Where Portsmouth Injury Cases Are Handled
Portsmouth is the seat of Scioto County at the Ohio River on US-52. Personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits arising in Portsmouth are generally filed in the Scioto County Court of Common Pleas. Knowing the local court, its judges and procedures, and the insurers and defense firms that operate in Scioto County is part of how we build a winning case for Portsmouth clients. With a population of about 18,000, Portsmouth and the surrounding Scioto County communities generate the kind of traffic, workplaces, and medical facilities where serious injuries happen every day.
At the Ohio River confluence, Portsmouth anchors Scioto County where US-23 meets US-52.
The crashes and injuries we handle for Portsmouth clients happen across the area's busiest corridors — US-23, US-52 and SR-104 — and at local workplaces, intersections, and medical facilities. We also represent injury victims throughout the Portsmouth area, including New Boston, Wheelersburg, South Shore (KY) and Lucasville.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a medical malpractice lawyer in Portsmouth cost?
Nothing up front. The Albenze Firm handles medical malpractice cases on a contingency fee — you pay no attorney fee unless we recover compensation for you. The consultation is always free.
How long do I have to file a medical malpractice claim in Portsmouth?
Ohio sets strict deadlines (statutes of limitations) that vary by claim type, and they can run quickly. Evidence also disappears fast. Call us today so we can protect your right to compensation before a deadline bars your claim.
What is my case worth?
Every case is different. Value depends on the severity of your injuries, medical costs, lost income, long-term care needs, and the impact on your life. We build your case to capture the full value — not the lowball number the insurance company offers.
Do I really need a lawyer for a medical malpractice claim?
Insurance companies have teams of adjusters and lawyers working to pay you as little as possible. Studies consistently show represented claimants recover more — even after fees. We take that fight on so you can focus on recovering.
