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 New Albany personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
Most personal injury settlements in Ohio are confidential, but certain types of cases — particularly those involving government defendants or publicly traded companies — may become part of the public record. The Henry Law Firm advises every New Albany client about confidentiality expectations before any settlement is reached.
