Car Accidents in Ohio
Ohio experiences a significant number of vehicle collisions every year. In 2022 alone, more than 265,000 auto accidents were reported throughout the state. These incidents can have sudden, devastating effects on the lives of those involved, especially when serious injuries occur. Thousands of individuals in Ohio are injured in car accidents annually, leaving many to deal with the physical, emotional, and financial consequences.
If you have been hurt in a car accident, you have the right to seek compensation from the responsible party. This compensation can help cover various damages, such as medical expenses, vehicle repairs, lost wages, and more. However, to recover compensation successfully, you must prove that the other party was at fault for the accident.
Ohio uses a modified comparative negligence system to determine compensation. This means that if you are found partially at fault for the accident, your compensation will be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you. For instance, if you are 20% at fault, your compensation will be reduced by 20%. Because of this system, it is important to have an experienced team of Cleveland car accident attorneys working on your behalf. Your attorney will investigate the crash, collect evidence, and build a solid case to establish the other party’s liability.
