What Compensation Can You Get After an Injury in Ohio?
After an accident, Ohio law allows injury victims to seek payment from the at-fault party for financial losses and personal losses.
In these cases, damages might take on economic and non-economic forms, such as:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Lost income while you recover
- Reduced ability to earn money in the future
- Property damage costs
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Scarring
- Loss of companionship for spouses
In all, these damages should make you whole and address all you’ve lost since the accident and wouldn’t have lost but for your injuries.
How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Toledo Personal Injury Lawyer?
Personal injury cases usually contain contingency fee arrangements, where you pay no upfront costs. Rather, the legal fee is a set percentage taken from your final settlement or verdict. If your lawyer does not win money for you, you owe no legal fees.
The Law Office of Michael J. Tremoulis offers free consultations and contingency pricing for all personal injury clients.
Can You Still Get Money if You Are Partially at Fault for Your Injuries in Ohio?
Under Ohio’s modified comparative fault rule, you can still get compensation as long as you are not more than 50% responsible for the accident. However, your payout will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
For example, a $200,000 award reduced by 20% fault leaves you with $160,000. If you are 51% or more at fault, state law prevents you from recovering any money.
How Do You Prove a Personal Injury Claim in Toledo, Ohio?
To recover compensation after an accident, you generally need to show that someone else’s negligence caused your injuries. That usually means proving the other party owed you a duty of care, failed to act reasonably, and caused you harm as a result.
Evidence that may help prove your claim includes:
- Accident reports
- Photos and videos
- Medical records
- Witness statements
- Surveillance footage
- Expert testimony
Insurance companies may challenge who caused the accident or how badly you were hurt. A personal injury lawyer in Toledo can build a claim for the compensation you deserve.
How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
In Ohio, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Wrongful death lawsuits also have a two-year limit, with the clock starting on the date of death.
If you miss this deadline, you will lose your right to sue in court. Your case will be dismissed as time-barred. Specific rules can alter these timelines, so it is important to talk to a lawyer as soon as possible to comply with the limitations rules.
