Honest and Knowledgeable Attorney

I was involved in an accident 2 years ago. Although English is not my native language, Sandra Worthington had done a fantastic job to explain my case to me in an understandable way. When I received a letter from my insurance company stating that they would deny payments to my chiropractor, I was really scared. I talked to my husband, my husband told me to search for a good Personal Injury Attorney on the internet. I was lucky to find Sandra Worthington. I was very impressed by her honesty and knowledge when I met her in her office. Sandra Worthington worked very hard to fight for me. Not only my medical bills have drastically been reduced, but also my compensation has tremendously increased. I would highly recommend Sandra Worthington to anyone.

This section is called "About Me" but it isn't really about me-it's about YOU and what YOU need. If you've come to Avvo you are either beginning your search for a lawyer or you have heard about me and you wanted to check me out. After you've been in a terrible accident the last thing you feel like doing is rooting through lawyer listings to try to guess which is the right one for you. You need to pick the right lawyer, with the most experience, a savagely good track record of settlements and verdicts, AND the compassion to help you through what might be the worst thing that ever happened to you.

You can relax because you are in the right place. We help consumers make great decisions about their legal issues including car accidents, slip and fall injuries and dog bite claims. We don't need multi-million dollar TV advertising campaigns because our happy clients and others we have consulted with (but who didn't actually need an attorney) speak for us.

So, take some time and read the reviews. After all, anyone can say "we are aggressive;" or "no fee if no recovery;" or "we are the best."

We let our friends speak for us. Who are they? Our thousands of past and current clients. And countless attorneys familiar with our work who will vouch for our expertise, knowledge and results.

Give us a call, and do it BEFORE you speak to the insurance company or sign anything. We'll do everything we can to help you and will leave no stone unturned doing it.

Just what our family needed

When our family had been devastated by a vicious dog attack, Sandra steped in and managed all of the medical and insurance paperwork for us. She was exactly what our family needed, kind, professional, and looking out for our best interest.

Dog bite

I have to concur with all the positive reviews posted here. Sandra is not only very competent but persistent which is probably an even better attribute in her profession. I highly recommend her for personal injury issues.

Search court records

I misplaced a court order decree records for the change of my son's first name that Ms. Worthington's former partner had helped me to obtain about 30 years ago. He is now retired, but Ms. Worthington assisted me with proper information and instruction of how to retrieve it without charging me a fee. She is very prompt, friendly and efficient.

Attorney Worthington well worth a call

I called her office late in the day and was going to just leave a message but she picked up and spent a good 25 minutes listening to our situation and providing a calm and reassuring attitude. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a consultation. Very knowledgeable and thorough. If we need an attorney she will first on the list.

Response from Sandra Worthington November 18, 2021

Thank you for saying that! It goes without saying you and your family are very special to me- you know I love dogs and have had many. This is about an irresponsible owner whose failure to properly train and socialize their Rotty led to terrible consequences. I'm so happy to have represented you and hope you will stay in touch!

Excellent representation

Ms. Worthington made this experience very easy for me. She kept in touch with me frequently to inform me of any and all updates in my case. I never had to worry about getting any challenging work done because she was on top of it all. Ms. Worthington ensured I understood every aspect of my case and spoke to me in a way that I could easily decipher and understand. She made me feel very comfortable with making decisions and I felt absolutely no pressure. Ms. Worthington always had my best interest as her top priority and was very successful in getting me what I deserved out of the case. I highly recommend Ms. Worthington for representation. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her.

Fantastic Attorney

Sandra initially responded to a query I had posted on Avvo. She was extremely knowledgeable in regards to my specific injury. She responded with sympathy and took the time to listen and understand where I was coming from and thusly I retained her services. Win, lose or draw I trust her completely to act in my best interest, I believe that to be a rarity these days.

Lawyer with a heart

Thanks again! You are truly a Gem! I know a myriad number of lawyers and they would not have done as much as you have, and definitely not for free. Before i called you I looked you up on Super lawyers and Avvo. I read all 29 of your reviews plus the statement you wrote “It’s all about you” referring to your clients, of course. I did my home work. I’ve researched about a hundred lawyers in all, and you are the best by far. I’ve reached out to lawyers that never called me back, and some of them I have know my entire twenty-five year career as a Police Officer. I feel somewhat defeated now simply because you are the best, and I will only be going backwards with any other lawyers. Everything they wrote about you is true, and everything you wrote in your statement is also true. I’m a firm believer that nothing we do in life is a mistake, and our meeting wasn’t by chance, I am honored that I met you; a lawyer w/ a heart. Thanks for being you. And next time I bump my head I will be calling you.

Our Hero

Sandra Worthington,Esq., 12 years ago, 2006, handled a dog bite case for our grandaughter and received a generous settlement for her. TD Bank had a CD in our granddaughters name and required legal papers , that were available and given to them at the time of the CD maturity. Sandra, on vacation at the time, performed all requests, including advising us on the judge who handled the court order, Honorable Stanley Ott, S.J. who responsed to the banks request, although legally not required. The bank issue was resolved in two weeks, which should have been done in two hours. We would not be able to navigate without her expertise., again while Ms Worthington was on vacation and at no charge! We recommend to all, Ms Worthington is our hero.

Lucky to have Attorney Worthington

Sandra was contacted by my son-in-law after my dog was attacked by his neighbor's pitbulls. He and my daughter were watching my dog while I was on vacation. My daughter and grandson were hurt while trying to protect my dog and their dog when the pitbull came onto their property. Sadly, my dog died from his injuries. My daughter's dog was critically injured but has recovered after many months of healing. Sandra is very familiar with this type of tragedy. She was empathetic and understanding. She explained to us immediately what would happen through the courts and insurance company She was professional and timely. I would highly recommend Sandra for anyone looking for an excellent attorney.

Excellent

I reached out to Sandra on this site as I had been in a serious car accident and wanted to be sure someone would look out for my rights and interests. Within 15 minutes of writing to Sandra, she contacted me via phone (after hours) and explained what my rights were and how the process worked with regards to my injuries, rights, etc. Things are in the early stages with my healing etc. but I highly recommend Sandra, as she is extremely knowledgeable, is very organized , and is easy to talk and deal with .

Knowledgeable and warm personality

Sandra Worthington did an excellent job in representing me after a driver ran a red light, totalling my car and injuring me.

Sandra kept me in the loop as my case progressed, always returned my calls and kept costs as low as possible. We recently reached a settlement and I would highly recommend Sandra to anyone needing a personal injury attorney.

I am lucky I found Sandra. The best attorney I have ever worked with

Sandra represented me in a case where I was involved in a car accident caused by a drunk driver. I called a few attorneys and quickly settled on Sandra to assist me. She immediately started an organized effort to get my case moving forward, advising me every step of the way on what to expect and what I needed to be doing. There were no surprises. She is amazing in her knowledge of the law and victims' rights. I will be recommending her to any family and friends that have a need for a fantastic attorney.

Dedicated and professional.

Sandra was always quick to reply to emails from day one. She provided me with not only her opinion- but also explained a lot of complicated law processes that were going on throughout my case. She wanted me to stay informed. She was very organized and made the case on my end pretty effortless. I enjoyed how often Sandra used her intellect to invest the best arguments for my case. I often felt like she was not only working hard for me- but she also cared. Investigators and photographers were just all brought straight to me. It was a great experience and the end result was not only a won case- but also a great professional relationship. Hiring Sandra is the first step to succeeding in your case.

She wrote “The Pennsylvania Accident Book” which will be published in 2011, “The PA Dog Bite Book: Bitten” and other articles.

"I endorse this lawyer. I first met Sandra B. Worthington about twelve years ago, shortly before my retirement from the active practice of law. My practice did not include trial duties. I have retained an office for various non-legal matters in the same building in which Ms. Worthington practices personal injury law, including motor vehicle accident cases and all kinds of premises liability cases. In this period I have referred and/or suggested to several of my clients and friends to use Ms. Worthington’s services for personal injury cases. All of them have been pleased and satisfied with her efforts. Ms. Worthington moves quickly, keeps in close contact with clients, clearly analyzes the cases which are presented to her, speaks directly, frankly, and frequently about anticipated results – and succeeds. I give her my highest recommendation."
