Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in Ohio?
In Ohio, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the injury. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to sue. Exceptions exist for cases involving minors or government entities, so consult a lawyer promptly.
How does Ohio modified comparative fault rule affect my case?
Ohio uses a modified comparative fault rule. You can recover damages only if you are less than 50 percent at fault for the accident. If you are found partially at fault, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are 50 percent or more at fault, you cannot recover anything.
What damages can I recover in a Middleburg Heights personal injury case?
You can recover economic damages like medical bills, lost wages, and property damage. You may also recover non-economic damages for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. Ohio does not cap most personal injury damages, but medical malpractice claims have specific limits.
