You're Paying for Someone Else's Mistake
You did nothing wrong — yet now you're the one dealing with emergency room visits, follow-up appointments, missed work, and the stress of an insurance claim. The at-fault driver's insurer wants to close your case fast and cheap. Without an attorney, most victims settle for a fraction of what their case is actually worth.

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 Ottawa Hills attorney today.

If the other driver was uninsured or underinsured and you have UM/UIM coverage on your Ohio auto policy, The Henry Law Firm can help you make a claim under your own insurance — and will fight your insurer just as hard as we would fight the at-fault driver's insurer. You paid for that coverage; you deserve to use it.
