Time limits depend on the claim and circumstances. Evidence may be lost before a filing deadline arrives. Read Ohio filing-deadline law ↗
YOUR CASE / OUR INVESTIGATION
A police report starts the investigation. It does not finish it.
The driver accounts may conflict. The insurer may challenge the treatment or blame you for the collision. We compare those accounts with the scene, damage, witnesses and available recordings.
For a downtown Cincinnati collision, a street address is not enough. The intersection, signal phase, direction of travel and position of each vehicle help explain what happened.

↗QUESTIONS / ANSWERS
Cincinnati car accident questions.
01How do I obtain a Cincinnati crash report?
Start with the investigating agency. Cincinnati Police’s records page explains its request process; reports handled by another agency may need to be requested there.
02What if the other driver denies fault?
Preserve photographs, witness information and the report number. We compare the statements against physical evidence and available video.
03Can I recover if I share some responsibility?
Ohio comparative-fault law may reduce damages and generally bars recovery when your share of fault exceeds 50%. The allocation depends on the facts.
04What if the other driver is uninsured?
Your own policy may contain uninsured-motorist coverage. Coverage, exclusions and notice requirements require review of the actual policy.
