Your Personal Injury Lawyer Will Pursue the Best Possible Compensation for You
When your personal injury lawyer assesses the monetary value of your claim, they will evaluate your personal injury case based on your injuries’ severity and the toll they take on your life. The economic and non-economic damages you may be able to recover include:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Current and future lost wages
- Property damage or destruction
- Diminished property value
- Impairment and disfigurement
- Physical pain and suffering
- Mental and emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Families who experienced the loss of a loved one can recover wrongful death damages, including funeral and burial expenses and loss of income and domestic support.
Your Lawyer Will Clarify Filing Deadlines and Contributory Negligence Laws
You have a deadline for filing your lawsuit. In general:
- You have two years to meet the personal injury statute of limitations, according to Ohio Revised Code Section 2305.10
- You have two years to meet the wrongful death statute of limitations, according to Ohio Revised Code Section 2125.02
However, in some cases, the amount of time you have to file your lawsuit can vary based on its outcome, the injured party’s age, and other factors. Your Sunbury accident attorney can help you determine the specific deadline in your case and ensure you file your lawsuit on time.
In addition to clarifying the appropriate filing deadline, we can also protect your right to compensation if the negligent party alleges you caused or contributed to the accident. Per Ohio Revised Code Section 2315.33, you can recover damages as long as less than 50% of the accident’s fault was yours.
Our legal team will help you fight for a fair distribution of negligence and pursue full compensation if your actions did not contribute to the accident.
