A car accident in Mendon can upend your life in seconds. Medical bills pile up, you can't work, and the insurance company is already working to minimize your claim. The Henry Law Firm fights to make sure the responsible party pays the full cost — not just what the insurer offers.
You Shouldn't Have to Navigate This Alone
Dealing with your own recovery, your family's needs, and an insurance claim at the same time is overwhelming. Most of our clients had never hired a lawyer before their accident. The Henry Law Firm makes the process straightforward — we handle every call, every form, and every negotiation so you can focus on getting better.

Your Legal Rights Under Ohio Law
Ohio's comparative negligence law (Ohio Revised Code § 2315.33) allows you to recover compensation even if you bear some responsibility, as long as your fault doesn't exceed 50%. The statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years. Don't delay — contact a Mendon attorney today.
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're Not Afraid to Go to Trial
Insurance companies know which law firms will settle for anything and which will take cases to trial. The Henry Law Firm's track record in Ohio courtrooms means insurers take our demand letters seriously — because they know we mean it when we say we'll go to trial to get our clients a fair result.
