OHIO AUTO ACCIDENT LAWYERS

You Shouldn’t Have to Pay for Car Accident Injuries You Didn’t Cause

Auto accidents of any kind are fundamentally traumatic events. Dealing with the insurance company, car repairs or vehicle replacement can be a massive headache on its own. Suffering an injury can make the process exponentially more frustrating and disruptive.

Whenever one person’s mistake, negligence or willful decision results in another person’s injury, the at-fault person should be held financially liable for the injured person’s medical care, lost wages and pain and suffering.

Motor vehicle accidents are one of the leading causes of injuries in the nation. Driving or being a passenger in a car is the most dangerous thing most people do daily. Cars are big, heavy and go fast. Collisions are common, and these collisions often result in serious injuries. You (and your insurance company) shouldn’t be forced to pay for someone else’s mistake.

We thoroughly investigate every client’s accident and develop a comprehensive case that allows us to aggressively negotiate and litigate on our client’s behalf.

Our Lawyers Fight for the Compensation You Deserve

Experience matters, and there are few teams of Ohio lawyers who can truthfully brag that they’ve won more than a billion dollars in settlements and verdicts for their clients. Our auto accident lawyers have long and storied careers in personal injury law.

The insurance company may attempt to paint you as the at-fault driver or argue that you can’t prove your version of events. Our team will thoroughly investigate your car accident and leave no stone unturned in pursuit of the truth.

How You Can Prepare for a Successful Car Crash Injury Claim

Document the Scene

One of the biggest mistakes people make immediately after being involved in a car accident is leaving the scene without taking pictures or video. Try to take pictures of the accident scene before the vehicles are moved. At the very least you should take pictures of your vehicle damage and the other driver’s vehicle damage. Also try to take pictures of any debris or skid marks that may have resulted from the crash.

See a Doctor Right Away

Car accident injury claims are based on your medical costs. If you don’t go to see a doctor to get diagnosed and treated, it can be incredibly difficult to tie the car accident to any adverse results you’ve suffered. The insurance company will question the validity of your claim if you wait for days or weeks before seeing a doctor or if you don’t see a doctor at all.

Don’t Admit Fault

Other than checking on the occupants of the other vehicle to ascertain whether they require emergency assistance, you should minimize your discussions with them. Trade insurance information, tell police your side of events (if necessary) and then focus on documenting the scene, collecting evidence, and seeking medical attention if needed. Avoid discussing fault or making statements that could be interpreted as admissions of liability.
