Westerville has routinely been called one of Ohio’s best places to live. There is plenty to do, but you still get the quaint hometown feel of a small community with the larger city of Columbus only a stone’s throw away.
It is hard to imagine anything horrible happening in such a serene location. Unfortunately, life-changing accidents can happen anywhere. When they do, the personal injury attorneys at Oliver Law Office can help.
At Oliver Law Office, we aggressively pursue fair compensation to cover your injuries and financial losses when you’re injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault. We strongly believe you shouldn’t be left holding the bill when someone else’s careless actions caused you harm.
If you are ready to recover the money you deserve and rebuild your life after an accident, contact the legal team at Oliver Law Office for help. We proudly serve the Westerville community and offer a free case evaluation to help you learn more about your legal options.
Most people attempt to handle their accident claim solo. While this strategy seems to suggest that you’ll save money, it can cause stress and anxiety and make you lose out on the compensation you deserve. Insurance companies are for-profit entities.
They want you to settle your claim quickly and for as little money as possible because it saves them time and money, keeping profits high. They may also use strong-arm tactics to get you to settle for less than what you deserve while in a vulnerable physical and financial position.
You need an attorney who can fight these tactics and pursue maximum compensation for your injuries and financial losses. Individuals seeking legal assistance to resolve their issues tend to recover more money than those who handle their claims without help.
Working with an attorney is also a wise strategy because if an insurer fails to treat you fairly, your attorney can prepare a personal injury lawsuit.

You want compensation for your injuries. That’s not greedy. That’s fair. However, calculating the overall value of an accident case can be challenging without the help of an experienced personal injury attorney. Numerous factors can affect the value of your case, from the severity of your injuries to the cause of the accident. An attorney takes the time to carefully evaluate your situation and calculate the overall value of your economic and non-economic losses.
While the value of each case varies based on the circumstances of the situation, in general, accident victims can pursue compensation for the following:
Medical expenses
Lost wages
Loss of earning capacity
Property damage
Emotional distress
Disfigurement
Pain and suffering
Ohio law limits or caps how much money an individual can recover for non-economic damages such as pain and suffering. Individuals can only recover $250,000 or three times the amount of their economic damages, which are measurable losses like medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages cannot exceed $350,000 per plaintiff. However, there is no non-economic damage cap when an individual suffers catastrophic injuries defined as permanent physical deformity, loss of the use of a limb, loss of bodily organ system, or permanent physical function injuries that leave a person unable to care for themselves.
A personal injury attorney can help you understand how the specifics of your case may affect the value of your case.
Being hurt in an accident can be overwhelming. It may be a struggle managing daily tasks, let alone fighting for the money you need to cover your accident-related expenses. However, Ohio law limits the time you have to file a personal injury lawsuit against an at-fault party to two years from the accident date.
Wait too long to speak to an attorney; valuable evidence to support your case may be lost or destroyed. Waiting too long to file a case significantly reduces the chances of recovering maximum compensation. Attempting to file a lawsuit after the statutory period expires means you lose leverage against an insurer and the ability to have your case heard in court.
