Your Legal Rights Under Ohio Law

Compensation Available
- Medical expenses — emergency care, surgery, rehabilitation, ongoing treatment
- Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Ohio requires drivers to carry minimum liability insurance of $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $25,000 for property damage. In serious accidents, these minimums are often inadequate. The Henry Law Firm explores every available source of compensation — including the at-fault driver's personal assets and your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage.
We Maximize Every Dollar of Compensation
Our case valuation accounts for every category of damages: current and future medical expenses, lost wages and earning capacity, pain and suffering, property damage, and loss of enjoyment of life. We don't settle until we're confident the number reflects the full impact of the accident on your life.
