Bringing a successful car accident claim means bringing it against the right person or business. Through our in-depth investigation, we find out who caused the car accident and why. We also look for whether anyone else might be liable for your injuries, such as the vehicle’s true owner or the driver’s employer.
If the insurer approves your claim, the next step is to agree on a car accident settlement. The insurer might make a low offer. It’s up to you to decide whether to accept or negotiate, and you have the right to ask for more compensation. An attorney experienced in handling car accident claims and negotiating settlements can help.
Sometimes accident victims benefit from filing a lawsuit. While most car accident claims settle, a lawsuit shows the insurance company you’re serious and lets you collect more evidence.

At KNR, we can handle every aspect of your car accident claim so you can focus on getting back to your life. Let us guide you and give your case the best possible chance at recovering the maximum.

No two car accidents are the same. How much your accident is worth is generally based on your medical bills, lost income, out-of-pocket expenses, pain and suffering, and other ways it impacted your life. Typically, the more severe your injuries, the more your case is worth.
The Ohio Revised Code 2305.10 states that you have two years after the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. After that, you are more than likely ineligible for compensation as the court will likely dismiss the case.
You need to show the other driver who caused the accident due to their negligence. In some cases, you may prove the other driver was speeding, distracted by their phone, or impaired. Evidence can be video, witness testimony, the police officer’s conclusions, and the damage to your vehicle.
Even if the other driver doesn’t have insurance or insufficient coverage for the harm they caused in a car accident, you still have options. It can be complicated, but you might be covered by your own uninsured motorist insurance or able to pursue a lawsuit against the driver directly.
Insurance companies are profit-driven businesses. Their first offers in car accidents are usually for less than what it’s worth. You should work with a lawyer to determine if a settlement offer not only covers your existing losses but accounts for your future needs, like medical you’ll need later, wages you’ll miss out on, and others.
