Accidents happen every day in Bairdstown — on the roads, in businesses, at work sites, and in homes. When someone's negligence is responsible for your injuries, you have rights under Ohio law. The Henry Law Firm helps Wood County injury victims understand those rights and pursue every dollar of compensation they're owed.
Injuries Are More Costly Than They First Appear
Emergency room bills are just the beginning. Follow-up appointments, specialist referrals, physical therapy, lost work time, future medical needs, and the impact on your quality of life can multiply the true cost of your Bairdstown injury several times over. An attorney ensures all of these damages are accounted for.

Accidents can happen anywhere in Bairdstown and the surrounding Wood County area. Whether you were injured in a car accident on a local highway, suffered a slip and fall at a Bairdstown business, or experienced medical malpractice at a local healthcare facility, our attorneys can help you pursue the compensation you need to recover.
Ohio is an at-fault state, meaning the person responsible for causing your accident is liable for your damages. However, insurance companies will fight to minimize your payout. Having an experienced Bairdstown personal injury attorney on your side levels the playing field.

Ohio Personal Injury Laws You Should Know
Ohio follows a modified comparative negligence system. Under Ohio Revised Code § 2315.33, you can recover compensation as long as you are 50% or less at fault for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are 20% at fault and your damages total $100,000, you would receive $80,000.
Statute of Limitations
In Ohio, you generally have two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit (Ohio Revised Code § 2305.10). For wrongful death claims, the deadline is two years from the date of death. Missing this deadline can permanently bar your claim, so it's important to contact a Bairdstown personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
Ohio's modified comparative negligence law (ORC § 2315.33) allows you to recover compensation as long as you are 50% or less at fault. Your award is reduced by your percentage of fault — but you can still recover. Insurance companies routinely try to inflate your share of fault to reduce their payout. The Henry Law Firm fights these assignments aggressively.
