Car Accident Attorney in Bethlehem, PA
There’s nothing quite like that moment right after a car accident. Time slows down. Your heart’s pounding. Maybe there’s broken glass, maybe someone’s yelling, maybe everything’s just eerily quiet. Whether it’s a minor fender-bender on Stefko Boulevard or a major wreck on Route 22, the impact hits more than just your car—it rattles your whole life. And in the days and weeks that follow, you’ve got questions. Tons of them. Am I hurt worse than I think? Should I talk to the other driver’s insurance? Who’s going to pay for this? It’s confusing. It’s frustrating. And honestly? It’s exhausting. At Michael A. Snover ESQ Attorney at Law, we’ve been through this with people in Bethlehem and across the Lehigh Valley. We know how overwhelming it feels because we’ve sat across the table from clients dealing with all of it—medical bills, missed work, persistent pain, and an insurance company that suddenly stops answering the phone. If you’re reading this after a car accident, take a breath. You’re not alone, and there’s help just down the road.

A Local Attorney Who Gets It
Bethlehem isn’t just where we work—it’s where we live. That means we understand how accidents happen around here. Whether it’s icy roads in January, traffic backups after Musikfest, or that weird merge near the Hill-to-Hill Bridge, we’ve seen it. Local knowledge goes a long way in car accident cases. We know the roads, we know the insurance tactics common in this area, and we know the courtrooms if your case comes to that. We’re not a huge out-of-town law firm treating you like a number—we’re neighbors. And we treat you that way.

The Most Common Types of Car Accidents We Handle
Every crash is different, but here are a few of the situations we see most often: Rear-end collisions at traffic lights or stop signs; T-bone crashes at busy intersections like Easton Ave and Stefko Blvd; Sideswipes during lane changes on Route 22 or I-78; Head-on collisions on backroads or rural highways; Accidents involving distracted drivers (yes, texting and driving is still a huge problem); DUI-related crashes; Hit-and-run accidents; Multi-vehicle pileups—especially during bad weather. No matter what kind of crash you were in, if you were injured and someone else was at fault, we’ll walk you through your rights and help you fight for fair compensation.

What Should You Do After a Car Accident in Bethlehem?
We get this question a lot—especially when someone calls a few days after an accident and isn’t sure what to do next. Here’s a quick rundown: Get medical attention. Even if you feel “okay,” some injuries take time to show up. Document everything. Photos, names, insurance info, witness contacts—it all helps. Don’t admit fault. Even saying “I’m sorry” can be used against you. Notify your insurance. But be cautious about giving recorded statements. Talk to a car accident attorney. Even if you’re unsure about filing a claim, a free consultation can clear up your options. We’re here to walk you through it. No pressure, no legalese. Just clear advice from someone who’s handled cases like yours before.
How Much Is Your Car Accident Case Worth?
That’s the million-dollar question, right? And the truth is, it really depends. We’ll look at: The severity of your injuries; Your medical expenses (past and future); Lost wages or earning potential; Pain and suffering; Property damage; The other driver’s insurance coverage; And whether any laws were broken (like DUI or reckless driving). Some cases settle for a few thousand dollars. Others are worth significantly more. Our job is to make sure the insurance company doesn’t shortchange you. You only get one shot at this, and once you accept a settlement, that’s it—you can’t go back later if more bills show up.

We Don’t Get Paid Unless You Win
Seriously. There’s no upfront cost to work with us. We handle car accident cases on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing. That way, you can focus on healing, and we’ll handle the legal fight.
What Sets Us Apart?
Let’s face it—there are a lot of car accident attorneys out there. Billboards, bus ads, TV commercials… it’s overwhelming. So what makes us different? We’re not a “settlement mill.” Some firms are all about fast settlements. We’re not. We’ll take the time to understand you and your unique case. We keep things human. You’ll work directly with our team—not a faceless office of case managers. We know Bethlehem. That means we know the roads, the courts, and how to get things done locally. We don’t treat you like a case number. We’ll remember your name, call you back, and make sure you’re never left in the dark.

When Should You Contact a Car Accident Lawyer?
As soon as possible. The sooner we can start gathering evidence and protecting your rights, the better. In Pennsylvania, you typically have two years to file a personal injury claim after a car accident, but waiting too long can make your case harder to prove. Even if you’re not ready to file a claim, we can help you understand your situation and answer your questions. Sometimes just talking things out with someone who knows the system makes a world of difference.

Let’s Get You Back on the Road
Whether your accident happened yesterday or last month, we’re here to help you pick up the pieces. This isn’t about lawsuits and drama—it’s about you getting the support you need to move forward. We’ll handle the legal stuff, so you can focus on healing, family, work, and getting your life back.

A History of Success
I just signed myself up with attorney Snover and had previously hired a different attorney but wasn’t satisfied with him. I then went to attorney Snover and he took my car accident case and is now helping me with my injury settlement. He is extremely knowledgeable at what he does, takes the time to talk with you and to fully understand your case. I highly recommend this place for your attorney needs.
