Legal Question in Personal Injury in Pennsylvania

My mother just got in a car accident. She was completely not at fault, the other guy ran a red light and smashed right into her. She's in a lot of pain right now and I was wondering if she could seek some kind of money for pain and suffering? She does have limited tort, and I know that with that you cannot seek money for something which isn't a serious medical problem , but is there still something that she could get from the insurance or even by pursuing a case in court?

Thank you for your help.

There are exceptions to the Limited Tort Rule. And, you don't know, this soon after the accident, whether your mother has a serious injury. All hope is not lost yet!

You have a Malvern zip code. I live in Malvern, also!

Please call my office on Monday afternoon to discuss whether your mother fits into any of the Limited Tort exceptions. Feel free to visit my website--I've been representing victims of car accidents for more than 32 years! Thank you.
