Serious injuries change lives — and the costs can be overwhelming. The Henry Law Firm represents Rittman injury victims on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you. Free consultations available 24/7.
The Insurance System Is Not Designed to Fairly Compensate You
Insurance companies are businesses. Their adjusters are trained to minimize claims, find reasons to deny coverage, and close files as quickly and cheaply as possible. Without an experienced Rittman personal injury attorney in your corner, most injury victims leave money on the table — sometimes a lot of money.
Do You Need a Personal Injury Attorney in Rittman?
Accidents can happen anywhere in Rittman and the surrounding Wayne County area. Whether you were injured in a car accident on a local highway, suffered a slip and fall at a Rittman business, or experienced medical malpractice at a local healthcare facility, our attorneys can help you pursue the compensation you need to recover.
Ohio is an at-fault state, meaning the person responsible for causing your accident is liable for your damages. However, insurance companies will fight to minimize your payout. Having an experienced Rittman personal injury attorney on your side levels the playing field.

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 Rittman 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 Rittman client about confidentiality expectations before any settlement is reached.
