A Smarter Way to Get Compensation in Ohio

Injury claims in Ohio depend on more than fault alone. Medical documentation, timing under Ohio’s statute of limitations, insurance coverage, and how damages are supported all play a role in whether a claim moves forward or stalls.

Cases supported through our network are evaluated using a data-informed approach that considers prior injury outcomes, insurer behavior, and how similar claims have been resolved across Ohio courts. This allows partner attorneys to assess value early, document injuries properly, and pursue compensation grounded in evidence, not assumptions.

All representation is offered on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are no upfront legal fees.

Ohio Personal Injury FAQs

Common questions about Ohio personal injury laws, timelines, and what injured individuals should know before moving forward.

If your question isn’t answered here or you’d like tailored guidance after an injury, schedule a free consultation.

What is the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in Ohio?

Most Ohio personal injury claims must be filed within two years from the date of injury. This includes car accidents and slip and fall cases. Certain claims, such as those involving wrongful death or government entities, may follow different rules.

How does fault work under Ohio personal injury laws?

Ohio follows a modified comparative negligence system. Compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault, and recovery is barred if you are found more than 50 percent responsible for the injury.

Do I need an Ohio car accident lawyer if the insurance company already contacted me?

Insurance companies often evaluate claims quickly, sometimes before the full scope of injuries or future treatment is known. Speaking with an Ohio car accident lawyer can help determine whether an early offer reflects how similar injuries are valued under Ohio law.

Are slip and fall injuries handled differently in Ohio?

Yes. Ohio premises liability claims often depend on property control, notice of hazards, and whether reasonable steps were taken to prevent injury. Warehouse and commercial slip and fall cases may involve additional documentation and third-party responsibility.

Will my Ohio personal injury case go to trial?

Most Ohio personal injury cases resolve through settlement after liability and damages are evaluated. Trials are relatively uncommon and are usually considered only when disputes remain unresolved despite strong documentation.

How do contingency fees work in Ohio personal injury cases?

Most Ohio personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. Legal fees are typically paid only if compensation is recovered, allowing injured individuals to pursue claims without upfront legal costs.
