- Proof of income: Employment and salary history records can document the income you lost while recovering from your injuries.

Our law office will compile, sort, and organize your evidence collection. We also present it to the at-fault party and their representatives along with a settlement demand letter.

The Impact of Ohio’s Statute of Limitations on Your Right to Seek Compensation
A primary benefit of hiring our Mansfield injury attorneys is our ability to interpret and comply with the state’s filing deadline. This is the general rule, though there are exceptions. In general, you have:
- Two years to file a personal injury lawsuit, per Ohio Revised Code Section 2305.10
- Two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit, per Ohio Revised Code Section 2125.02
The statute of limitations can fluctuate, often making compliance difficult without legal representation. If you do not file on time, the court could bar you from filing, leaving you with no further legal recourse. Our accident lawyers will protect your right to sue for damages by filing your lawsuit on time.
