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 Lake Buckhorn personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
The full value of a personal injury claim in Lake Buckhorn includes: economic damages (medical expenses, lost wages, future medical costs, lost earning capacity, property damage) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, loss of consortium).
