Timing matters more than most people realize after a car accident.

In Ohio, you generally have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. But waiting doesn't just risk missing the deadline - it can weaken your case.

Evidence disappears. Witnesses forget details. Insurance companies use delays against you.

The strongest cases start with early action: documenting the scene, getting medical attention, and having an attorney in your corner before the other side builds their narrative.

If you're wondering whether it's too late - it probably isn't. But the sooner we talk, the more we can do for you!
