How Our Huber Heights Car Accident Lawyers Can Help You
Typically, it is during your free case consultation we explain how our Huber Heights car accident lawyers can help with your claim.
Each case is unique, but in general, our process is the following:
- Maintain open and honest communication with you so that you can participate in the planning of your case and receive timely updates
- Communicate on your behalf with all involved parties
- Investigate the accident for evidence identifying the at-fault party—this may include accident reconstruction, interviewing eyewitnesses, collecting CCTV footage, gathering copies of police reports and medical records
- Filing an accident claim with the insurance company and negotiating for an appropriate settlement
- File a car accident lawsuit and represent you in court if settlement negotiations fail to meet your needs
While most accident claims are settled through negotiations, an insurance company may occasionally deny or undervalue a claim or prolong negotiations, causing financial losses to accumulate and making it harder to pursue a fair settlement.
The Last Thing You Should Worry About Is How You’re Going To Pay For Your Medical Bills.

How Fault Is Determined in Your Huber Heights Car Accident
Proving fault in your car accident requires gathering a thorough collection of compelling evidence. Our legal team will take care of this crucial task, so you and your family do not have to.
The case file we build will include:
- The official police report, along with any attachments such as descriptions and diagrams
- Medical records detailing your injuries, their severity, and how they were caused
- Statements from witnesses and relevant experts, including medical and mechanical professionals
- Photographs of your injuries, the accident scene, and the vehicles involved
- The at-fault driver’s insurance policy, including coverage details and the claim-filing process
Additionally, we gather evidence that demonstrates the financial impact of the motor vehicle accident, such as medical bills, car repair or replacement estimates, and documentation of lost income.
Recovering Economic and Non-Economic Damages after Your Accident
If you suffered losses because someone else was driving negligently or recklessly, you deserve to have those losses redressed by the at-fault party. The insurance company or court will consider economic and non-economic damages as a way to make things right for you.
No amount of compensation will make up for a catastrophic loss, but the money can help you choose the medical care you need and set you on the path to a future that works for you and your family.
Economic Damages
This type of loss includes verifiable financial costs you have due to the auto accident, for example:
- Ambulance
- Emergency room and hospital stay
- Surgery
- Medical specialists
- Medications
- Lab work and diagnostic imaging
- Rehab and physical therapy
- Mental health therapy
- Aftercare
- Future medical care
- Vehicle and personal property replacement or repair
- Income lost during recovery, and/or loss of future earning capacity
Non-Economic Damages
These losses are subjective and can include:
- Pain and suffering, such as physical pain and emotional trauma related to the accident and injuries
- Depression and anxiety
- Inconvenience and discomfort of a disability or disfigurement
- Diminished quality of life
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of or change in relationships with friends and family
- Loss of consortium
- Worsening of prior injuries
Discuss your damages with our Huber Heights car accident attorney. It is important to include all your losses in your compensation claim before we file it with the insurance company.

Ohio Law Limits Your Time to File a Car Accident Lawsuit Against the At-Fault Party
If negotiations with the insurance company fail to reach an agreement that meets your needs, the next legal option when seeking damages is to file a personal injury lawsuit and seek a compensation verdict or judgment.
The Ohio statute of limitations allows you two years from the date of your accident to begin legal action, per Ohio Revised Code Section 2305.10. If you should miss this deadline, you may be barred from seeking compensation through the courts. Our legal team handles all administrative tasks for your case. We will ensure that no deadlines pass without taking necessary action.
