When to Call a Dublin Catastrophic Injury Lawyer
“Recovering” from a catastrophic injury often requires victims to learn how to live with new limitations. Burns can impact a person’s mobility, as can broken bones, temporary paralysis, and spinal cord injuries. Traumatic brain injuries can even impact a person’s memory, physical stability, and ability to meet their daily needs.
Treatments for the wide range of catastrophic injuries that plague Ohio’s accident survivors are as varied as the injuries themselves. Can you really fit legal action around physical therapy, surgeries, and the process of going back to work? With help from a Dublin catastrophic injury attorney, the answer is “yes.”
We recommend contacting a catastrophic injury lawyer within a few weeks of a catastrophic accident. The sooner you contact us, the faster we can protect your legal rights and begin building your case for compensation.

How to Work With a Dublin Catastrophic Injury Lawyer
Calling a Dublin, OH, catastrophic injury attorney doesn’t lock you into legal action. You can attend a free case consultation to discuss what the legal process looks like and how it might relieve your financial burden.
Should you decide to proceed with legal representation, our team can provide you with a range of services, including investigative outreach and legal mathematics.
We’ll also make sure you complete all of the work necessary to spearhead your catastrophic injury claim before your statute of limitations expires. Ohio dictates the amount of time victims have to act after a catastrophic injury through its personal injury statute of limitations. Survivors and their representatives have no more than two years to build a claim against bad actors.
Working With Insurance Companies
The party responsible for your catastrophic injury may have insurance designed to protect them from the financial fallout of an accident like yours. If so, you may have the right to file an insurance claim with a relevant provider. However, consider getting in touch with an attorney before you make your case.
Insurance claims adjusters only serve their companies. They don’t want to pay you, and they’ll use underhanded techniques to deny you support. If you work with an attorney to file your claim and mediate conversations with claims adjusters, you can stay one step ahead of those bad-faith tactics.
Working with an attorney also preserves your right to legal action should an insurance provider deny your claim.
Compiling and Filing a Personal Injury Claim
Filing a personal injury claim after a catastrophic injury requires you to:
- Gather enough evidence of fault to meet or exceed Ohio’s burden of proof
- Calculate the value of your economic and non-economic losses
- Format your claim to meet the standards set by Ohio’s civil courts
- File your claim before your statute of limitations expires
This process gets easier to tackle when you have an experienced lawyer on your side. Our lawyers oversee your claim-building process so you can prioritize the physical therapies and other symptom-relieving treatments.
Deciding How to Proceed With Your Case
Once you know more about your right to compensation and the negligence that led to your losses, it’s time to file your claim. Filing your claim gives you the right to negotiate for a settlement, take your case to trial, or experiment with a combination of the two approaches.
Our team does everything in our power to give you control over how your case progresses. If you’d rather not meet with a liable party face-to-face, we can prepare you for the different stages of a civil trial. If you’d prefer to wrap up negotiations quickly, we can contact the defense to arrange a private meeting.
