There are other benefits of an attorney.
Most personal injury accidents happen because someone breached their duty of care. However, knowing that the other party is negligent and proving it are different. An attorney has the resources and skills to obtain and examine evidence of liability or wrongdoing.
You have the right to seek compensation for all the ways that someone’s negligence affects your life. A lawyer takes an objective, knowledgeable view of your economic and emotional losses. These damages usually include medical bills, lost pay, and pain and suffering.
Many of our attorneys worked in the insurance industry. We use this in-depth knowledge to pursue maximum compensation for our clients. Our lawyers are skilled negotiators and litigators. Should negotiations break down, we can take your case to court.

According to Ohio statutes, you have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. You should know that most personal injury lawsuits result from failed insurance negotiations. Be sure to give yourself enough time to explore all your options. It is in your best interest to contact an attorney as soon as possible.
Don’t mention fault to the insurance company to avoid complicating or jeopardizing your claim. Insurers try to blame the victim to avoid paying compensation. You’re encouraged to talk to a personal injury lawyer before speaking with an insurance company representative.
Liability is a complex legal issue. The burden of proof is on you to show that the other party caused your injuries. Instead of trying to collect and examine evidence on your own, let an experienced attorney help.
Several types of evidence can support your claim.
Pictures or videos of the accident scene, including photos of property damage and bodily injury, are invaluable. There might also be closed-circuit or security cameras with available videos depending on the location.
Try to collect the names and phone numbers of people at the scene. Sometimes the police interviews witnesses; if not, give the contact information to an attorney.
A police report officially documents the accident or injury. An attorney can gather essential facts from a police report, including observations and citations from responding officers.
Severely injured individuals don’t have to ask about going to the hospital – they are taken by ambulance from the scene. However, you could probably see your family doctor or go to a walk-in clinic for less serious injuries. Don’t hesitate to seek medical attention, especially if your pain worsens or you develop new symptoms.
You can strengthen your claim by including medical documentation from the hospital, clinic, or doctor’s office. This documentation might be an MRI or X-ray image, examination notes, or lab results. Insurance companies tend to red flag a claim that lacks clear proof of injuries. Keep track of your receipts and bills, and always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions. You could jeopardize your claim if you skip appointments or treatment.
