Legal Support For Injured Workers And Policyholders In Erie County

Erie County’s economy blends health care, higher education, manufacturing, logistics and tourism. Workers in hospitals, plants, warehouses, schools and local businesses keep the region moving—but they also face a real risk of job-related injuries and long-term health problems.

At the same time, Erie County residents depend on insurance to protect their homes, vehicles, health and income. When an insurance company refuses to honor a valid claim, the financial fallout can be devastating.

AlpernSchubert, P.C., based in the Pittsburgh area, represents injured people and policyholders throughout Western Pennsylvania—including Erie County—in workers’ compensation, bad faith insurance, personal injury and disability matters. For help with an Erie County injury or insurance dispute, call 412-556-2326 for a free consultation.

Erie County Workers’ Compensation Representation

From heavy manufacturing and industrial jobs around the city of Erie to hospital, retail and office work throughout the county, employees can suffer:

• Acute injuries from falls, machine accidents or vehicle crashes
• Repetitive-stress injuries from lifting, bending or overhead work
• Occupational illnesses from chemical exposure or unsafe conditions

Pennsylvania workers’ compensation can provide medical treatment and partial wage replacement if your injury or illness is work-related and properly reported. Yet many workers face challenges such as:

• Denied claims
• Disputes over medical treatment or work restrictions
• Attempts to force an early return to work
• Efforts to terminate or cut off benefits

AlpernSchubert, P.C., helps Erie County employees understand their rights, file or appeal claims, and present persuasive medical and vocational evidence.

Injured Erie County employees who want more detail about the claim process and their rights can visit our Erie County workers’ compensation page for additional guidance.

Erie County Bad Faith Insurance Claims

Severe lake-effect storms, auto collisions on I-90 and other major routes, and everyday personal emergencies all lead Erie County residents to rely on insurance. When an insurer delays, underpays or denies a legitimate claim, that conduct may amount to bad faith under Pennsylvania law.

Examples of potential bad faith include:

• Ignoring clear evidence that supports your claim
• Failing to conduct a reasonable investigation
• Misrepresenting policy terms or exclusions
• Pressuring you to accept an unfairly low offer
• Unreasonably delaying payment or communication

The attorneys at AlpernSchubert, P.C., have long pursued bad faith insurance claims on behalf of policyholders throughout Western Pennsylvania, including homeowners, drivers, small business owners and people with disability coverage.

We can evaluate your Erie County claim, negotiate firmly with the insurer, and, where warranted, file a bad faith lawsuit seeking all damages allowed by law.
