Q1: What should I do if the other driver doesn't have insurance?
If the other driver is uninsured, you can still pursue compensation through your own insurance policy if you have uninsured motorist coverage. Our team can help you explore all available options to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
Q2: How can I prove the other driver was at fault?
Proving fault involves gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, traffic camera footage, and accident scene photos. Our attorneys will conduct a thorough investigation to build a strong case on your behalf.
Q3: What if I am partially at fault for the accident?
Even if you are partially at fault, you may still be entitled to compensation under Ohio's comparative negligence law. The amount of compensation you receive will be reduced by your percentage of fault. We will work to minimize your liability and maximize your recovery.
Q4: How soon after an accident should I contact an attorney?
It is crucial to contact an attorney as soon as possible after an accident. Early involvement allows us to gather evidence, speak with witnesses, and navigate the legal process more effectively. Prompt action can significantly impact the outcome of your case.
Q5: Can I claim for emotional distress after a vehicle accident?
Yes, you can claim for emotional distress as part of your compensation. Vehicle accidents can cause significant emotional trauma, and we will work to ensure that all aspects of your suffering are considered in your claim.
