We represent injured people and families from Washington County. Flaherty Fardo Rogel & Amick has handled injury and malpractice cases since 1997. Our one office is in Sewickley, in Allegheny County, and we serve Washington County clients from there.
For people in Washington, Canonsburg, Peters Township, Cecil, McMurray, Charleroi, Monongahela and the rest of the county, we handle medical malpractice, serious personal injury and wrongful death cases. Our firm has obtained verdicts, settlements and awards for clients in Washington County and in counties across Pennsylvania.
A lawsuit over an injury that happened in Washington County is often filed in:
Court of Common Pleas of Washington County
Twenty-Seventh Judicial District of Pennsylvania
Washington County Courthouse
1 South Main Street, Washington, PA 15301
Pennsylvania’s venue rules decide which county a lawsuit belongs in. In general, a case can be filed in the county where the injury happened (the place where the “cause of action arose”). It may also be filed where an individual defendant can be served, or where a business defendant has its main office or regularly does business. Medical malpractice cases follow the same general venue rules as other cases; the special malpractice venue rule was rescinded effective January 1, 2023. Choosing the right court is one of the first decisions we make with you.
Washington County sits where I-70 and I-79 cross, and much of its traffic moves on those interstates, on Route 19 and on Route 43 (the Mon–Fayette Expressway). Long-haul trucks, highway work zones and interchanges are part of daily driving here.
Truck crash cases often depend on records the trucking company controls, such as driver logs and electronic data. Read our truck accident guide and our car accident guide.
The hospital in the City of Washington is UPMC Washington, at 155 Wilson Avenue. Many patients are also treated in Pittsburgh.
Naming a hospital here is for orientation only. It does not suggest that any hospital or provider did anything wrong. Most care is good care; a malpractice case exists only when care falls below accepted standards and causes harm.

In Pennsylvania, most personal injury, medical malpractice and wrongful death claims must be filed within two years (42 Pa.C.S. § 5524). If a government agency or public employee may be responsible, written notice is generally required within six months (42 Pa.C.S. § 5522). Exceptions can shorten or extend these deadlines, so call us early rather than late.
