Ohio Car Accident Lawyer
Insurance companies have armies of adjusters trained to pay you as little as possible. We level the field — and we make sure you get paid full value for your injuries.
Ohio Car Accident Claims: At a Glance
- Deadline: an Ohio car accident lawsuit must generally be filed within 2 years of the crash (Ohio Rev. Code § 2305.10).
- Ohio is an at-fault state: the negligent driver — through their insurer — is responsible for your damages.
- Ohio's minimum liability coverage is only $25,000 per person / $50,000 per crash (Ohio Rev. Code § 4509.51) — serious injuries routinely exceed it, which is why underinsured-motorist coverage and third-party claims matter.
- Comparative fault: your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault, and barred if you are more than 50% at fault (Ohio Rev. Code § 2315.33).
- Cost: no attorney fee unless we recover compensation for you.

Understanding Your Rights After a Car Accident in Ohio
