorneys to learn
more about what you should do to keep your case
active. There could be consequences for your
personal injury case. Here is what could happen
to your personal injury claim during the
coronavirus outbreak

Did You Stop Going For Treatments?
As a result of the outbreak, many people are
staying in their homes. This is the only way to
prevent the virus from spreading even faster and
allowing the healthcare facilities to have enough
coverage for current and new patients. If They
would all get infected at the same time, even
though the virus can be treated, there would not
be enough room for everyone as the hospitals
would be overcrowded. On top of that, the doctors
would have to choose who to give medicine to and
who to keep hospitalized as there is only so much
room in every healthcare facility. For those
reasons, staying at home is a positive thing to
do. However, that does not mean that you should
stop taking going for treatments. The only way
for your claim to remain active is if you finish
all your appointed treatments. Once you do, your
attorney will be able to file a claim and proceed
with your personal injury case. If you are in
fear of getting infected, or if your doctor
postponed your treatments because of the current
coronavirus pandemic, be sure to let your
attorney know of any change. It may impact your
personal injury case (both positively and
negatively).

Moving The Dates
Many courthouses will have to delay or push the
hearing dates. Not all cases will be solved
immediately, or at least not until the pandemic
is over. Only the most urgent of cases and
those that were closed to getting closed will
potentially be processed by the court. These
disruptions in the legal system will probably
continue to exist for a while until everything is
back to normal. As a claimant, you should do what
you are told by your attorney, follow your
doctors orders and be patient.

Digital Claims Will Be Processed Faster
All paperless claims will potentially be
processed a lot faster, as all the work can be
done digitally and from ones home. That being
said, if you were about to file a personal injury
claim, or if you are at the very beginning of it,
or even if you filed a claim already, speak with
personal injury attorneys in Philadelphia from
Soloff Zervanos and see if your claim can be
filed digitally or processed in the same way.
Attorneys have the latest technology and will
send you digital forms that you can fill, without
even having to enter their office. But first,
give them a call so that They can determine what
type of claim you want to file and whether or not
you are eligible to file it in the first place.
